All day practice drifting event at:
Gwinnett County Fairgrounds
2405 Sugarloaf Parkway - Lawrenceville, GA 30045

Registration & Tech: 7:00am - 7:45am (FOERST session) & 1:00pm - 1:45pm (second session). If you registered for "all day" you MUST be at the AM tech.
Mandatory Driver's Meeting: 7:45am (DO NOT BE LATE IF YOU PLAN ON DRIVING)
Cars on Track: 8:00am - 8:00pm

Pre-registration $50.00 per session and $75 for All-Day pass
Day of Event $75.00 per session and $100 for All-Day pass

* There will be a max of 40 cars per session. Once a session, whether it be AM or PM, reaches 40 cars, only session passes for the opposite session will be sold. "All-Day" cars are included in the 40 car count.
example: 30 drivers purchase All-Day passes, 10 drivers purchase AM session passes, and 3 driver purchases a PM pass; the 30 All-Day drivers and 10 AM drivers will equal the 40 car max for the AM session. Now the 30 All-Day drivers from the AM session will flow over to the PM session which will leave 7 spots open for the PM session.

Spectators are $5.00 at the gate. valid all day.
Passengers are $10.00 at the gate. valid all day
if at all possible, when pre-registering, please do not include the passenger payment with the driver payment. We ask that you please pay at the gate.*cash only*

Pre-Registration Ends on Sunday, June 12th!!


NOTES:
1. There will be a 40 DRIVER MAX. To make sure that everyone gets PLENTY of seat time. Once we reach the 40 DRIVER LIMIT THAT'S IT.

2. 2. ALL DRIVERS NEED TO ARRIVE BETWEEN 7-7:30AM (FOERST Session) and 1-1:30pm (second session). If you are paid and do not arrive by 7:30AM or 1:30pm (depending on what session you signed up for), your registration will not be accepted. This will be 100% enforced.

3. General tech inspection guidelines --
a. Battery tie down -- you must have a strong battery tie down (preferably metal). Bungee cords are no good. Do not even bother getting in the tech line if your battery is not secured well. Battery boxes must be similarly secured.
b. Seat belts -- you must have a functional 3 (or more) point seat belt that is securely fastened.
c. Seat bolts -- make sure all your seat bolts are tight and present. You will not be able to drive with less than 4 bolts holding your seat to the chassis.
d. Lug Nuts / Studs -- you must have all lug nuts and studs per wheel. 3/4 or 4/5 lugs/studs fails tech. No exceptions.
e. Wheel bearings -- must not exhibit excessive play.

4. There will be a tire changer onsite!!!

You must be 18 to drive by yourself. If you are a licensed driver under 18 and would like to participate, you must have a parent or guardian present with ID to sign the minor waiver.

Any Sponsorship information can be sent to ChadMK4@gmail.com or rsims20@bellsouth.net

In order to run tandem at practice events, driver's must have full cages installed, fire suits, race approved restraints, and several top 8 finishes at USD competitions on race tracks and/or possess a NASA racing license. And agree with the other driver that there is a chance they may collide and accept the consequences of their actions. This isn't done to be harsh or strict, but to ensure safety. We aren't saying certain people aren't qualified, but we have to make a standard somewhere otherwise everyone will want to run tandem.

understandable. Andy and three other guys have all the safety equipment, but lack the 8 finishes and NASA license. bummer.......oh well. 8)

The three people I know of (myself included) who would be interested in running tandem don't have NASA licenses... but have SCCA Formula D licenses & cars/safety equipment certified to run in FD. I have talked to the other two guys in detail - and this is something we would love to do... consequences fully understood.

We would love to get some tandem practice in if we can. If the powers that be feel that it's too much of a risk for us to do so... that's understandable. We aren't trying to step on anyone's toes.

Either way... this event is the Monday following FD Houston! That's going to be three days slammed with drifting, lol! I hope I can make it back in time!
