Anyone want to go to a drift event?

So I'll be participating in the mid-west's biggest drift event come June 26-27 in Shawano, Wisconsin. This is going to be the best grass roots event for basically the entire summer in the regional area. If you guys want to come out and check it out, bullshit, get drunk, party, grill up some food, relax, blow panties off women, have a blast in cars entering into corners at 60mph sideways, come along!

I doubt anyone would take this offer up, but who knows, maybe someone in the Chicago area might go? Waymon and friends?

Are you in that tan car?

I am, this was a demo for the stock car race fans, like a good 400-500 people were on the stands watching us and looking on how we do the drifting thing. The crowd went fucking ape shit when they found this sport produces a shitload of tire smoke. The guys I'm drifting with are local and thus we were practicing to tandem together during the ASB which starts next weekend. (June 26-27)

You dude's should have gone, this shit was epic. I'm slow at finding the pictures and video but these are from the first day. I took off my body kit because I couldn't figure out the track and kept off coursing. These guys are the only guys that drive from Michigan with me, we tandemed together and won Silver, not bad considering none of us has driven the track before.

How fast do you go through tires? Just curious.

Oh, and grats!

THX!

We can go through tires in like 15 minutes, but luckily this course itself was alot slower speed and more technical than other big sweeper courses so it was alot easier to keep my tires cool. I would usually run for about 20 minutes then sit for 30 to let the tires cool down along with a proper heat cycle break in. So for this track, this weekend, only a pair, but come out to Autocity Raceway up here at Flint and I can go through a pair in 2 hours even taking the time to cool properly.
