WA Evergreen Drift - Round 2 Championship - May 17th 2009

Need more RX Love, come one come all!!!



Round 2 of Evergreen Drift Kicks Off, May 17th!

Be there on Sunday 5/17 to watch the season kickoff Round 2 of the 2nd Annual Championship Series! Drivers will test their skills and battle for points on the road to becoming the Evergreen Drift Champion.



Event Info //

* Date - 5/17/09
* More Info: http://www.evergreendrift.com

* Location - Evergreen Speedway at the fairgrounds in Monroe, WA
* Drifting from 11am to 5pm
* Pit gate opens at 9am and close at 12pm
* Drivers - $100
* Pit pass - $30
* Grandstands - $10 (Kids under 12 Free!)

Full driver information is on the Registration Page. - http://www.evergreendrift.com/registration/

Last year Victor Moore provided the consistent high quality runs required to become the 2008 champion and earn an invite to the Formula Drift ProAm qualifier in Long Beach.

This year the talent is better than ever, the cars are more extreme, and the action will be more intense with changes to the competition format.

Changes for this year include:

Two Classes >
// 5/8th class - Tandem battles on the full sized FD course. 80 MPH 4th gear entry speeds and no room for mistakes with the best drivers in the Northwest gunning for ProAm glory.

// 3/8ths class - This class gives all skill levels a chance to compete. If you can pass tech you have a shot at winning. For those who do not have a cage and cannot tandem our Pseudo Tandem elimination format allows all drivers the opportunity to compete head to head in bracket eliminations with a shot at the podium.
// Top 32 Tandem - We are expanding from top 16 to top 32 bracket eliminations. That means more head to head competition and a bigger gauntlet for the top guns to reach the podium.

When the tire smoke settles trophies, cash, and product certificates will be awarded to the top 4 finishers and top qualifier in each class.

Stay tuned for additional announcements on EvergreenDrift.com:
  • Purse amount details
  • 2009 Evergreen Drift Rules
  • 2009 Evergreen Drift Competition Rules


DRIVERS>

Due to the low turnout for the 5/8th's so far this round will be 3/8ths only.

And don't you fret - You will get plenty of runs and a chance to win the purse. Up to 32 drivers will make the first tandem elimination rounds so everyone gets a taste of bracket elimination action. If we finish early it's open exhibition drift time!

I've been trying to convince my buddy Mike Hatch to bring his tire mount machine. He recently bummed one from his work (Discount Tire) and had to overhaul the hydraulic system. It works good as new now!

There is a Les Schwab that sponsors the drift events, there's one in Monroe.

I also swapped in a new clutch & flywheel for this event! w00t!

He is the owner of The Chop Shop and is actually one of my best friends. I grew up with him, and Eddie actually built his website. Way to open your mouth and look like an *** instead of asking question. He is a great guy... You’re a dumbass... Actually you should associate yourself with him, he does some of the best custom exhaust and custom work in northwest Washington...

OR, next time you mention his name you could say "Mike with The Chop Shop" rather than "Chop Shop Mike"... Especially since there are so many "professional thieves" within the tuner community. And we all know what a "chop shop" is. You too look like an *** for being so butt hurt and defensive. No need to be so emotional over it. Just use your post to clarify.

Or you could just not be retarded... I was talking to Ed, the promoter for Evergreen Speed way not you... If you knew him, you would know everyone calls him "chop shop mike" because in our circle of friends there is like 15 mikes. Don't be all pissy yourself. You got owned and you are trying to save face...

Retarded? Thinking rationally and telling you how to deal with a situation where you got butthurt over nothing is retarded? And, I got owned... ?? I fail to see how me lending you input is me getting owned... Especially since there is nothing in your post but calling me a retard for telling you to be more clear so you don't get butthurt over someone's post. I don't see any pissy attitude in any of my posts. I'm simply a mediator with a neutral opinion telling you to not be so sensitive. And how could I try to save face? I wasn't the one whose post you got butthurt over. Seriously?! Wow...... You obviously have no idea who you're talking to right now, do you?

I'm sorry but all I can do is laugh at how stupid that was...
