I've heard mixed stories about this event. Someone said they're doing something at Bandi and yet this schedule says drift competition at Invesco.

They are unoffically scheduled at Bandi two weeks before the Rice Fest they are putting on.

Supposidly.

I know I'll be racing in Phoenix for the season opener. :D

Sucks for Knoxville, all they get is a drift exhibition. How will they experience the heart pounding rush of drifting without somebody there to judge it?

Nopi coming to denver, that's going to be cool. A big show coming to Colorado is pretty rare.

hmm. maybe I should put in some dummy half shafts in the front, and compete in the rice fest?

Some how I dont think 400 ft/lb of torque is going to be very controlable to just my rear wheels.

It would probably be their first and final one as Denver doesnt seem to be able to draw that big of a crowd and anywhere as much revenue as any of the other major cities. Proven from IDRC to NHRA to Drift Showoff.

NHRA sport compact has pulled out of Denver for 2007, so hopefully NOPI has stepped in to provide an event for us.

But we have to make a good turn out for them to come back and draw more big shows to Denver, so that means everybody with a nice ride needs to show up for this.

you dont need to go rwd..... just good power and entry speed. Its a little unnerving at first but the awd will slide like a mo-fo. I will be there.

I dont know, my car has never done anything but understear horribly. Even under power the car doesnt kickout.

Bah I say let NHRA and NOPI and DI and whatever can stay out!

The less attention that is brought on to my hobby, means less kids will be out there doing stupid stuff, means less attention on me and my car by law enforcement.

Having been driving modded compact cars since the mid to late 90's(well BEFORE fnf), I can honestly say there is a lot less attention nowadays from police given to us than there used to be.

in 1998? I was one of like 4 modified FWD cars in aurora.

Now? I blend in in a sea of 100 from the same neighborhood.

The scene as a whole may get more attention but individually you get less.

Plus, when official motorsports die, so does product & manufacturer support for our cars.
