Ok guys, so I don't know the whole story of what's going on exactly, but Petex, Calvin Wan, Tony Brakohiapa, Dave Smith and I went out to Altamont today and did a little drift exhibition for some representatives of Alameda County, The Rivards, and Altamont. It went really well, they were looking for sound levels and the results were really good. I guess we had to be under 95 dB and the loudest it got was about 87 from Todd Ho's Franken 7. What was interesting was Pete and I's street cars were not much quieter on the decible meter than the LS1 RX7.
Calvin, Dave and Tony did tandems together and Pete and I did.
Hopefully this is a big step towards drifting coming back to Altamont.
Here is some pics from our own Andrew Bohan

If you don't mind me asking, how far away was the mic placed from the actual spot you guys were drifting?

Okinawandrifter87 · 12-04-2007, 10:57 AM

Did they let you guys know what will happen or is it a secret?

tknbkthrsdy4anfg · 12-06-2007, 07:02 PM

They don't know whats gonna happen, They're still building a case I think.

deolio · 12-07-2007, 04:18 PM

i don't want to spend the summer in norcal without drifting.

off topic: has anyone ever tried to see if moffit field would be open to drifting kinda like the toro air fields?
