I did a lot of grip and drifted for a good 2-3 hours on a pair of tires. I only went through 4 all day and I was grip/drift all day. Depends on how you drive and what kind of tires.

What walls, are you guys runing on the oval out there??? If so, yea the banking there is a lil trickey in turn 3 & 4. But for the most part its all 2nd gear clutch kick,then feather it around. You can shift up to 3rd on the straight but gonna have to go back to 2nd. Or you can try and long sl!de it!!!!!!,be aware of the banking Watch your H2O temps !!!!:2f2f: :bigok:..
94Accord - if you have spares then bring em,if not then make sure your tires are fairly chunky,& monitor them through out the day!!!

I ALWAYS bring spares to the track. One never knows when an errant rock will find its way through the carcass...
If you have a VLSD or open diff, you can get away with bringing only one spare. If you have a clutch-type, you need two spares with the same OD to prevent undue wear on the diff should you lose a rear.
Don't worry about a floorjack, stands, or blocks to roll up on... I always bring mine and am more than happy to lend them to whomever needs them.

hows HTM as a beginning drift track? Or is it better to just do grip if youve never drifted for this track?

Its not to dangerous as long as you know your limits and dont think you are d1 style touge master :) I wouldnt drive there as a beginner drifter its very intimidating, grip is super fun up there though. If you are more like intermediate drifter you will be fine.

02-06-2007, 11:49 PM
boo =( i guess im gripping this time. Itll probably be better for me anyways.
UNITEDMASTER
02-07-2007, 02:15 AM
Hello,ya see this is is why the SRT Trackday rules. You can go out in the morn Beginner grip groups keep the speed down & learn the place,then turn around & give it a go with the DORI-DORI. If your gonna drift just take it one section of track at a time .PEACE
redsuns3838
02-07-2007, 03:22 AM
oh so you can switch off? maybe towards the end of the day I could try running with the drift group and just do some less risky turns... but we will have to see since I wont know if i have the balls to drift when Im actually on the track =P
Ill have fun gripping anyways. Oh yes is there a limit to number of drivers in the event?
SRT Motorsports
02-08-2007, 12:52 AM
Your fee allows you to drive in either group :) No need to go balls out first run :)

We did last time, I think everyone liked it so I dont see why they would go back. Probably decide at the drivers meet like last time.

How is this run?
1. Are grip drivers driving WITH others around(i hope so), making it more competitive and less of a timed event? (like the SOW course last time)
2. Does it just rotate every other hour from grip to drift? Can you be on the track for EVERY rotation or do you get X amount of time and can use it how you want?

Normally there are 3 groups, begginer grip, advanced grip, and drift. 15 minute run groups rotate every 15 minutes. Your in one of the run groups depending on skill level and if you are grip or drift.

San Diego. I usually just pay the day of because that leaves me some room for error just in case something happens and i can't make it. (like replacing fuel filter, fuel pump, maf sensor in a mcdonalds parking lot on the way to drift buffet...lol)

I am in. Signing up this weekend, when I have time.
Car should be well into the 2200lb area, considering it was 2303 with the heavy Optima and stock trunk lid as well as some miscellany. The ATS helps track times, too.
Will also be rocking the new CEs.
Anyone who has the time and funds NEEDS to go to this track day. Horsethief Mile, despite its reputation, is a fantastic track for learning how to really drive.

Only way off the track is when you run out of gas, new SRT rule.

Spectators are welcome, there is limited viewing though the way the pits are setup. And the pit area is pretty small so spectator parking is limited.

I'll try and remember to bring an extra helmet in case someone needs it.
If anyone is freaked about driving up there the morning of, you can always sleep on the floor of my hotel room the night before. However, I probably won't be in Lancaster until like 11pm.
PS- No riding motorcycles in the rooms at the Inn of Lancaster. They've already talked to me once about it.

think of it more as...style of driving changes every run group
___ mins grip, ___ mins drift, etc.
and there's no stoppin' unless you need to stop for a cool down / tire change

steve grips lol
im trying to call you guys now
I wasnt talking about Steve I was talking about the guy that was drifting in the grip group faster than the lotus' were gripping.
^ thanks steve that means a lot comming from you. I need to come up on sticky tires once and say f-drifting and just grip the whole day.
do i call in sick to work?
Yes I have done it plenty when I didnt have a chill job that supported my habbits drifting > job that doesnt care about drifting.

I'll be there, but my buddy and i were talking and wondering about liability...
If you nail a lotus on the track,accidentally of course, is there ANY liability or is it the "you're on a track, its a risk you take" thing?" Like i said, i've been to other events and will be at this one regardless, but just wondering.
2- SAN DIEGO GUYS- Any san diego guys getting a room or want to get a room and split it a few ways? My buddy and i are debating going up sat morning or friday... a cheap room would lead the the latter idea. any other cheap ass bastards driving far as hell?

There is only passing on one part of the course, its not a race unless the lotus is in tandem drift with you no reason you should hit it. But yeah thats between you and the owner, there is no real liability but he might be pretty pissed. I almost hit r33 skyling, s13 and an evo. But they all did something stupid in front of me :)

03-02-2007, 12:26 AM
So LEGALLY there is no liability? i'm sure there are SET RULES and LIABILITIES. Like i said, either way i'll be there. The last grip event at streets of willow had the same rules, but we still stayed bumper to bumper throught the turns and things could get hairy quick.
EDIT- IF ANYONE NEEDS A FENDER ROLLER, i have a brand new eastwood i will lend on track day for an extremely fair price. Just let me know if any of you guys want to use it so i can lug it up there...

Yeah we still drive close but usually with people we know I try to give other people a little room unless I am way faster and want around. HTM is a lot slower speed track most of it is 2nd gear top of 3rd most. So its not to hairy.

You dont need a jack someone will have one you can borrow at the track. Not sure what harbor frieghts return policy is.

:-/ i owned my car today... several times...
on the third lap of the day, i spun and owned my front end, banged up my rear quarter, and greatly bruised my ego...
but overall, it turns out it was just cosmetic damage...
and when everyone was leaving my car wouldn't start!! luckily we caught sam as he was leaving so he towed me outside of willow springs and then called AAA and got a flatbed about 1.5 hours later...
then some homies (driftsilvias13 and friends) helped out and replaced the alternator and power steering pulley and got my car running...

Another great track event, anyone who missed it should be dissapointed, it was an awesme event with more track time than you can handle! I had to conserve tires to make it through the day because there was soooo much track time! Tandem with Matt and Dan was cool wish I drifted more. Grip was great fun too, always fun to chase around faster cars with more grip than me :)

hmm i've been to just drift @ balcony and oval once each... so technically this was the 3rd time on the track... 1st time on horse thief mile...
i spun out plenty of times (seriously almost every run) @ balcony and oval and just couldn't get the hang of drifting, but all it did was get dust/dirt all over my car...
i figured since this is a grip event, i wouldn't spin out... i guess not :-/

Thanks Colin sent them over last night. I just measured my alignment on the front because the car has been horrid lately. Now I know why, already knew I had horrible toe out you can see it just by looking at the car. Castor 12+* both sides and Camber 4+* on both sides. Luckily I picked up the alignment tools on sat. and can do it before next event.
