NCDA Aftermath...
 

I heard someone crashhhhhh.... Into a wall... - Outkast.

that was var driving the pink 240sx. he only slightly nicked his fenders, it was more of a snapped tie rod and steering rack failure.

a supra hit a wall and messed up his hood

Oh damn..

I thought that was georgia.

*smiles*

I was there with Sil40 til around 1 or 2pm. We spectated, but I don't think I'll be going to another event like this unless I'm driving...
I thought NZO, blue S14.5, stickered-up white coupe, pink hatch, and a couple others did a really good job today. :)

I found a bunch of pics here.

a black s14 crashed as well at the end of the day, passenger airbag deployed and destroyed the windshield.

yea i was there for a good hour and got bored. i dont know if any one saw me i was in the black sil80 with the speedoption.com sticker and daves garage sticker on... i should have entered but didnt know i had the day off and showed off the skip barber skills.. lol

yea today was pretty coo for me.. hehe it was my first track event. iono i thought it shoulda been a little bit more organized in the beginning though

yeah, it was abit confusing in the beginning, Drift Ladie, were you running the gold s13?

That was a really fun event even though we left early. I didnt get to drive this time around, but I got to sit shotty in my friend's ride and it was a good time. Here are some pics.

Blah I did really shitty and I have plenty of excuses! Its always fun to hang with friends though so at least its not a complete loss.

On a sidenote whoever decided it would be a good idea to have a drift event there needs to get their head checked. The track was ok but the skidpad/S-Turn was total shit. I didnt see a single person complete a clean run on that all day. Maybe it just happened when I blinked...

The skidpad/s-turn had loose crap on it and you had to cross dirt and gravel to get the the skidpad. But over all I had fun, I guess i'm an outcast cause my a$$ kissed the wall.

i had fun. Even though i didnt get to enter my car this time, i still got to try my skills out in friends ride. I had a good time. Prolly gonna go to the next one too.

hmmm, crash into a ditch?

I just woke up from my nap since I arrived back at home from the event.

It was my first drift event that I've been to and I'd have to say it was pretty cool. Even though I didn't enter (no money, helmet, or tires)... the competition was probably the most fun! jaae86 was great. go jeff!

That was my first ever drift competition and I had a great time! Especially when you're in the finals with your best buddies. I was really nervous before we started the qualifying and just keep it together after that. =)

Although the small course was indeed rough and really bumpy, it was a chance for me to learn how to control my slide in these kind of conditions.

It was my first event but I had a really great time. I didn't mind the track much....but the gravel on the skid pad scraped the bottom of my bumper and the lip :smash:

I'll definitely go again if:
-They redo the pavement on the skidpad, the ditches really sucked and so did the loose gravel as i mentioned earlier. I think in my sig you can sort of see a lil ditch at the bottom right corner
-The ditch that i really hated was the one on the first turn on the actual track; I noticed a lot of people hitting it and making their car jump :eek3: I'd try hard to avoid it but that made me run into the grass sometimes.

Anyway, i liked the event overall. Like everyone else said, the beginning was confusing. But after everyone got the idea of what was going on, things were flowing pretty smoothly.

Dude you where bad ass the only person to had smoke follow you around ther track

I believe the 350z crashed as well. The Supra that crashed really messed up the left part of his front end, and scraped (not sure if dented) the left quarter panel.

A hachi also hit the passenger side quarter panel

It was cool. I don't think I'd seen a actual drift competition in NorCal before now.

Makes me really want to drive my car! :(

i had hella fun...My first drift event. My first time actually drifting....Now im just really tired...

I had a great time at the NCDA event. I agree that the short course was sucky. I couldn't get anything going on it. And throughout the day the pavement just got worse. The big track however, was soooo much fun. Especially during the competition where the opened up the big oval and the back straight. I tried a few manji's on it but it's a bit intimidating going 75MPH next to a wall. And tandem drifting is a blast. I'm happy I made it as far as I did. I got a little too pumped up and kept spinning on the 3rd gear sweeper. Congratulations to everyone that competed and just showed up to drift. I could see everyone improving through out the day. I think I was in the Best 8. I was in the white FC.

d1drifter - yea that was me in the gold s13

yea the track wasn't all that.. but overall i think ppl had a fun time.. hehe so when's the next event?

Here's a pic.

on the oval track, it was crazy at first, a cupple people hit the turn to close, and got air boarn. I hit that ditch one time, and after that, I stayed out wide but it was fun

If this is your car

then I saw you driving very recklessly down Capitol Expwy in San Jose recently. Thanks.

hey neevosh, who is that dude in that car with you;) ;):):)

anyone wanna host some vids for me? About 50mb's? That blue "s14.5" had a pretty good driver. I think I got some vid where he is out in front of SC Levin. And the supra was f#cked. The front bumper was gone, hood was jacked up, and had some good damage to the drivers side. Does anybody know the name of those 3 models that were running around. I got some pics of them with some 240's.

Skid pad sucked. i did ok for my first event. I'm never going to Altamont if there are more than 20 drivers. The seat time was long, but the track time was short. Most of the day was spent inside the car waiting in line.

I fought the wall and the wall won
