As long as it's not in the real racing area

they run real autox events at Mineral Wells, gymkana is something completely different from autox

I used to drift at the Mineral Wells events as well. Used to have an event nearly once a month. Haven't been out in a long time though.

Mineral Wells isn't that far from Dallas, just come on out. I think it's only $5 to watch and $50 to participate in the event.

keiichi took that jic rx8 out. Thing is ridiculous...has a 13B-REW in it, like 500whp.

Mad mike's new rx8 setup is the sickest one out. I think his FD was rad, but his newest setup is so awesome.

I'm almost done with my drift build (I just posted up an update in here). I can't wait to take it out this season....
