Legit drifting in Columbus Wisconsin (Columbus 151 Speedway). They are doing it every Thursday from 5pm to dark. I went yesterday and it was 15.00, cheap fun. 7 cars showed up (it was the first night they did this) (4) 240's (2) bmw's (1) Corolla Ae86. Was a blast, if you live near madison Wi you need to hit this up. We got all the track time we wanted, some close calls, fans in the stands to clap when you spin out, was bad ass. See you there.

Hey Man. You missed a fun practice/event.. A guy was there from Rockford with a fast sr20 powered s13, there was another corolla, Kyle was drifting junk tires he picked up from the wall...was a good night. There are a pair of videos on youtube. search Kyle Drifting 151 speedway, and Max drifting 151 speedway. Schells, this is going on every thursday at 5pm till dark, bring tires cuz you get alot of time to drift, its bad ass and well worth the money. Bring a helmet! They have AUTO Cross on Tuesday nights now too, 5 to dark, 15.00......Im tempted to go...

THEminusMAN

helmet is all, and if you have anything in your car...water bottles, tools, anything loose needs to come out and you can put it off to the side in the pits.

Hopefully more people get out and go to this. I really don't want it to end. The price is unbeatable. I just feel that they aren't advertising it well enough, and that they should be doing this on weekends as well.

That sucks no lights were turned on. That's the only reason i even went that late. I got there at 8 because of work and i was under the impression the lights would be on. Oh well. I got one run in for free since he gave me my cash back because of it.

Yea I was disappointed as well, I had a perfect set of tires I had just mounted up and I was ready to throw down...I got there 2 hours late anticipating some night action. Oh well I had fun, that v8 s14 has me thinking I need an Ls1...but i dont know.

Im probably gonna hit up the autocross on tuesday....I had a good time last tuesday. To think i used to pay 20.00 in the dells to race a go cart around a track 5 times...I just really like to drive my car fast and you can't beat 15 bucks for track time, I hope more tracks start doing this cuz im free on wednesdays!

Nice driving undesired shoe, I didnt get a chance to say it before but I did like your ride, Im glad you brought it. I found this pic for Chenue, Im selling a spoiler and this is a pic of it on my car before I hit a deer, back in 2008, its furious...

I went this thursday (19th) was a great time, my car is in weak mode for some reason (plugging catalytic converter?, stock fuel pump dying?, low cylinder psi catching up with me?) . I couldn't just power into corners and had to clutch kick like crazy but I still had fun. I know a guy with 8 205/60/15's if either of you guys has stock 15" wheels your drifting with. He will bring them up thursday, just let me know if you need some.

Flicktitty this is every thursday, I don't know for how long....probably fall but IDK..but its not a 1 time thing. It's more track time then your tires can keep up with. They have a tire machine on site as well, so they will mount up and round black tire you bring for 5.00 per tire. Flick check out the videos on youtube (drifting 151 speedway)

David he has 8 of them so Im sure i can hang on to a pair for you till thursday after next.

THEminusMAN

Ok, i may not be going tomorrow (thursday) and the guy with the tires probably isnt going either, so if your gonna go David or Chenue, bring some rubber. Sorry but I doubt Im gonna make it.

Drifting in the Rain is a touchy situation, i have never spun out so many times, so fast. If ever there was a time i would torpedo the wall, its in the rain.
