Just got off the phone with Caleb.
*NOPI Events are $175
*At least 30 drivers are registered
*There is a licensing event at VIR Feb. 17th
*The qualifier in TX as you already know
*A qualifier before the 1st event in Arizona
*The drift box is a go, they have 8 on hand
*The rule book should be out next week
*A driver/team that brings in a sponsor gets %15 of the sponsors commitment
*Caleb loves AndySapp
CODY GET YOUR DAMN LICENSE!!!!
Love,

*At least 30 drivers are registered - for the FOERST event?
*The drift box is a go, they have 8 on hand - what's a drift box?
*A driver/team that brings in a sponsor gets %15 of the sponsors commitment - as in someone to sponsor NOPI?

the drit box is this cool little device they'll be using to help with judging...

it uses GPS and some other stuff to calculate speed, angle, and stuff like that to help score you. seems pretty neat.

Yes 30 drivers has expressed interest in competing in the season.
The drift box is a GPS device used in helping the judges

Say Toyo sponsors you. You tell Toyo, hey you should sponsor the NOPI series. However much money Toyo gives NOPI, you get %15 percent of that. $6000 sponsorship to NOPI, you get $900
