BAH!

BTW Patrick and I have participated in track days on this track and while we have not "drifted" it we liberally used the go pedal especially during periods of light rain. It is a fantastic experience to be on a REAL track!

i think it could. its rated to 3500lbs if i remember correctly. i have never trailered anything and i would rather not be on the downside of it before even starting out.

The Colorado tows about 4000lbs so it's 500 more than the X5.
I think the X-Fizzle can do it as long as you tow smartly...

and if the wife allows.

I did the "Phill Wicks" driving school on this track and it was totally AWSOME!!!! And I did use the throttle to "turn" some of the corners that we (me I hope) will be drifting.

will there be a tire changer there, or will you need to bring spare rims with tires already mounted.

will there be any loaner helmates there? i have one but dont think it passes their requirements...

no tire changer on site. there is one close by though. we just need to call and make sure someone is going to be there sunday. i'll do that next week. i have an extra helmet but it's a medium and it's open face.

this is the helmate i have tell me if you think it would pass, i know travis from drift star syndicate uses the same one, and it passed for me to wear it at the drift event in st.louis while they were licensing people...its a dot approved zephyr style made by bell.

sounds like a bike helmet.

skylinesx · Post by **skylinesx** » Thu May 15, 2008 1:03 am

it is i believe, but its not a dirt bike helmet

P.Haire · Post by **P.Haire** » Thu May 15, 2008 1:12 am

just bring it and we'll sort it out at the track.

skylinesx · Post by **skylinesx** » Thu May 15, 2008 1:21 am

alright, well i'll squeeze my head into a medium need be, i just want to drift...never been on an actual course before and would really like to do this...main problem is i'm a little tight on money right now with just now moving down here to nashville and having trouble finding a job or i'd just go buy a sa approved helmet.
