Drift Event Hey guys,
I was talking to a great guy at Hyperfest this weekend (Hyper-Fest.com) reguarding renting the Shenadoah circuit at Summit Point Raceway in West Virginia for a drifting practice 101.
So far Summit has not rented just one track out since they enjoy renting the entire track out for 7k a day, but we have gotten them into talking about renting just one track out to a group for a day. So far we have 15 people from various drifting boards as well as 4 from my group. (all domestic from my group).
The rental would be on a weekday so the price would be cheaper per car. Is there anyone here (without a solid date in mind) that would be willing to guarantee at least interest in running your car? If you don't want to drift, you can always zip around the track in your own style. It's a LOT of fun and if you want to learn how to control your car sideways on a really challenging track, we'll have instructors on hand.
Let me know guys! PM me or post here to discuss. If we get enough interested parties we may be able to set up an normal rent time with Summit monthly which is very rare to accomplish.

Summit Point is a nice track.
Can't say I'm into the drifting thing however. Still taking the turns with nose pointed forward.
In fact, I still can't fathom why people waste their resources for the ice dancing of motorsports (purposefully drifting).

Although it IS cool to watch/do, I too have a problem with anything that is subjectively judged (but then again, I don't even get bracket racing, I think everything should be "heads up") I did not think there were any f bodies involved. Uber cool that you represent us!!

I'm not much interested in drifting, i just think of it as something to screw around and have fun on, not competition. but good luck

Alittle OT
