Here's the plan, tryin to get some people together from m.net and here to meet up and go watch some drifting. Or if you're eligible, you can enter the competition and represent for the Roadsters. You can find more info on that at the US Drift website.

This is Round 1 of the US Drift Nationals competition, not a practice session or demo day. (Actually, on June 3 there is a Demo day, if you're local and want to check that out just PM me)

It would be a bit of a drive for me from Newport News but I'm game. Where do you want to meet. I'll see if anyone from my team would like to come... (I'm the only Roadster but the more the merrier!)

Also why dont' you post this on Autocross.us its a Virginia motorsports board...

Wish i could make a return to the US Drift, i will be soon! Wonder if i can crack it a 2nd time

DRFT MX5 · May 24, 2006

Sorry I honestly didn't read it that well, I was at work at the time and just skimming!

I'll put it on my calendar, and keep in touch.

It is a way from Newport News... I'd guess about 3 hours to get to Manassas, but if we can get a big enough gathering, it would be cool.

I've been flaking out of the DC area meets, but I'm definately going to this.

Not a bad sized crowd, I imagine stuff may come up for some, but I will send out PM's to everyone tonight or tomorrow to make sure they dont forget, and get a better feel for who will make it and who wont.

I invited a few of my non-miata owning friends too so drag your friends out here with you

actually, freedomgli, I think you mentioned you were going to try and make it too?

freedomgli · Jun 7, 2006

I'm going to try to make it. A member in my club wanted me to go to a Bowie Baysox baseball game that day so that we could check out the parking lot and plan a course design for our July 1 autocross there. But I also told y8s that I'd caravan with him from DC to ODS so I've got to decide which plans are more important.

I had a lot of fun meeting you guys. It was cool to talk all about Roadsters and check out the drift action. I'm stoked that people came from far and wide to represent. Chris, I might just have to take you up on your offer to caravan down to MATG. I need to get bustin' if my car is ever going to be ready in time. Maybe I'll see you at the next TSCC auto-x. As for the rest of y'all, I'll see you on the streets!
