Evergreen Speedway is the oldest track on the circuit and was originally built as a horse-racing track. Located in Monroe, WA, Evergreen Speedway, is only a short distance from Seattle.

The Northwest fans are some of the most die-hard drift fans in the nation. The energy and excitement is often compared to that of Irwindale and the original “House of Drift.” The event’s headline moniker, “Breaking Point,” lives up to it’s name with many cars have been casualties to the track’s banking and tight transitions through the course. Last year’s event was historic as it was Formula DRIFT’s first rain event in history and the action did not fail to disappoint.

Hey guys, I'm in need of a replacement show car to be displayed at the Exedy booth during the Formula Drift event. I was going to display my FD3S RX-7, but as of yet have not been able to get my new front bumper painted and the car prepped for this event. So if any of you guys have a well modded 8 that looks clean PM me and I will give the contact info to the Exedy Rep. Who knows you may get some nice sponsorship out of the deal. Your entry into the event will be provided, but gas and hotel are on you FYI. Also you will need to be there Thursday afternoon and have the car there till Saturday evening late.

Adam

Not many show 8s around here. Mike is the most 'show' seeing he is full Mazdaspeed.

I nominate Mike's car as well. Maybe he could get some free exedy stuff? Carbon clutch?

I can help detail if anyone decides to do this. What about that Pirate RX-8?

So Formula D is tomorrow!!! I know a few of you guys are going to the track, but if you not and you want to see Professional Drifters from around the world then you need to come out tomorrow. Ask Mike Formula D is the real deal plus we can see Mikes car at the exedy booth.

My wife and I and my bro and his gf plan on rolling out of Seattle tomorrow around 9:30-10ish and if anyone would like to meet up for breakfast and role out let me know.
