What happened to the Chicago area drift scene?
As far as I can tell, it's been dead for years. The only events are in Wisconsin, Indiana, or southern Illinois-too far for your average weekend drifter to travel. It's kind of sad, especially for such a large state. We haven't had a major drift event here since FD 2005 and a few Hot Import Nights that had pros out on a skidpad.
I've been kicking around the idea of starting some sort of grassroots organization since I came back home from the military in 2014. Outside of Formula D coming here twelve years ago, it's been nonexistent.
Would there even be a want for such a thing? Let me know your thoughts so I can gauge interest.
