My car was parked near the ambulance. On the other side of the fence - I got on the track later that night. I did see your car, but wasn't entirely sure it was yours... oh well.

Topless - I took some video footage...but nothing good. Only like 5 or so minutes...I will post it if you want.

Call or PM Matt Petty personally to reserve a position for Friday. I believe he set a limit for people that can sign up.

lol. Topless - just fyi. The vert with the gold wheels in the front in the importintelligence vert. I only have one pic on this thread....the same one I posted earlier.

now...if you knew that, and you REALLY meant just my vert...well...like I said before...its too damn loosey goosey. EVERY and I mean EVERY piece of this suspension needs to be overhauled. Tc Rods, bushings, need sway's...etc. the Vert WILL drift as is...but....I need to get some more pieces for better feedback.

Most people I ride with say the same thing to me: "Hey, don't worry too much...this is a hard car to drift. So just keep practicing your skills..."

no pics from me...but some might show up on Club Loose's site. The day was good....I learned how to handle an E-brake drift better. I really never tried this technique before - since I just jumped into ClutchKicking from the beginning. I def had fun.
