I can't agree more with these comments. I too was troubled when I heard about this, I am still furious and want to kick some ass but I just hope that Hiro can find us another venue so we can all start driving again.

Well nobody is going to release any info if you guys are riling up to kick the dude's ass.
As despicable as the dude might be, nobody wants to think they were responsible for giving out info that got him in the hospital. However Dai's driving event handles this, is no doubt their own affair. To be fair, I hope they can establish stricter rules when it comes to something like this. Perhaps things could be done a bit differently next time. IF the said driver was kicked out at the first sign of trouble, perhaps this wouldn't have even been an issue. It makes you appreiciate how come some track event groups are as strict as they are. Could have also been the 'El Toro' owners were not explicit about their expectations. It's hard to have full control over everyone all the time at almost any event. It seems harsh that they would kick out Dai's event just b/c of 1 arguably harmless (even if annoying) incident. El Toro is most likely also being just anal. Venues are everywhere though! CA Speedway is pretty decent. SCCA autoX and Speedventures autoX regularly host events there. I'm sure Willow Springs would work out, but that might be a longer drive for some. |

I was pretty upset when I read what happened earlier at El Toro after this event. Being one of the main event coordinators for Drift Association and being a contact between our organization and El Toro I understood what the consequences could be once El Toro caught on to what happened. I was there when we took responsibility for what happened at the Greddy Festival and El Toro does not take incidences like this lightly.
As an event organizer, you are responsible for those who attend the events and the individuals they invite. With the exception of the Greddy event, we have never received any complaints about not obeying the speed limit on the property or having any of our drivers go off and do things they shouldn't be doing. Instead of speculating what is shown only what's on the outside (the guy doing donuts in the balloon area) has anyone considered there might be other factors on why Dai's organization is not allowed back? There are internal conflicts between the Dai's Driving Academy and El Toro that no one knows about. I'm not airing their dirty laundry. That is between the organizer and the venue. I am upset about this whole situation, because after several months of staff internally vouching for us at El Toro and hosting several redeeming events, we get kicked out because of what happened here. So as of right now, there is no drifting allowed at El Toro period. I don't have anything against Dai's Driving Academy. I was considering attending his last event had my car not been in the body shop. I'm just tired of seeing ppl wanting to flame this person who fucked up when the organizer is just as responsible for getting themselves kicked out.

This is a huge loss. If Drift Day lost the right to hold events at el toro. I dont know if a lot of you know but Naoki hosts a great deal of pro practices at el toro in preparation for formula d events. This is really a sad day.

Basically what everyone needs to understand is that we are ALL responsible for what happens
before, during and after the events we attend. From our behavior on and off the track to making sure we CLEAN. UP after ourselves. The First responsibility falls on the individual. After that it falls on EVERYONE! Event Organizers are the First to feel the effects of any negative feedback. Don't you think that they deserve enough consideration for their hard work to at least just behave ourselves? As of now there is NO drifting at El Toro. We almost lost Willow Springs! Wake up people! We can't afford to lose ANY venues! We need More! One bad apple will ruin it for everyone. |

I saw Jon do this shit and told him to stop. He and I are no longer friends because of this. He work at the Irvine spectrum.
