some of their time?

Im wanting to get a little more into drifting this year, and give it a try. My platform is definatly different and probably harder to start out on , but id really like to attempt it. Ive done some research, rode in some cars, watched Drift Bible reliogiously :lmfao: , but I would like some "in-car" help. I honestly dont want to sound stupid, but im just asking for maybe a day or two in the coming month or so. Im not sure where you guys practice.

Ill pay for dinner/lunch or whatever. I understand people have lives and usually need a little incentive. And it doesnt have to be a cheap place. Its on me.

or any SEDA event ;). any event i'm at i'm always glad to help anyone wherever i can so if you want some instruction just ask george, don't waste your time with the illegal stuff because you won't learn anything. same offer extends to tank or anyone else wanting to learn.

yeah, my name over there is "icantdrift". and the black 5.0 is Kieran from GTE, very nice guy and those cars are a bit of a handful compared to others (steering is a little slow and his car has pretty snappy power).

if either of you guys are up for a trip SEDA is having an event in Nashville on Feb 25th. should be a great event and they are letting us run tandem :D (those who have proper safety gear and driving skills at least). gonna be a great event and SEDA events rock since you can have your friends come and actually get ridealongs in your car :).

for all those asking about ridealongs, you'll have to ask Erik Jacobs or another DG official about that. their rule as it stands is no passengers unless they are also drivers in the event, so you'd have to be registered to do so. i will be at all of their local events this year (since i get to do them for free :D) and as long as they ok it i'll take people for rides. there will also be a few events at AMS for both DG and SEDA as far as i know, and ridealongs are allowed at the SEDA events for sure as long as you pay the $10 gate fee. this year should be really interesting though, with DG allowing tandem practice along with SEDA doing the same, and add Drift Fury (maximum angle) to the list of local organizers and i won't even have to leave town to get my fix this year.

like i said, don't be afraid to ask me or any of the other drivers you think might be able to give you some pointers. i can't think of any local drivers that would have any issue with helping someone else interested/participating in the sport when asked (i kinda like teaching sometimes more than driving).

a warning to you guys: once you hit your first event you'll start spending all your time scouring atlanta for cheap tires and spending all your money on making your car borderline streetworthy :D.
