Hello everyone, my name is Alex and like many others I have been upset about the recent events with drifting in nor-cal. Well, I have a solution for all us. Recently I wrote a letter to the editor in a local paper just to see if anyone would actually see it, and well someone did! Steve Hazelton of American Canyon owns Vallejo Speedway, and is a local racing promoter. He read my article and is very interested in getting some new venues for us. I met with him today just to discuss some things and possibilities. Now he wants to get in touch with Todd and Don, and everyone who runs NCDA, because he is new to drifting and will need some help on how some things are done. Now what we need most is to get people together who are SERIOUS about finding new venues for us. I know with the help of NCDA we can get this done. What he is thinking of is at least a monthly race for us to get together, compete, and so on. He knows places in Stockton, Roseville, Lakeport, etc. All local area for the bay, about the same type of drive to altamont. Depending on where you are coming from. Our goals are to make a local venue drifter friendly, to gain publicity from new and different type of people, and most of all spread the word about the new exciting sport of drifting. Hey guys we can finally show them we aren't just punk kids and we can do something!

Action: I need everyone who is interested to email me with their info.
Please have
-your name
-location
-occupation
-what you drive
-pics of your car might help too

Basically we need to get as many people together so the people who own the track/fairgrounds can see that they will be attracting big crowds, and more $$$ for them. Please everyone lets get together and make something happen. We can't rely on Altamont anymore because it's proven to be an unstable place to race. One minute we're in, and the next we're out. Hopefully we can make a movement and get the drift scene out in the bay a better reputation. Thanks to all, and thank you for reading.

Thanks man I knew someone on here had to be interested!!! Yes please send all your friends who wanna drift over. The more people we can get the better. Thanks again man

Alex

 

Let's do it. I'll gather up some info too and send it your way, bro....

 

i'm down, i'll be sending info right now

 

I knew that this was a good idea. It just took some time for people to read it and post.

 

I would be interested but I need a stronger Diff. before I can even burn my tires...

Drifting is a cool sport, but also cost a lot.

 

haha I did it with open diff in my car when I started. Now I run on diffs from the junkyard. Most have well over 100k miles, but I get em for $50 a pop. So, when they blow I don't care...lol

On the contrary it's a pretty cheap sport. I only spend $50 on a pair of tires and how ever much it cost to get in on the track. But yea thanks guy. I can't stop saying thanks cause I need everyone's input to get the ball rolling. Soon I shall hear word from Steve Hazelton about the next step.
