Also, suggestion! Regulation on parking in the pit between drivers and spectators? I personally had a hard time trying to get back to my pit spot.

We told everyone at the Drivers meeting.
I parked over half the cars.

do I really need to make a picture to show you next time everyone?? lol
Do we really need to consider making all your friends and family park in the gravel lot across the street??

Probably not,

, So we will just try again next time

And I am sure It won't be my turn to Track Marshall, so I will be able to Regulate the Parking area.

Just kind of

Dude, yeah, parking was cake when I got there. Afterwards, it was mayhem. I couldn't even get back to my spot after the event was over. Several others had trouble getting to the track because spectators were blocking paths. So annoying.

Just shoot fire at them like you did at me, it sure as hell got me out of the way

Jimmy Up · 01-04-2009, 07:50 PM

Someone straight disconnected the negative battery cable on my car in the middle of the day.

Unless that was chuck, castro or edgar- fuckin with my car is not cool guys...

90 DGRZ · 01-04-2009, 07:53 PM

nahhh mike ... that wasn't me. im sure it wasn't edgar or castro either...

Wasn't me. I wouldn't fuck with people's car like that. That really isn't cool.

Jimmy Up · 01-04-2009, 07:55 PM

no man, my windows were down with the doors unlocked...

I pulled it off the track and parked it, and it wasnt loose going out there- it was just placed off to the side when I popped the hood

I know better for next time, just pretty shitty.

YoungGun · 01-04-2009, 07:57 PM

Hey mike that sucks man, but was there any damage done?

btw I love the way your car sounds.

I hope a video comes soon, cool photos everyone!!

90 DGRZ · 01-04-2009, 07:57 PM

well...if ur sure it wasn't loose before then thats gay..
but i've had instances where my terminals have shook loose and fallen to the side.

i would hate to think someone was fucking with you.
if anything im sure it was someone that knew you...

And the new corse layout was awesome I loved it. You start out initiating early and as you get better you initiate latter and later. This was by far my favorite track day!!!! I actually drifted lol it was amazing.

I dont think it was the spectators guys. The entire front area was for them.
And In the morning there was over 40 feet from them to the front rows of cars.
Its other drivers parking their cars there.
i had problems getting through and haveing my spot taken too.

You have a right to tell people that its your spot, and your personal belongings and tools, and they need to move.

We hear ya all, and will make changes

People will need to start keeping their friends in check or we will have to

Thanks man- the hood pin was all loose like somebody tried to pop the hood without undoing it...you are a badass driverthough, I had fun watching you out there for sure.

wow-thats-a-cool-car · 01-04-2009, 08:02 PM

they need to divide up the parking lot and paint lines where drivers can park and where spectaors can park!!

Some were though. I saw people just chillin in their car. My buddy Jason couldn't get through because a couple was in their car, and there was a car in front and behind them. So they couldn't move out either. We told them to move, but gave us that "We' can't move so we're not gonna do anything" look. :/

YoungGun · 01-04-2009, 08:19 PM

Maybe get some rope and cones and rope off the pits, that way its easy for a driver to leave and come as they please but will keep the spectator cars away.

We will figure something out. We hope people just listen next time.
It was clearly stated at the Drivers Meeting.

Some thing's to consider about the parking at the Jan event,.........
I think the cold and the amount of spectators had a lot to do with it too.
when it heats up, people wont need to sit in their cars. And some peeps had little kids there, and kids cant be in that cold for 8 hours.
Plus we had a large amount of spectators. People wanna support you drifting and watch!!!!

So we will try and "coral" them next time.
And you drivers, stay in your spots.
If your not parking in your spot, your in someone elses.
that simple

yeah i remember the two people in the car, van or suv i think? i was gonna go and tell them that they can't just sit in the way where we move around from pit to the track. but eh, they just sat there when we asked them to move. jason ended up having to back up and go all the way around the pit.

Yeah, the weather was freaking crazy, hot and cold over and over. my motor liked the wind though xD

Bringing warm clothes is a must! The weather is unpredictable.

doridet · 01-04-2009, 08:27 PM

i think i have some caution tape we can use for spectator parking... lol but seriously, some SUV jacked my spot too...

whatda · 01-04-2009, 08:27 PM

dude cody you were the sh!t
pictures came out freaking good

yeah, hopefully next time it'll be nicer, besides the parking, everything else ran good, especially the track setup, groups, and time.

SUPERSTAR · 01-04-2009, 08:52 PM

Well I think someone sucked two quarts of oil out of my car with a straw. How I know? I found the straw with oil in it next to trash can.

j/k. That was for Mike, doubt anyone would mess with car like that unless it was a joke. They will come lose, because of all the movement in the chassis and ur aluminum frame don't help prevent it....lol

I wish we had done both days. even though my car took a crap, can't get enough drift time. I need like 24 hour straight runs.

Jimmy Up · 01-04-2009, 08:54 PM

lol- I hope it wasnt anybody but the hood pin all jacked up has me pretty convinced...

oh well though- no harm no foul, I just want to get out there again

SUPERSTAR · 01-04-2009, 08:55 PM

You did really well, must have been that sexy shirt you had on.
