    Welcome to the biggest amateur drifting series in the United States.
    Thats a hell of a claim in which I'm going to disagree with.

    As of right now the largest that I am aware of is US Drift but they usually stay up north. I wouldn't doubt if there was one as large, or possibly larger, on the west coast.

    what are you considering the largest that they have 3 competitions, b/c everything else they do is practice? 3 competitions isn't large by any means.

    You know, people say whatever they want when they are advertising. McDonalds claims to have the best hamburger and Pepsi the best cola...I mean it's one sentence that isn't a big deal. So what if it's not the largest? It's local and $60 and is giving cash prizes. Sounds good to me. I know it's competeing with your event and that sucks. I'm sure ya'll will be able to work things out. I read on the SEDA board that it was an accident that they are doing it on the same day as SEDA. I'm going to research to see if there is even an amateur drift competition anywhere...PERIOD. I know there is US drift...I just don't know the specifics as far as their competion goes.

    get some used rubber. That's what we used to do. Sometimes you can buy used tires for like $10 each.

    I could meet you at R*Speed one day and get the cash from you then process your registration via Paypal. If you wanna do it that way.

    Answering your question without knowing who it was directed at;

    WhiteRoadster, HiPSI, and myself have all been in various drifting videos, some of which are on the internet. Hell I think I had video of Ran Kizama, from SEDAs Untouchable on my computer for a while, but I never edited a real untouchable video I don't think...

    Rocker Arms are the little lever things that open the valves in (I believe) an OHV motor (like some V8s) which are attached to teh push rods.
