I would be interested in trying it. Especially if its noob friendly. Never drifted to that extent before. However I work on Saturdays till noon. If I got there at about 12:30 would it be too late to get involved?

damn sorry at godesshunter I've been a bit busy working 7 days a wk but now I've slowed down and back on the forum.
I'll try my best in 2013 to get CT/MA rx8 more involved in meets/drift events. im tired of being the only rx8 hanging with all my 240sx friends.
