We'd like to welcome our new partners/sanctioning bodies US Drift and NASA!!!
As well as some friendly updates as this event nears!
**Event Format**
We will be running Three run groups, similar to a HPDE event.
Green Group- Schoolies,Instructors, Beginners
Blue Group - Basic-advance drifters.
Black Group - Pro Practice. Tandem Allowed.
**Spectators/Pit Crew/Media**
-All entrants to the facility will be required to sign a waiver, and fill out an insurance form. In return they will be issued a wristband allowing entrance to the facility. Must be 18 and up to ride along or pit crew.
-Spectators
All spectators will be required to stay within the Paddock and off track Pit areas, as well as spectator areas. No spectators will be allowed on or near the track.
-Pit Crew
Pit Crew members arriving with Drivers/Teams will be issued special bands, and allowed to pit areas on track.
-Media
Approved Media will be checked in , and given Media bands. Bright clothing is required by anyone with media. All media are encouraged to wear white if possible. No dark colored clothed media will be allowed to obtain a Media Pass, However a bring colored self-supplied vest will be acceptable. All media inquiries please contact andrewsproull@gmail.com
**Ride Alongs/Tandem**
-Ride Alongs
Ride alongs will be available. Passengers must keep all appendages inside the vehicle at all times. Any violation of this will result in an immediate forfeit of a wristband, and the vehicle will not be allowed passengers for the remaining entirety of the event. All passengers will be required to wear proper safety gear, including seat belts (as required by tech) and an approved helmet. Windows must also be down on both sides if a passenger is present. Any car with a roll cage and a passenger must meet the same safety criteria for the passenger seat as required for the driver's seat. Foam padding must be attached and covering any roll cage structure within 2' of the Seat. It is the driver's responsibility for his passengers, any rule infractions regarding passengers will result in punishment of both Driver and Passenger.
-Tandem
While close quarters tandem will be permitted at our discretion, minimum requirements (unless unanimous safety staff approval is otherwise given) will be as follows:
Top 32 Formula Drift competitors from 2005, or Top 16 Drivers from 2004, or a Formula Drift or D1GP valid license.
Top 8 at any US Drift sanctioned tandem competition event.
Top 4 at other event*
Safety is priority #1, so if you are denied permission for tandem, and do not meet the above requirements please do not be offended.
* Some event results may not qualify, If you do have a top 4 finish in an event not specifically listed please email mikespeed95@gmail.com to get a yes or no, so the event can be researched and tandem safety can be ensured.
Passengers will also NOT be allowed for tandem, unless you are participating in the school, or an authorized Media Ride-a-long.
Again, thanks to NASA's US Drift for teaming up with us on this venture, look for more awesome events in the future!!
