in case your wondering, the Reno Fernley Raceway skidpad is huge. ther's a giant hill next to it. on the side of the hill there's a different levels where watchers can do what they do, and watch. on the top of the hill is parking for the watchers. i snaged a pic form RFR's website and wrote on it:

koukikat180sx · 02-21-2007, 12:20 PM

boo. why so far? if my car was still ka i'd totally be down to go.

*MELLO*SOS* · 02-21-2007, 12:42 PM

What's up man.. Are you just renting the skidpad or using the track too? I'm in Vegas but I have family up that way Reno & Gardnerville... Might think about taking a trip up there..

BOROSUN · 02-21-2007, 01:54 PM

wow nice track

uthemofo · 02-22-2007, 03:30 AM

are you guys using the whole track???

rubberbiscuitt · 02-22-2007, 10:26 PM

we're using the skidpad. the larger one, as illustrated. sorry to get your hopes up about the whole track, that's the best picture i could find. and there was a motorcycle school there last time we were, so i didn't take my own pics.

that would be awesome if you came up from vegas. i'm in an opposite situation as you, and have family down there in vegas.

*MELLO*SOS* · 02-23-2007, 09:44 AM

I'll consider it, but 7hrs is a long drive for only skidpad action. But we'll see

Hey I see you registered and posted on NV240SX you might also want to put a note on VegasDrift.com and also maybe UtahDrift.com...

drift-it · 02-23-2007, 09:51 AM

I want that track in my backyard

rubberbiscuitt · 02-23-2007, 03:01 PM

thanks for the suggestions.

rubberbiscuitt · 02-23-2007, 03:02 PM

i got a pm from another member and i thought the info was important to post(yeah i'm lagging on info, sorry):

How many drivers are you guys allowing?

40

When does registration close?

midnight march 22. by midnight tonight, registration is supposed to be online.

From what time to what time; start til end?

get there by 8:00 to ensure plenty of time for tech, tardy registration and other mumbo jumbo. registration will close 9:20ish. tech will go until 9:30 when the drivers meeting starts. driver's meeting 9:30. 10:00 am tires will get hot. we'll go until 3:00 or when everyone runs out of tires, whichever comes first. lunch break some time in there too. if all goes smoothly, we'll stay late and have fun runs until dark.

Are the sacramento/bay area people going to?

we'll take all the entrants we can get.

Are there any instructors?

Pro Control Driving Academy will be on staff. they are the drive school that lives at RFR. and they are coincidentally giving us their skid pad time(aka important sponsor, go give all your left over money to Pro Control).

rubberbiscuitt · 03-01-2007, 09:28 PM

bump for info edit(above post).

rubberbiscuitt · 03-01-2007, 09:34 PM

more: online registration is now online!

$75 for pre registration
$85 for tardy registrants the day of

helmet rentals are $5. they are all new helmets, so you'll be the first to put your sweaty head in one of these helmets. available for super discounted price at the end of the day. or you can arrange with us earlier and we'll bring one for you to buy/prebuy.

rubberbiscuitt · 03-12-2007, 11:05 PM

The March 24 Drift-o-Rama has been postponed to a later date. Reasons are personal to the track time provider. Fellow enthusiasts please join us, we will still have an unofficial group drive through the mountains the same date. Meet at 8:00am March 24 at the Lakeside Inn and Casino upstairs restaurant for breakfast. (check www.lakesideinn.com for directions) Drive should last for a few hours. Radios available. This drive isn’t just for the drift crowd either; half of us that make Tahoe Motorsports drive Subarus. Please contact me so we can get an idea of how many want to join us. Or contact me for more info, or see our updated website (www.tahoemotorsports.com).

wanganwonder · 03-12-2007, 11:23 PM

get the whole track and i'll go

that looks fun as heck, dang it

Ameer · 03-12-2007, 11:32 PM

Thats a great deal for a full day of tire burning. Good luck to all the people attending.

drftsub · 03-13-2007, 12:21 AM

argh, well that sucks there is an event that same day at Thunderhill that I am already reg'd for

YUNG DRIF · 03-13-2007, 09:37 PM

o shit son im there

drift-it · 03-13-2007, 10:14 PM

get thr main track and its on

johngriff · 03-13-2007, 11:39 PM

+1000 For the Main track, I think you might have alot of people from all over the nation make it to your event

rubberbiscuitt · 03-15-2007, 01:23 PM

sorry if this sound wrong, but the event has been canceled. see post #15.

the whole 4.2 mile track would be awesome, but it would definetly not be a $75 entrance fee. we're shooting for that whole affordable thing. and $150 plus tires isn't all that affordable for me. thats not even including the amount of entrants that need to be there(aka: less runs, more money, crowded staging/pits/parking, more insurance coverage, blah, blah, blah).

once we establish a tangible drift attendance here in northern ca/nv, then i would be willing to take the risk of eating the bill for track rental.

krazyfil · 03-15-2007, 01:32 PM

haha... umm would love to go... but used to live in reno.. dont like it.. and umm... i think i have warrants there anyways.. soo... lets hold one down in cali somewhere or arizona.. id love to go..lol

drift-it · 03-15-2007, 10:06 PM

main trackkkk

*Agamemnon* · 03-15-2007, 10:36 PM

We'll be running the whole 4.2 mile course in June. Of course it wont be for drift and it wont be for $75.

johngriff · 03-16-2007, 03:14 AM

Believe me, if you schedule it, they will come.

You need the full course open. Yes, it will be more expensive. The first person to do a full track at reno, will be booked by some of the best unsigned talent nationally, instantly, guaranteed.

*Agamemnon* · 03-16-2007, 06:22 AM

June 23-24 sat/sun. $200 for one day, $375 for both days. They'll supply bottled water and gatorade, snacks, catered lunch, driving instruction, and at least 2 hours of track time per day! And yes, the whole track will be open. Here is more info.
