I think we can handle that!gniknave wrote:As long as somebody gets me piss drunk on the night of the 9th (my BDay) I'm there! I've been looking to take the Titan on a road trip. Unfortunately I won't be drifting or auto-xing that.

I am SO not feeling the love... after all I've done for you... *sniff*....EZcheese15 wrote:
But between the 2 of us, I think we're blacklisted on all of them. I'm driving up this year BTW with pappasmurf, so I can abuse my G on the track. No drifting in my car though Greg...unless you are buying me a new set of tires.
You were the first name on the list....starkos14 wrote:bubba, list me!!! as driftpa member or whatever... im so down

You might find someone that'll loan you one, but I wouldn't guarantee it'll happen. I hope you succeed, but I would recommend you try to buy one. They're not that expensive.maxentropy wrote:Any NICOclubbers have a SA2000 or M2000 (or newer) rated helmet that I could borrow for the autox?
You'll have to review your own policy as far as whether it covers "track" events. Many basic policies don't. But as far as this autocross course goes , it has so many turns, you're not going to get out of second gear. So we're not talking the real high speed/high damage potential that you would find at Watkins Glen. There are a few spots on this course where the fence seems rather close, but with an unlimited number of runs available, you simply start slow, learn the nuances and "be careful" spots, and then build speed. I don't believe we've had any significant autocross accidents in two years. the only big fence impact we had last year was by Jason Ellis, a celebrity noobie drifter in a 500Hp Mustang who went way beyond his limit early on. He crinkled a quarter panel and kept going.maxentropy wrote:Thanks bubba--
For any of you out there that do a bit of autox and drift---
Will insurance cover if my car gets destroyed at Carlisle or any track for that matter? I've never taken my car on any track ever so forgive the noob question.
I would like to autox my coupe at carlisle and am just wondering how crazy I can be...
What I'm saying is with the right driver, any car can be the quickest.Logan76 wrote:so say a 400whp civic with a huge turbo and no low end would do terrible? damn, I guess if I go im going for the burnout contest

Corey, if you come early, we'll gladly put you to work. There's plenty to do.We'll discuss specifics when it gets closer.corey240 wrote:I am defiantly going, add me to the list for driving, Im gona drift this year. I will also help do whatever I can when im not driving. Bubba or Greg email me at slide.racer@hotmail.com and lmk if you guys need help with anything. I plan on coming earlie for that reason, and alternating driving and helping throughout the days.

FYI There are some nice vids of starkoS14 drifting Carlisle on youtube.starkos14 wrote:ALSO, I HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND ALL DRIFTERS, BEGINNER OR NOT TO DO AUTOCROSS AS WELL. IF YOU PUSH THE CAR CORRECTLY THROUGH THE AUTOX COURSE, IT WILL HELP YOU FIND LINES AND APPROPRIATE SPEEDS FOR DRIFTING THIS TINY TRACK. EVENTUALLY I WAS DRIFTING ALMOST THE WHOLE AUTOCROSS COURSE AND IT REALLY HELPED ME DEVELOP A FEEL FOR THE COURSE.
THE TRACK IS TINY AND IT SUCKS, BUT IT CAN BE A LOT OF FUN AND DIFFERENT TECHNIQUES CAN BE USED BECAUSE ITS SO TIGHT
Joel, just an FYI, the event has been reduced to 2 days this year. But still to your point, hard to beat 2 consecutive track daysBubba1 wrote:Hard to beat 3 consecutive track days.
Ha. What I meant to say was in ldstang50's case, one day at Pocono + 2 at Carlisle equals 3 consecutive track days. I just looked at what I wrote and I see it looks wrong. My bad.EZcheese15 wrote:

Ah...didn't catch that. So I guess it is 3 track days for him. Rock on! I've driven Pocono before. It was a great track! When I did it we did turn 1 of the tri-oval & infield.Bubba1 wrote:

Yeah, I'd like to try Pocono at some point. It's on my list. My new track to try this year is NJ Motorsports Park's Lightning. I did Thunderbolt for the first time last year and thought it was fun.EZcheese15 wrote:
