the S2000 thing should give you a clue. Take what that guy claims with a grain of salt. He uses a lot of names without permission and openly lies through his teeth. Were you there when two of the people in his own club chewed him out about using their names? Is it SocalRace club or is he trying to run an one man show behind their backs?

I contacted Speed Alliance, one of their socalled sponsors and SA (Chris) told me the guy TRIED to get SA to sponsor them, but failed, but still uses SA's name without their permission. Same goes for Tanabe from what Chris tells me. Pretty friggen shady if you ask me.

i don't doubt that he has good intentions... but i just can't really believe him anymore. That stuff about Azusa, ton of sponsors being there, irwendale infield. I'll believe it when i see it.

umm pruto's input is interesting and id consider it. but the event was fun none the less.

off-topicid anyone else know that the girl that was flaging had a birth control patch on her shoulder and would occasionally say "go kick ass!" or "you guys are fast!" lol.. Before she left the event at the end, she jumped and hugged that cordinator guy like he was her daddy or something. haha

nah i asked her if it was a nicotine patch, she said birth control and that she doesnt want her people to get pregnant. so that just makes me wonder about her antics. hah. besides, she busted out a cigerette a few times there anyways.

-dood that sux ass that ur motor phudge'd up. wuz that the mean valve tick i heard. same goes for the M3 owner i heard his car clunking loudly, hopefully it was just a throwout bearing.

BTW- who wuz the guy with the white hatch with blacktop SR rollin SSR up front, that guy had gross suggestions i hadnt even considered for my 240. hope to see all you guyz at D-day "i want ride alongs, until june haha"

if jason somehow convinces the city to allow azuza runs which i highly doubt. how will there be a way to filter out the wannabes from those who want to take it seriously. not to mention setting up braking markers. insurance is the main thing, so many sue happy phudge'rs out there, fees wud kik or arse in order to do that.

ISTOTOSAO

I am sorry. It happend so early too. That is one reason I don't let but only a few select people drive my car.

SCRC need to get some help from the dday, or NASA people on how to set up and run an event. If these stay small though I would love to go again. It is sad to see that non-registered cars and drivers were out there. My friend took out prelude. It was fun to watch but I think it shouldn't have happened. I don't like the sound of the Azusa thing at all. I don't want to see people out there practicing for this thing with other cars on the street and such. I also don't want to see people with my skill level out there on a street with curbs and cliffs and hills. I would never try drifting on my road. too much to lose.

Anyway. What is the next event that everyone is going to. I am not signed up for dday but I want to get back out there soon.

P.S. The asian chick's ass was way too flat------ "like board".

Dood....you where tearing it up out there! Nice driving. It was nice to get to meet you. Maybe we will meet again at another event someday.


I asked the guy filming and he said its for a video called Thrust. They do car videos I guess, the guy said the DVD would be out by summer.

ISTOTOSAO

Speedmonkeyinc: I actually had you confused with equinox. But you had the black racing wheels? your were still doing great.

Equinox: just waiting t get the video from a friend and if you are on there, I am sure you are with those skills, I'll get you a copy.

I think i should summarize the entire thread:
1. There are possibilities of getting Asuza, but until we have all the bases covered, this will be a long time in coming. Maybe end 2005, we just dont want any bad press for any of us.
2. I had a lack of staff for the 1st event, people flaked on me, i tried my best with what i had
3. A lot of scouting was done at the 1st event and sponsored cars and drivers have already been contacted.
4. SCRC and Pacific Drift have been offered a sponsorship by Speed Alliance for Vertex body kits and Chris and Warren both know about this, so i do not know where that information came from
5. Tanabe Racing Development are a company we have never promoted nor inferred alliances with. Michael McFall knows SCRC and their product line was out of stock at the time of the last event, when we last talked.
6. Ku, your car was fixed straight away and i put that down to stress on the day, but you are cool
7. The S2000s I actually remember posting about that in the SCRC wondering where all the S2000 registrations came from, I phoned a few of them. The information (email address and phone number) was all accurate so I presumed they group registered. I am checking ALL the registrations for their validity now and all registrations get a confirmation email to the email address to stop people from registering other people.
8. SCRC does not make money from any event, even if we did, the money would go into creating more events for the Drifters. It personally costs me in time and money to put on these events
9. I am not from Australia, I am from England and you are entitled to your opinion as badly informed as it is!
10. Pacific Drift #2 is on June 5th on the Inflield, goto www.socalraceclub.com for registration
11. The event was filmed by Thrust Video, I got a promo reel 3m44s and the final segment will be upto 15 minutes on DVD
12. If you have any questions, concerns or anything, email me so that the next event will be much better.

I value your input, we learn from our mistakes

MikeFD3S

Tanabe Racing Development, USA has no corporate alliances with SCRC and any strategic ties were never expressed nor implied.
