    What: Drift Atlanta
    Where: Road Atlanta (Road Atlanta)
    When: May 12, 2007

    I don't know if we can get some sort of corral setup like we did at Petite Le Mans, but that may be something to look into. (Maybe Batlground can help out on that ;))
    PLEASE send me a PM if you wish to attend

    hehehe that would be soo nice..:sx: :sx: i never knew you guys had a meet there, but i guess that's because i didnt have my car last year. i am definitely going to be there, but i dunno about taking my car up there, because there are soo many crazy ppl and very limited space. But damn, May is officially my favorite month to date!

    I should be there with some Clemson guys. A corral of Subarus would be nice again. I definitely thought that was great at Petit.

    Did anyone check on the date(s).
    I'm pretty sure Atlanta is the only venue that is getting 2 days! The 11th AND the 12th

    Shout for the DriftMB guys. If you see a S13 240 and a Lexus GS300 drifting with DriftMB on the sides of the car shout for them.....they are personal friends of mine. 240 guy (name is Marshall) is nuts if he has a good day. He drifts the MB Speedway oval at 80 mph! My butt would be all in the wall.....haha

    Theres not much point. I think you end up paying more, and you have to go to Will call. Just have 22 ready and your good to go:)


    Don't think we have to pay a parking fee, someone confirm.

    I shot a short documentary on drifting when they did southern fried slide at Turner Field. I interviewed Marshall and the Lexus guy, they are from Myrtle Beach right?

    And count me in for Formula D!

    Is the GS an auto? If so I saw that guy a couple years ago. You could tell that the slushbox was making drifting very difficult.

    Damn, sorry people, I've been WAY out of the loop for WAY too long!
    As it turns out, I will be at the event, but may not be able to meet up with you all. I'll be working as a marshal this weekend, but I'm not sure what the times are yet.

    are you guys setting up a tent?

    I may stop by the tent if you do, but likely I'll try to hang out with a few friends going.

    Drift is usually so freaking unorganized when it comes to parking, its rediculous. It took me 4 hours 2 years ago just to get from 10A/B to the exit

    yeah I remember that, they were having a burnout contest with a video camera. They asked me if I wanted to try with me in a 4cyl accord :squint:

    Pissed me off when I realized thats what I had spent all this time waiting for.


    I meant a tent down near the fence to sit under though.

    A tent would be nice if the weather is hot. I don't own a big tent like that though.

    Supposed to be partly cloudy on Fri and a good chance of rain on Sat.....

    Some of my friends were tryin to get a tent, grill, beers, etc together. Might have to add umbrellas to that list

    Did we designate a time/place to meet up or were we deciding against that?
