Formula Drift (car show)

[4dmin]

Yo Paul, I understand why IA supports HIN (as did I) but if you’re going to hijack a thread at least give all the info as to why things went the way they did… I was there and so were you two years ago when NCCA was running the car show for Slipstream, it was THEIR fault not Slipstreams that the show was judged and handled incorrectly. If memory serves NCCA also runs the HIN shows which was a major F-UP here last year and IMO the main reason there is no HIN ATL this year. There are a lot of folks on this site and others that didn’t receive there entry fees back and sat in a parking lot for over 6 hours trying to get in the place to participate “which I’m sure would like a piece of them”, I.E. a good reason to pull the show. Did I want to see HIN go away, nope, but it is what it is…

When it came to last years Formula D car show Slipstream changed it up to do the right thing but damage from the year before (again because of NCCA) hurt participation, instead of 150+ cars (which will come back when they realize what happened) it turned into 30+. So here we are pushing a good car show and drift event with coverage in our home state, not NC! If you don’t want to support fine, make a thread about HIN and back off the support side of Formula D, but you certainly didn’t need to do what you’ve done in this thread (uncalled for hijack) and make a national Drift event and car show with good media coverage look bad…

P.S. I’m in! And will help in anyway possible to make this a great event…

I'm not thread Hi-Jacking i'm stating the facts... Last year i was there doing promotional work for HIN and i had nothing but problems with the entire crew from Formula D, they are very unorganized and really don't care about locals. Its plain and simple, they are more worried about the big drift sponsors and everything else going on then the locals showing, local vendors, etc...

As i stated before HIN has been very good to IA they have always taken care of us w/ the upmost respect and we've had a great realationship with them for years. If i had a show car i would be at HIN over Formula D anyday, the coverage is better, the event is better, and it is geared towards show cars. Do what you want we have people taking coverage of Formulad D, but i will be in NC at HIN having a hella good time at a much larger car show.

you want to see local cars go to formula d, you want competition and see shit you don't see everyday i'll see you at HIN NC
