Drift event(s) at the fairgrounds in 2012.

Would you try it if you didn’t have to travel? Would you come spectate?
We are working on some local events for next season. I have been talking to some of the South Dakota and Minnesota drivers and they will be coming to drive as well.
I am just trying to gauge some local interest to see if there is anyone else that would jump on board.
Any feedback/opinions would be awesome. Constructive criticism only please.
Here is a vid of the guys from SD.

I'll show up, not to drive, but i'll show up to watch.

our goal is to gain awarness for the sport in ND. As well as cater to people that want to try it but don't want to travel. As most of you know I started on the street. But I no longer support that at all. So in turn we are trying to provide a legal and safe enviroment for people to learn.

Who is your sponsor? Seems like a good opportunity for someone to advertise with this, and i'm sure there will be costs associated with it.

Sponsors are still up in the air. I am trying to make sure this will be worth it for sponsors. It isn't exactly cheap. Costs for lot rental, insurance, barriers/cones, ect get spendy. But I think if I can get 1 successful event the rest could be self funding if need be.

I'm in.... To watch Colton hit a wall lolz

So here is how the event would be run: 60$ entry fee(any money made will go towards mor events) there would be a driver cap at 20-25 drivers, which will allow for plenty of seat time for each driver. There would be 2 run groups, beginner and advanced. The beginner run group will be made out of drivers that are looking to try it out. The advanced run group will have drivers with a season or 2 of experiance, and caged/tandem drivers will be in that group. Each run group will go for 30 min and then switch, approximatly 8 hours of track time for the day. For the beginners there will be a few advanced drivers to help them if they are having issues with anything.
There will be tandem, but all tandem drivers will have a 4 point cage with door bars, and will have to be comfortable with who they are driving against.
If time allows at the end of the day we can have a fun competition of some sort!
If any questions just ask.

this would be cool to do... make sure you hit up all the MN forums as there are quite a few guys into it. Hit up NOS and see if you can do it on a weekend they don't have events maybe they will come down, and can bring some people with them. When I was at MAP it was the EPDC (Empty Pockets Drift Crew) that were waiting to organize more events and grassroots type of events. See if you can find a way to get a hold of them to get them involved as well, the guy I talked to was Eric Moen, and I know the NOS guy should have his number as I think he's sponsoring his car. Always cool to see more events around, just have to gets cars here for it which is always the challenge.
