I don't think the 28th is a skidpad. I believe it's a comp on the actual course. Don't worry about messing up or anything, just have fun.
hmm i thought it was a skidpad event...o well, whenever the next one rolls in..i'll be there.

yea its an actual event. but on another note. arent you the one who made a thread..."this is why i dont drift" with a buch of 240s that have been mangled up from other things than drifting? lol just wondering
and 4 spare tires for the rear is plenty and make sure you have nice new grippy tires up front for less understeer!

Nope.
Also, once you do a little bit of real good high speed drifting (PBIR road course, Homestead, etc.) you will see the exhiliration of throwing a car sideways.

of course it all depends on how much tread your 'used tires' have, the amount of dry rot, the quality of the tire from factory, and how much actual on throttle drifting you do.
new people tend to use less tires because they are spinning out or understeering and the rear wheels arent even spinning.
have fun, and say good bye to your other motorsports cuz you'll be hooked.

def true it all depends on your driving style and the type of tire I use super high treadware tires like 500+ so i dont use much tires but i also dont throw alot of smoke with them either. It also depends on the brand if your using shitty tires they will chunk out or delaminate quick. Since your new to it you probobly wont be very aggressive with the throttle so your not gonna eat that much tire. If you are aggressive with the throttle your first time out get ready for some wall love LMAO
They will never let us drift that kart track again we fucked up their grass too bad cause it was super fun but super slick.
