Driftwest 2

[Drew]

Right folks, here we go again.

Have spoken to the M.O.D. about a date, and no problems are foreseen for the 13th - 14th October.

Remember, this is not confirmed yet, but if it is different, it will be a week later. Anyone who can't attend because of a date change will be refunded in full.

A few changes this time round.....

Scrap tyres: You WILL take them home.

Rubbish: Put it in tied up bin bags.. Then I'll sort it, just don't take liberties.

The gate: With the issues we had last time, it will be open at set times. And only at set times. Don't panic, there will be plenty of opportunity to get fags and fuel.

Evening entertainment: Believe it or not, we won't be asking the DJ back. Instead we'll get someone with a big car stereo to sound us out, and we're planning a rodeo bull.... hehehe...

Track marking will remain tyres and occasional cones, as before. Cones are stupid expensive, so not this time.

As you can see the price has risen.... that's just to take some pressure off of us... .the last one was so tight it's not funny - it ended up costing me after the clean-up costs

We anticipate Huge interest in this one - so get in quick... because we WILL be turning people away.

All attendees MUST pay in full in advance. NO cash in the gate this time around - cos we got a bollocking from the M.O.D:(

Same drill as before... paypal to [e-mail] with some details on your payment please, as it got confusing last time.

or PM me and I'll sort my address for ya.

You know the format.... hooligans weekend away - just don't take the michael out of the few rules we do enforce...

Come on peeps, this ones looking even more funtimes!

There's a few free spectator places up for grabs for people who want to marshall - the driver marshall places are taken (suprise, suprise...). PM me and we'll talk.

Comp:

The plan is thus.... Saturday will be pratice only, with a small informal competition on the Sunday for each of the disciplines (Drag, Drift, T/A).

As timing gear seems to be out of our reach (£2000 to rent anyone???) the T/A will be timed by an official with a stopwatch, and the drag will be 'first past the post goes through' (if it's too close to call, it'll be 'one more time' until we find a clear winner through missed gear/botched start/whatever).

There will be limited places in the competitions, and it will be a case of sign on for the comp on the Saturday (don't panic, no extra charge....). Those only attending on the Sunday will have to let us know if they want a space.

For the Drag, names will be drawn out of the hat on Saturday night for the first rounds - shoot out rules. 3 classes - FWD, RWD and 4WD. And the silly stuff need not apply (that means you on the bike).

For the T/A, it'll simply be who posts the fastest lap by our stopwatch wins. 2 official runs each, slowest one dropped. And the track will be decided on and not changed from 12 Noon on Saturday. Again, 3 classes - FWD, RWD and 4WD. Silly shit welcome

The drift will be based on 3 solo runs, judged out of 100 by judges yet to be named, with the worst run dropped. Then the final 8-ish will go out twin and be judged again out of 100.

Anyone NOT happy to twin will be judged to have forfeit at the twin stage. 2 classes for drift - JDM Bummers and sheds.

We are now acquiring prizes from all over the place, for each of the classes and disciplines. But don't go expecting a new set of 19" Advans... we aint that good yet...

Come on peeps, this ones looking even more funtimes!

i'm in couldn't make the last one so getting in early oh and HELLO

[Drew]

Yo people.

Get your fingers outta your arses and pay the man.

I've just set up a new ticketing system.... means you have to print the ticket out yourself and bring it along with you for entry. And yes, the tickets are barcoded to stop you naughty people from fraudulising them....

Click here >>>>>>>>>>>> express.ts.com/k?driftwest to buy 'em.

5 weeks till cut off date, and I don't mind saying that thus far, the response has been rather underwhelming.

I was expecting (with the amount of interest shown both at the first event and immediately after the first event) that places would be snapped up almost immediately. However, there are still looooads of places avaliable.

I know it's gone up, but my good lord, not that much that it's scary surely?

I'm keeping one list constantly updated, and it can be found here..

www.trampdrift.com/html/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=1979

And if you're not a TrampDrift member yet, why not?

Please don't make me panic and plead this time.... I can only take so much.....

[Drew]

RA RA RA!

For them that are concerned, I notice that I never actually posted that the date was confirmed.... it is

13th - 14th October, Brawdy Airfield - thats in Wales.

Thats 5 weeks away people - and only 3 till cut off!!!!!

This means (for the hard of reading), that all people attending need to be paid up by the 1st October.

Right now there are places left - but I've also got a LOT and I mean A LOT of end of the month promises.

So can we all start paying the man, because, just like last time, if the numbers 'aint there, neither will the event.

Tyre van is dependant on numbers - without the dosh, these things can't be organised.

Burger van is confirmed, as are the toilets.

Entertainment isn't... still working on it. The DJ was a waste of skin cells, so he' been canned - what do ya fancy?

All I'm doing now is waiting on bookings.

w00t for TDW2!

Oh, and again, here's the list linky:

[Drew]

This is your 2 week reminder people.

That means 2 weeks till payment cut off day - and 4 weeks till TDW2.

Soooooo.... if you want to get to gods own playground, you need to start thinking about getting sorted, it's coming up fast now!

Reminder: ON-line ticketing is avaliable, or you can just paypal [e-mail] and go on the list as last time round.

Wooooooo 4 weeks to go!
