Beginners at Punta Gorda event?
- Thread starter Jen
- Start date
punta gorda is not beginner friendly. if you have autocross or racing experience its not as bad but a straight up beginner its a NO NO. concrete wall around the whole track. how far are you from Naples i foget where braenton is?
stay on the bottom NOOBS and u'll be fine!!!
Damn guys she bought the car last week and just found out what drifting was a few months ago. and its a 350z i would rather her not lose that car and start off on a parking lot event.

Parking lot events are much friendlier to non shit spec cars.

harri.... u scare me sometimes!!!! :bigthumbu
to me... just go out there, and have f*ckin fun!!!!!
^^^ agreed!!!
I have friends coming in for July 4th week... so, I may not make it to Moroso...that's why Punta Gorda would have been my first. I will attempt to be at Moroso though.
Do I need a helmet for these events?
I'll probably be a big chicken anyway... and won't get the speed up to go anywhere near a wall. I just want to get comfortable with driving the car and maybe go just a little bit sideways.

too bad i'm leaving and can't drive either. its okay tho, gonna spread the sfl love in ohio.
just watch that z on the wall and you'll be fine. unless you can get to moroso, which seems like its alot friendlier to beginners.

i drove there w/ 1 event under my belt literally throwing my car at the wall...i was scared shitless the first few times but its actually very hard to hit that wall unless you're being reckless...stick to the infied and low/inside on the turns if you must. Great experience, good fun, amazing people!
