I suck at drifting. Gymkhana's going to be a comedy of errors but it will be a blast.

You should see all the marks on my car from hitting the cones at auto-x.

Tried getting it off but figured its battle scars so left it on there.

The batmobile will be there, hard parked in the show etc. that way batman can get some good footage of @Ultramaroon lol I will be up there the night beforehand for stancewars, I'll make a seperate post to gauge interest on a cruise up to Seattle Saturday morning for anybody who's interested. Not going to thread jack. Good luck to everybody getting your builds ready for the meet. Looking forward to this, thank you @HATED1

I figure if I lay the carnuba on extra thick I can slip right through them all.

I thought you'd be using vaseline... but that works to.

tandem drifting just takes trust.

But yes, they do require helmets while on the track.

Does anyone know what specific rating I should be looking for? I have some friends I can borrow a helmet from, I just don't want to show up with the wrong helmet and can't go haha

updated on first post.

**WE'VE GOT 86 NEWS & UPDATES!***

Alright guys/gals! Here's a bit more information for the lucky 60 track drivers and the Gymkhana participants.
For the full track portion, NO helmet will be needed. It will be a lead/follow, no passing. You will run 6 laps consecutively and most likely run more

If you plan on participating in the Gymkhana, a helmet IS needed. If you have your own, then bring it!. They will have loaner helmets available, all that is needed is that you purchase a $3 head sock! Bring spares tires if you got them!
It is highly encouraged that you preregister so that we can get everyone on the track quicker on the day of! At this point only CASH will be accepted at the gate for those who are unsure of their schedules/availability. This is the 86 EVENT you don't want to miss!

Get excited! This is gonna be awesome

So looks like @HATED1 posted all the info. If you plan on only driving the track, no helmet needed. But the other activities will.

I'd venture to say anything SA2010+ is accepted.

Tandem drifting may just take trust but tandem drifting with a happy ending takes great skill which, trust me, neither of us has.
