Hurley chimp you guys going to Lowes? I think the 240s over atlanta guys are trying to come up again as well.

lazyyy-.- · 08-10-2004, 11:44 PM

is this drift event at lowes the 21st or 28th? i'm confused. because both dates are being advertised and crap. anyway. who's all going to that? i'll be there cuz of school. dunno if i'll enter.

mad s13 · 08-11-2004, 06:58 AM

i'll add my post here too...i'm in greenville where dubs and bags run rampant...

*sykikchimp* · 08-11-2004, 07:05 AM

Steeles - who is running the event at Lowes?? If there's something happening at Lowes.. I'm there.

BTW - My roommate was talking to some RSX guys about setting up a meet at Victory Lanes on August 22nd. Would you guys be interested in comming.. it can be like a Nissan vs. Honda challenge!! lol. Where the drivers are tested.. not the cars.

lazyyy-.- · 08-11-2004, 11:28 PM

sykikchimp- the Lowes event is run by US Drift. and i'd like to meet up on the 22nd. but i dunno what victory lanes is...auto-x hopefully? ^^ haha

*sykikchimp* · 08-12-2004, 10:31 AM

Victory lanes is an indoor Go-Kart place.. VERY FUN.. check it here:

http://www.victorylanekarting.com/vkart.html

Steeles · 08-12-2004, 11:16 AM

yeah the US drift. I dunno who is running I gotta check. but youknow us we'll find something to get into reegardless. Victory lanes sounds good shoot me more info on that!

*sykikchimp* · 08-13-2004, 12:37 PM

I went to US Drifts website and did not see LMS in the schedule. Anybody got a link?

more info.. hmm..

Aug 22nd (next sunday), I'm think probably 2pm or there abouts. I'll start another thread for it.

lazyyy-.- · 08-13-2004, 01:12 PM

indoor go-karting?! awesome...i'm in. i'll tell the team about it...haha...probably me and a teammate will go for sure.

*sykikchimp* · 08-13-2004, 02:49 PM

sweet.. fwiw, my roommate raced go karts for 10 years, and he says these karts are as close to the real thing as you can get.. 9hp.. fast as hell... definately the fastest karts I've ever driven.

Steeles · 08-13-2004, 03:08 PM

chimp they dont list it under events but theres something on the homepage about it. its not a ull hyperfest event just drift. I dunno why its not listed under the events thing but play around its there

lazyyy-.- · 08-13-2004, 04:59 PM

never driven a fast go-kart haha. i've only ridden those ones people get from wal-mart. but i'ma still have fun haha...jus gotta get used to it.

lazyyy-.- · 08-13-2004, 05:03 PM

yea the comp is on the 28th. go here to register ... https://www.nasaproracing.com/nasa_e.../?event_id=178

240Driver39 · 08-15-2004, 02:28 AM

id be game for something..altho im not quite in charlotte, i am not far away either...i go to school at VaTech and it only took me bout 2 hours to drive to charlotte when i was there for a mini meet this past year. I could prob drag a few of my slacker roommates down with their 240's also.

elevator · 08-15-2004, 05:13 AM

Is it true that guys meet up in a parking lot on Independence Blvd and drift in the lot? While we were there for the summer I heard that some do after midnight. I saw pitiful evidense of drifting while there. My oldest son and daughter live in Charlotte. Dang it was hot and humid this summer!

Steeles · 08-15-2004, 09:29 AM

damn Glad how old ARE you mang!?!??!!? lol

elevator · 08-16-2004, 01:42 AM

I'm good....and DANGED glad to be back here. I bout melted in Charlotte ths summer. The humidity there sucks sooooo bad!

The event that was at Lowes a while back was sorely disappointing. There was some real losers drifting there. Legends cars drifting?? Gimme a break! The audience applause chose the winner! Jr. would have torn them all up.

Don't think I'll participate, but I'll come check it out.

240KAT · 08-20-2004, 09:24 PM

Im in Mooresville

but its cool. Id like to come Karting this sunday, but I dont think i have the money. I'll be at the US Drift Event at Lowes Motor Speedway next saturday though. You guys should come out. anyone know how much it costs to get in? Are there any good shops in the area? I'm buying another SR head and will be building it and stuff..either that or 5 lug and 300z rims. Can't quite decide. Going to the junkyard tomorrow to see whats there.

lazyyy-.- · 08-21-2004, 02:12 PM

i'm new to charlotte cuz jus started goin to school here. jus wonderin where/when you guys meet up on weekends or something if ya do.

lazyyy-.- · 08-21-2004, 02:13 PM

or if you know of any good roads for touge..

altralosix · 08-27-2004, 04:53 PM

I'll be there!

Hey Charles, this is Lee (RJ's Roommate). Figured I'd make myself known and stop being a lurking bitch.

*sykikchimp* · 08-28-2004, 02:29 PM

cool.. good to see ya round! I'm a slacker and didn't make it out to us drift this morning..

altralosix · 08-29-2004, 09:22 AM

Man you missed out! I have no idea how that compared to any other drift competition or anything, but I do know it was incredibly fun. A 240 had it won too, but he hit a wall on his last runs

I'm really saddened that it's over and probably won't be back for another year. I'm under the belief that if Lowe's would start up a monthly car show/ drift comp it would catch on a lot more and they could actually make money on it.

I have a shitload of pictures, I might post the good ones later.
