I would be down. You may be the same person that posted this up on another forum, or you could be someone else but there is interest in having drifting at that location.
The only problem I see with it in your post on here is I dont know if the owner has any idea how sucky it is having around 50 drivers at 1 event (for the drivers that is). It ends up being so much waiting around in order to get some runs in and you dont end up getting that much seat time. That could kill the chance of getting allot of drivers to want to return. I think I only got 20 runs in at the last event and it was very properly ran by people that know how to put on a drift event. There was like 48 drivers in that event. It was put on at a good well known venu at the Nashville super speedway and was put on by seda and traction optional.
So with that being said, I really think you need to bring these points up to the track owner and have him think of a more realistic number around 30 drivers. For an all day event for the first time at a new venu and the first time yall putting on a event and organizing it I really think you would have your hands full trying to get 50 drivers there and nearly impossible to get them to want to return. Less than 20 runs for the drive, hotel, registration fees ect isnt going to be woth it to most. Now if the group was capped at around 30 people that would be more like it.
The best way for a venu to support more than 30 drivers is when the track dont loop back and have the potential for head ons and then when a car makes it so far away you can send another. It is easy to cycle cars through quickly that way.
Last event after I did my 5 runs I had to wait a good hour for my turn to come up again.
