MARCH 21st, 2009! Just 2 weeks away! This event will be held on an ex-airport, the lot is HUGE.

Hey guys, Norcalufo will be hosting their first drift event ever. It's CHEAP and it lasts all day long.

The course is pretty large, there will be enough space to see 50 MPH in most cars (http://www.rx7club.com/showthread.php?t=824496#) in the advanced course.

ENTRY: $40.00 per person for the AM Novice Courses; $40.00 per person for the PM Advanced Course; OR $70.00 for the day!
Registration will be open at 7:30 AM ‘til 8:30 AM and 11:30 AM - 12:30 PM, Gate is open from 7:00 AM – 6:00 PM, Gate is locked at 6:00 PM. The event will end At 4:00 PM so that set up for the next day’s event can be done. Please plan to arrive early enough to get registered, walk the course and attend the driver’s meeting. This is a trial event so we will be trying what we think will work. We may change the format as the day progresses if we feel we need to. Based upon the popularity of this event and the enthusiasm of the participants, there may be a follow on event in September. BRING 2 EXTRA WHEELS AND TIRES (http://www.rx7club.com/showthread.php?t=824496#) TO GET HOME ON. LOTS OF RUNTIME
