Exclamation Track Day In SE Texas

TRACK DAY IN SE TEXAS
We will be holding a Grind 101 practice event on Sunday, October 30th at Gulf Greyhound Park in LaMarque, TX. Registration is open immediately:

http://www.dailydrifter.com/Registration.htm



Pre-registration is $75 per driver (TONS OF SEAT TIME GUARANTEED!) 2 spectator passes included

Registration on the day of the event is $100 so be sure to pre-register!

Spectators fee is $5 (2 passes included with driver entry.

Spectators are welcome to ride along!!! ( Helmets are required.)

Tire mounting will be handled ONSITE by Gainespeed for $7 per tire. If you have any special requests for them to bring out please email them at monica@gainespeed.com with your tire sizes. If they dont show up we do have backup plans.

Try to bring at least 8 used or 4 new tires, make sure you dont run out! Also bring a jack, and tools!! Dont forget your lug keys if you have them!

Tech: Make sure all of your lugnuts are there and torqued, wheelbearings/suspension/shocks/seatbelts must be in good working order, dont forget to top up your car with fluids and change them make sure the car is ready to get beat on. Also drifting creates a lot of oil slosh, just to be safe add an extra 1/2 quart of oil to full.

Schedule:
7:30 AM-8:30 AM Registration and tech
8:45 AM drivers meeting
9:00 AM First car out
12:30 PM Lunch break (Quiet time for dogs)
1:30 PM Practice resumes
(One final quiet time break for dog walking)
6:00 PM Practice ends

Dont miss out on a chance to drift in a safe and controlled environment! Yes, it is more expensive due to the new venue but it's still cheaper than getting arrested and having your car impounded (~$250 in case you were wondering).

Also don't miss your chance to get pointers from Texas's best drifters, Several Formula Drift competitors will be there to help instruct.

Please direct any questions to alex@dailydrifter.com or john@dailydrifter.com or you can contact John at 713-882-2338.


ifyou need help or an place to stay post on houston240sx.com and let us know!!!

see you there!

I've spent plenty of time in that parking lot. The only track there is the one the greyhounds run around

well just come out and see, at the least you'll get to meet lots of really cool people that you probably never knew were in houston. i'm coming all the way from Lafayette, La with a lot of friends. Don't miss out on a good time. What else are you going to do on a Sunday go to Church!?

I can say Alex puts on a great event.... I can attest that parking lot isn't worth crap though.
