Seriously Johny5, you'd think anyone TRULY interested in stepping up to Formula D would be willing to drive anywhere the had to. I agree with your assessment.......BUNCH 'O WHINERS!!!!!!

compared to utah -_-
Johny5
07-19-2008, 04:29 PM
utah isn't even far.
one of my biggest treks was from dallas to denver, denver to cali, cali to pittsburgh, pittsburgh to maryland, maryland to texas.
quit whining about events that are 1-2 states away, or just don't go.

No whining but some of us are on super tight budgets as is...the drive is not the problem it's the dent on the already depleted budget...some of us can barely afford to make it to the local events on our 99 cent store diets...
Will there be a qualifier in the LA area?...we do have HTM and Irwindale...
Maybe they only want ballers at Pro Am...

If you can't afford to qualify... why try to get a license to run Formula D with events across the country?

good point
that's 100x more expensive, and then there's the factor of getting your car legal

the results are I just got home .
damn 8 hour drive took 13 hours .
One of are tires came off the rx7 on the freeway and tor off the wide body bye :fawk:bye.
We jumped a intersection in Indeo doing 50 :eek:trying to get to in-N -out before they closed and cracked the tow bar.
We found power on the side of a building and welded it up in the parking lot.
But going to bed drunk on sunday day in a crap 20 dollar hotel after the sun came up priceless.:wtc:
Congrats top 9 drivers

Just made it home! Congrats to everyone.
Mad driving Big John, 15 hours straight of towing with just a short break for some sleep and then my 8 drift runs on a huge lot in the Arizona desert.
Taka and Hiro did a crazy cool course, fast left-hander initiation followed by this bump that had many cars lifting and many drivers straightening out.
Only a few of the 29(exact no?) drivers even made the course at all, basically these 9 won invitations. I am glad I am one of them so John didn't do all that driving for no reason.

That bump was the most fun part of the track... It busted one of my shocks on the first run. Go figure. But yeah it was by far one of the most technical parking lot courses I've ever been to. Thanks Taka and Hiro for coming up with this one. I'm so stoked the s12 gets to go to nationals. I'll see the rest of you gangsters out there.

yeah, az sucks, for the most part. but later in the day, when the thunder storms rolled in and it cooled off, it was cool. It was even cooler that i qualified. the course was fast, and the first corner was technical, i was coming in at about 85, and slowing to about 30 to make the first clip. the bumps were cool, i had to raise my car and soften the shocks to keep from straightening out or spinning.
so does anyone know where we will be going for the nationals?

I really hope someone got a pic of the crazy lightning right behind a smokey drift.
There should be some posted within the next week or so. I got to see a few preview pics from our local photo whore Justin and the backdrops were AMAZING. The sunset sets off a bunch of the pics perfectly.
I'll make sure to link you guys up once it becomes available on the local forum.

DTM e30 is Dave Blunt. He's one of the newer JD drivers that's been consistantly attending events. He's got natural talent and will be a competitive driver in the near future with some more power to work with. He just picked up an S13 recently. I wish he would stay in the e30 but I don't blame him for getting an s13 if he plans on getting more competitive. Probably would cost a ton of money to make an e30 competitive. This is his first year drifting and he's already doing some pretty advanced stuff considering his experience and setup. How'd he do out there?
