Everyone has a shot at qualifying for the Top 16 and we've organized the event so everyone should get pretty much the same number of runs (except the Best 8 will end up taking more competition runs!)

The competition is heating up. To see where you stand see: http://www.evergreendrift.com/2008_Standings.html

The series top five drivers from Competition #1 are:

1. Victor Moore
2. Rob Primozich
3. Mike Phillips
4. Ian Fournier
5. Roland Gallagher

Rob will not be attending this event loosing the chance to earn valuable points and opening the door for some one else to take his spot. Will Victor be able to say on top? Will Team Canada return in full uniform?

If you are serious about becoming the Evergreen Drift 2008 champion you can't afford to miss this event!

Changes for this Event

Rules

• If a driver commits unsafe behavior (i.e. speeding in the pits, drifting/aggressive driving outside of the official course) the driver will receive one warning and lose their next run. Upon the second infraction the driver will be disqualified from the event, not be allowed to run for the rest of the night, loose all competition points for the event, and will not receive a refund.

Competition

• The course will have 2 judged clipping points. (Same course as competition #1 but the last clipping point will not be judged.)
• Qualifying rules and format remain the same
• Top 16 format and rules change in the works. Top 16 will be FD/D1 style head to head bracket elimination format. All drivers in the Tandem run group will be required to tandem. Drivers not qualified/equipped for tandem will compete in a 'psudo tandem' format where they take individual runs alternating with their competitor but are scored with the same head-to-head 10 point advantage system.
• The points schedule for the top 16 finishers and qualification points that count towards the season championship will be posted.
• Competition rules changes are still in the draft phase so stay tuned for updates. I'll announce when they are finished and published.

Come on out and invite your friends!!! The best way to improve the prizes and get more payout on the competitions is to bring more spectators so bring everyone you know.

See you there!

Nice!

 

Remember spectating is always a good time. If you come through the back gate and get a pit pass you can check out all the cars and even go on a ride along if you ask nicely and bring a DOT or SNELL approved helmet along.

Hard to beat a ride along for $15!

 

I will be driving if I make it there after work before the cap!

 

bah, tires are gettin too damn expensive. Might go watch wasuber own people though

I'm thinking about going to this event....never seen drifting in person before. Any one want to roll.

 

Drew said he would come watch me wreck my car!

 

lol, let's hope that doesn't happen. Although if it did, I think I would smell a GTR in the near future...

 

bumpage, anyone going?

 

maybe when I get off work.

 

So I drifted my car... it was fun! I met many cool peeps, got some tips and had some really good drivers ride along with me a few times.

Some comments made while I was there...

"Thats a nice car... dudes got some ***** drifting that!"

"I'd have to say your drift style is aggro" <-- my favorite, I was trying to have fun for myself, mission accomplished!

"3rd gear on the bank WOT... whip the wheel... kick the clutch.... let the steering wheel spin by itself... try not to hit the wall!

Too bad no one showed up to take pics.

 

ahhhhh dammit. I forgot all about this. fsck.

 

sorry, wish I could have made it out there! I tried, but the Iphone was calling my name!

Wow just looked at that scoreboard and I actually scored points!! Nice! Yeah that was good times, ramping up the Z for some more action later this month... Daddy wants to burn up the Toyos!!

 

Damn I watched the whole video thinking I was going to see Wasuber, but big negative. Next one I will be there, I gotta see Wasuber in action.

 

Better yet! Now that you are manual... drift with me!

 

Yeah....Im not to sure about that, I rather just be a spectator.
