Desoto is an awesome track, I don’t know what boxmod and anyone else were talking about “rally course”… theres one or two potholes in the middle… and I doubt anyone who said the track is too rough is any close to how low the two hottest FC's in FL. Dan Chilton and J lowe…you guys fucking rocked the shit outa that track…J lowe especially (props are given where they are due.)
Price/Location
I paid $30 to drift 10-5. I am used to paying 100-250 per event. $30 was def a plus. The track was 1.5 hours from my house(hotel room) driving under the speed limit because of the trailer. This was also a huge plus because I am used to driving 4-9 hours to Drift days…and spending another 100 on a hotel room because u obviously can’t do it all in one day.
People/Interactions
Before I left I found a couple of local to me drifters that I caravanned with. Jaime and Marco, two legit guys, Jaime especially with his little wall escapade. They introduced me to a lot of people which maid me feel really welcome. Green machine, I forgot your real name, legit ass dude, you and your whole whiskey and rye crew. Braille battery dude with the need for speed underground lookin ass 350z was legit as well, Blake I believe his name was. I had plenty of people talking to me, but at the same time, a lot of shit talkers. I expect people to talk shit but jesus. It was awesome listening to people talk shit about other drivers, then go out and suck even worse.
Driving/Organization
Ok….this fucking SUCKED. I justified the lack of driving by the lack of entry fee. $30 bux. I ran twice. I sat in line for 2 full hours before I ran my first run. Granted the run lasted 2 or 3 minutes, that is the WORST idea you could possibly think of. My second run, I sat in line for an hour and a half, and then cut the little black Miata whose owner wasn’t paying attention and had left 3 or 4 spaces open ahead of him. This track is huge. It has an infield with its own oval…and an outside oval. Why weren’t there multiple cars on the track at the same time? Intermediate line, and Advanced line. Wanna hit the bank, get in tha advanced line. Wanna slide the infield, get in the Intermediate line.
Dude with the 1UZ S13, from what you explained to me, you organized this event so this is directed to you. Don’t charge people an entry fee to drive a track, then feel you have the right to tell them they can drive or not because YOU haven’t seen their driving. I don’t need YOU to judge my driving. If I feel like wrecking my car, leave me to my own accord…get off your high horse. I signed a waiver, relieving you of all liability…so with all due respect…shut tha fuck up.
Overall Experience
Overall, this event was fun. I def met some really dope people, this scene is waaaaaaaaay different then Chicago’s, but its something I’ll get used to I guess. I brought 8 wheels/tires to roast. And I roasted one pair….I guess I have more for Miami GP? In the end, thank you all for your hospitality, I think this relationships gonna work out fine lol.
