[projekt_s13]

OMG wow a drift event in nor cal. I just have to fix my clutch and im signing up.

YEA NCDA's Back Bitches!! lol

[!Zar!]

Hmm. Time to setup/break in my new chassis. Viva la NCDA.

I believe once you pay it's non refundable. You'd have to find someone willing to buy your spot then contact Don or Art.

Just a word to you water drinkers who love excuses.

[NemeGuero]

I'm thurrr

[gameeffect]

IM IN BABYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYyyyyy

[!Zar!]

New hotness will be there.

[YUNG DRIF]

the drift course looks pretty lame compared to the grip

[tknbkthrsdy4anfg]

I'll be there too!

[drift-it]

how many hours is this from san diego scott?

[tknbkthrsdy4anfg]

how many hours is this from san diego scott?

I'd say probably 10

[FaLKoN240]

how many hours is this from san diego scott?

Yeah, it's about 2 hours from me, and San Diego is about 8 so yeah, 10. :-/

[TRUENOCOUPE]

Thunderhill is NORCAL?

Didn't know that.

[tknbkthrsdy4anfg]

Thuderhill's Loc.
Look here (http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=Thunderhill+Raceway&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=42.631141,96.328125&ie=UTF8&ll=38.694085,-121.690063&spn=2.63658,6.020508&z=8&om=1)

[TRUENOCOUPE]

Thuderhill's Loc.
Look here (http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=Thunderhill+Raceway&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=42.631141,96.328125&ie=UTF8&ll=38.694085,-121.690063&spn=2.63658,6.020508&z=8&om=1)
Christ thats like the end of it.

I didn't know that was part of Glenn County.

[tknbkthrsdy4anfg]

Yea, it sucks to drive there, ssuper strait line.
the only plus is the speed limit is 70

[sw20>>s14]

since its highlighted, im assuming that theyre using 5 and not the bypass right? ccw or cw?

[tknbkthrsdy4anfg]

Oh man! Crows nest would be dope!

[LocalStreetHero]

YESSS! I'm there for sure. Track is only like 45 mins away from my house.

[dori_pho]

im down to go. turn 10 11 12 13 is bout to lit up by me that shit is hella fun.

[CleanS14]

Why Thursday...???

[adrift707]

Damn why does it have to happen when I'm in Atlantic City!! Dammit why must I have an education screw that!! I wanna drive lol

[My_SilVia]

Finally a drift event! I thought we were doomed.

I know I shouldn't be one to bitch, but 2&1/2 hors of driving. Plus the extra fees to get my car ready, and gas. Cha-ching!Cha-ching! Mad bank.

Why can't there be an event closer to frisco. Errgh

[Irukandji]

YESSS NCDA IS BACK IN THE GAMEEEEEEEEE

I'll be the first one there waiting for you bitches

[Irukandji]

Yeah, it's about 2 hours from me, and San Diego is about 8 so yeah, 10. :-/

Now you wish you lived in Canada eh? It's close to me

[supad0rk]

Thunderhill is NORCAL?

Didn't know that.

Anything north of sac can be considered Canada, I think there are a few states up there too... maybe...

[petex]

very interesting, my new car is almost done, i'd to test my new setup. July5th is far, might be wrecked by then, haha.

[Irukandji]

Anything north of sac can be considered Canada, I think there are a few states up there too... maybe...

No, you're wrong. Anything more than an hour drive north of San Mateo (aka Berkeley, Concord,) is considered Canada. Sacramento is the north pole

[supad0rk]

Dang I used to live near redding... I must have been on the other side of the world. It would have been niced if there was a T-Hill event because I was like 45 minutes away.

San Mateo is simply a void that connects San jose and San Fran... I know because I live in that void.

[FaLKoN240]

No, you're wrong. Anything more than an hour drive north of San Mateo (aka Berkeley, Concord,) is considered Canada. Sacramento is the north pole

Ben is a representative for Scott & Art California Mapping co. (TM)

[dct223]

HOLLA!!!! VIVA NCDA!!!!

the course may seem sorta weak sauce, but i had the most fun at grip and slip 2!! i love thunder hill!

[!Zar!]

Ding ding ding!

[projekt_s13]

No, you're wrong. Anything more than an hour drive north of San Mateo (aka Berkeley, Concord,) is considered Canada. Sacramento is the north pole

So im canadian, eh?

[Irukandji]

So im canadian, eh?

No, you're still American, you just live in Canada

[projekt_s13]

oh yea, haha

[LocalStreetHero]

(just to remind everyone of the trackk...)

hahaha memories!!

[santacruisin]

yeah its worth it just for the skidpad and cone course alone. Bring xtra tires just to lay some mad donuts. don't tell the Rivards (assholes).

[RBS14]

Nate lets find a 2 car trailor and do this! I've always wanted to drive Thunderhill. It's supposed to be bad arse.

[drift-it]

Hmmmm 10 hour drive what about rent a motor home/two car trailor so you drive and I make the smoothies

[RBS14]

that sounds like a plan. Now all we need is a big bag of money. anyone?

[bullitt4110]

I should be there.

[FaLKoN240]

Bumpity bump, the entry list is growing as time grows near!

[BigVinnie]

Or is it until the list is full?

[JDMPalace]

Bump, I hope more people register for this event !!

[LocalStreetHero]

[newb_driver]

c'mon ppl it will be a fun day with plenty of track time...


drifting on track + skid pad + mini course + grip driving = fun.

[blackcoupe]

im gonna suck so bad out there lol. how many tires you guys think we should bring there?

[newb_driver]

bring a few.. hahaha there's a skid pad sooooo plenty of tire burning

[JDMPalace]

This will be my first time on the track with my new setup, I'm not sure how the car is going to react, its going to be tons of donuts for me and I'm going to need some lessons for sure :rofl: :rofl:

[FaLKoN240]

[LocalStreetHero]

This event was beyond fun. I hope there will be MANY more grip & slip events in the future. I drifted faster and longer than I think i ever have on that track. Too bad my engine blew on the way home :*(
So if you guys saw a white S-13 on the side of a freeway exit, that was me. Had to get towed home. Bitter sweet as I am happy with the way I drove, but now my car doesnt run.

Thanx to every1 for making this event hella sick!!

[ilovedripting]

Was a good event NCDA/LP! Thanx! Hope all the $$$ worked out, and will be sure to whore out the flyer nextime to make sure all costs are covered. Lets see if we can do one with sub 100 degrees if possible... and make it so only drivers can park under the canopy!!!! haahaha
