Listen,

I was pretty skeptical about signing up my first time too. Driftwater has got to be the most lenient and willing to work with you track/group of people I know. I had never drifted before, ever let alone a track event. I signed up, went out there, listened carefully in the drivers meeting, went out to the track and had a damn good time. There isn't much you CAN'T do. Anyone there would be more than willing to help you along and guide you, most of it is common sense. Someone faster than you, point them by, you spin out -don't throw rocks on the track by throttling it. It is a damn good time and for $125.00 you can't beat it. Not to mention, the chow hall has a banging buffet.

If your still feeling uncomfortable after the drivers meeting ask someone who has done a couple of these events for a ride along. I wouldnt mind giving rides for a couple of laps
you realize that you will not be at speed with the TSCC set up, they posted a layout and the long slalom on the straight will kill the speed. for the amount of seat time you get doing auto-x vs this event and the cost, this is really a hell of a deal. work schedule has kept me away but the stars aligned this time for me.

TSCC also runs one lap time trials correct?


Basically ran like an autox, where as Driftwater is run like a road course (you know youve been there before).

Im not saying you wont have fun with the TSCC guys, but Full Track > Short Track, MANY LAPS AT A TIME > One lap at a time, Unlimited runs > 5 Timed runs all day.

they are only doing a segment of the track, and just like a typical auto-x
