soleil would know, he was on springs when he had his HKS. depends on your wheel and tire setup as well. that drop is pretty minimal and i dont see you having a problem.

It's a hike from South Louisiana, but supposedly it'll be worth the trip.


Alright, the official announcement of the LONESTARBASH. The theme of this event is getting EVERYONE out to one HUGE event where all the tandem kids play, we pile 8 cars together in as many runs as possible, get the coolest video Texas has ever produced, everyone gets drunk, stuff like that. It will be at Mineral Wells of course.

1. There will be places to stay for everyone. My place will be available, Stew offered up some space, and others will as well. That gets the hotel bill off your back. Bring a sleeping bag and pillow.

2. There will be parties. My place will have drinking, bars within walking distance with cheap drinks and downtown scene, etc. We will drink until we remember its a bad idea. There will be a party the night before, and the night of the event.

3. There will be tandem, because all of our cars will be there. That means my s13, Stew's car, Russell's car, Tyler *** said he will try and make it, Ameen's Cressida, Cody's Chaser, Brad and Will's AE86s, Amir's GS300, Chelsea's M3, and the list goes on and on. I want to create a tandem run so long the train will stretch from the starting line all the way back to the ending gate. A train if you will. We are going to bring all the cool cars in Texas to one glorious event for some amazing tandem. Without putting the name Lonestarbash on the event, it is to hard to get everyone to an event at the same time!

4. We will video tape the event and make a rad long video of it. The event will be covered in a different fashion than our normal little 3-4 minute videos. This event will have a huge video, with tons of on car footage, incar footage, HD outside footage, etc. We are going all out on this to make something really neat. It will make more sense in the coming months.



There will be music, food, partying, all kinds of stuff. This will be our epicly FUN Texas drift event for the year.

lsb(lonestarbash) is very far, but you get a lot of seat time, there are a lot of good drivers, u will learn a lot....but if you dont want to run before you crawl, then there's a local drift event coming up on nov 1st thats open to anyone,
more info here:
http://www.nostreetracing.org/forums...ead.php?t=6834


but me, and a few 240 guys are heading to lsb(lonestarbash), and if u want to take a ride, ur more than welcome to come...
i know many of the hardcore drifters in texas and even the few thats putting on the event; they're all offering sleep space in their places. All u gotta do is bring a pillow and/or sleepin bag...

Drive up to Shreveport, kick it overnight, & then it's about four hours from there.
