Feeler: Gathering some interest. WSIR Track day
#41
Just send the drifters over to the balcony.
BTW I think the official track record (clockwise without the chicane) is a :58.802. It was set when I was there back in March by a guy named Steve in a Corvette. Maybe its been broken since.....but either way that is crazy fast for that little track!

If there is any drifting going on count me out. Rocks & Dirt make for a really slow track
I need all you guys' help to make this happen. Let's talk about the which month and day you guys want to go. Let's set a date so we can start this event planning.
By the way, my uncle is not trying to sell anything. just trying to help us out since im a very special person. hehehe!

ofcourse drift group would be separate/ different. we are just doing grip. Doesn't have to include drifting. The event is really going to be based on our decisions.
If there is both I'm out.
However it's HTM.....its not like your not gonna be sliding around those corners....It just point less to try to go around a track fast that is so tight when you have drifters dropping wheels and spinning off track every five mins. If they could stay on track I'd be cool with it.....theoretically they actually should clean the track surface up for us grip guys but I've never seen a group of drifters leave the track anything less than a mine feild after they've run.

Many times organizers will set up a grip / drift event at HTM. The drifters always bring way too much dirt, rocks and mud on to the track and it really slows it sown. Grip and drift doesn't mix well.

No worries though because this event will only be a Grip Event so no drifting.

Cool! AS long as my car is back up and running (probably sometime in mid June) I'm in.
