[mike13]

I'll definately be there. I probably wont be participating because i wont have many parts installed until warm weather. FYI its usually still snowing in march here in Pittsburgh. One year we had a terrible blizzard in late march. haha.

[andrave]

Yeah pittsburgh's weather is pretty famous like that. Hopefully it will hold out though, its great to see more events more to the northeast. Saw there is a drift day in richmond on the 20th too, but I have to drive my fiancee to columbus. Oh well.

Everyone on the east coast represent! This event is going to be huge.. Stan, did you get your car all dialed in?

[StanBo]

No it was finished 2 days ago. It will be broken in tomorrow and ran at the event Saturday :D

[andrave]

weather is supposed to be nice too!

[andrave]

Hey, everyone that participated:
great job on the track! I think beaverrun did a nice job managing the event.
My kudos go out to the Volvo that shocked everyone, and my diss goes to that nasty ass corolla with an open header that couldn't stay on the track anyway.
The finals were awesome but I wanted to see some 2x2 runs to determine the winner... I guess the kart track it just too small for that.

[halyoder]

i have about 30 mins of video from the practice runs i will try to find out how to post it if you guys want.

[Brian W.]

def post up some footage! love to see it.

YES! POST!

I was there spectating, and it was really awesome to see my first drift event. There were some hot cars there, along with quite a few friendly guys. I really liked the S13 coupe with the red rear wheels, blitz front mount, no front bumper. not sure if that guy is on zilvia, but he was a really cool dude. i didn't talk to that many people there, but if anyone saw me, I was wearing the bright blue datsun t shirt. anyways, what's the next drift event on the east coast/midwest?

[andrave]

www.sounddomain.com/id/andrave
4th page for pics of the event.
I have more, I'm going to host them up at nico under general chat, the thread has "drift riot" in the title. Just give me some time. My friend should have a few vids up soon as well, I'll try and provide those too. He took all the pictures and films.
Anyway if anyone needs more drifting, starting next wednesday, beaverun is hosting a drift practice day the first wednesday of each month until October. In october it is the 2nd wednesday. This is the last scheduled month for drift practice (for good reason-pittsburgh weather).

Also if anyone cares, i was wearing a big bright red adidas sweatshirt and I spent most of the day sitting on the big rocks by the last turn yelling things at the drivers and just screaming things in general. And then I yelled more during the awards ceremony. GTP sucks!!!!!

MUD-FEST 2004...they all laughed when i brought 2 pairs of sneekers for an over-nighter....who's laughing now, shit-shoe!

-good times-

[andrave]

I wore fucking clogs which repeatedly got sucked off my feet.

[StanBo]

Yeah it was pretty messy. I have learned one thing in my travels.

Rainsuits are worth every penny.
Boots make more sense than raceshoes.
A lot of track paddock areas are grass not paved so wooden boards also rock.

Dealing with this all with friends makes life a billion times easier.
