2008 NICOFEST: Official Carisle Nicofest autocross/drift thread. Please join us

[Bubba1]

Bubba looking forward to watching you guys drift the golf cart again this year. Do you know if Deiselman will be there again this year cause his truck is badass?

Good question. I think Deiselman mentioned somewhere he was gonna try to come, but I'm not sure if he was planning to drive in or fly in. That truck combined with his driving skills were amazing last year.

The track is little longer than the two pictures. I didn't measure how long it is, Guessing a tad under 1/4 mile each way. To complete one lap with the cones is little over 30 seconds. We were doing two lap autocross runs. Last year there were maybe 15 turns per lap, 30 per run. That's a lot of turns.

Red dot area is a little wider than it looks, you can fit two cars beside each other.

Blue dots: for autocross we run cones throughout that area, which is off camber. We take full advantage of that extra asphalt.

yellow dots is actually a small access road/emergency exit. there's a gate farther up road. It's also a little run off area if you go too hot into that big sweeping turn.

Hey , thanks for the info!!!

There were several NICOnauts drifting too.

I didn't time the guy in the Atom. Very fun little car.

Wouldn't miss it for the world since my s13 is finally ready to rip. I'll let the other lanc lanc guys know.

I'll be interested mainly in auto X but I'd like to try drifting for fun.

I don't have inspections licenses but I'll be offering to volunteer any positions that you need including corner staffers (won't run me over!)

This is going to be great!

[ILoveMyRHS13]

You know I'm down. Hopefully Keegan's car will be set.

[mrgreeneyes]

haha, hell yeah it will be done! gimme a few weeks yet, im on the home stretch i just realized lol. come down and help me finish it!

Ill bring the artic-camo-hooded coupe down for sure, dunno if i feel like tracking it, but then again, i have made some NICE investments lately... she should drive like a slow track-star lol... and heck, if i blow the KA... gives me a good reason to start building a CA...

but im in for sure. ILoveMyRHS13, you can ride down with me bro, we will be meeting up with Didderson and WC, and imma try to get my buddy to bring his z31, couple more dudes with s13's... get a nice caravan going...

[FoxMarketingVersa]

I will be there with both Turbo Altima Coupe's (White One, Silver One on the way now). Can't wait to beat the **** out of the car on the track and see what it can do!!

[DJButton]

I'll be there for sure to vlounteer wherever it's needed, might bring as many as 10 cars down with me! Looks like it's gonna be great attendance this year!

[MavericStephenc]

Actually, funny this is Tom told me that you guys are working on the coupe friday if you aren't working and I was thinking about coming by and helping if that was cool. Also, my friend might bring his Z31 as well, hahah. They'll be little butt-buddies... Well I hope not but still. Oh yeah, I'm thinking CA, too.

[frapjap]

I extended this invite to some good friends of New England Pontiac. Some of these guys have some serious track built GTP's and the like. Hopefully we'll see a few new faces sign up.

I'd like to register for the drifting. What is the schedule? If the auto cross does not interfere with the drifting, i will participate in that as well.
