Good to hear. If I'm allowed to do it is there a fee you need to pay? I gotta find some spare tires/rims now.

Its 75 bucks and some change. quoted from the man him self. " To register to drift at the event paypal 75$ plus 3% to erinshill at gmail.com along with your name and contact info, and the event date you are registering for. That is all you need to do. Then just make sure you have a helmet and you are ready to have fun! Look forward to seeing your truck sliding around out there!"

Hope this helps. It would be sweet to have another fellow XRU member sliding out there:top:

Hmmm....maybe. If I can crash at someones house rather than a hotel then I think I can participate. I also do not own a helmet. :thumbdown:

Grumpy mentioned that there should be enough helments between most of the members doing the drags on friday. Should be able to borrow one.

Let me get a picture of your 4-Runner or a link to one, i'll ask if its possible for a 4runner to do this:top: Preferably one that shows the ride height...

shit....that MIGHT be pushing it, i thought you where lowered...:ahhhhh:... What i'm worried about, while she may feel fine drifting in one direction, i don't know about transitions...she might get a little tippy, all that mass swinging back...IDK, i have never driven one, but just looking at it, they might not be too keen on that...

I have gotten my truck up on three wheels, according to some spectators at the gymkhana...i can only imagine what your MIGHT do...

regardless, i asked for you. Will post results.

This just makes the TexFest that much more special. I remember texting Grumpy, early one morning while I was at Panera Bread, saying that it would be awesome if you could come and drift in the event. That he should try to persuade you. My how the snowball has grown...:top:
