whats up guys, so i just started asking some people to get to go to BHC and this is why im putting up this thread right now.
Im trying to get in contact with the owner or whoever it is to ask him what do i need to get a group of people to go to this track and have a little fun.

This is the thing, im pretty sure that we can make it happen if we get a group of about 15+, i think that the cost will be around $50 - $60 per driver.
For those of u that dont know what im talking about here it goes:
BHC is a small kart track located in Barnesville, Ga which is about 1 hr+ from atlanta; its a great track for first timers so HEADS UP!! cuz i know there are some here that want to start practicing and get some tires burning...
I want to at least know who would be interested + would be willing to go? this is because when i talk to the guy or something i can at least show that we are serious and we have a group ready...
I can get more details as soon as you guys show some interest.
Thanks
GOD BLESS

That track will tear your car up. Its VERY small...

New drivers would be better off learning on something bigger.

But.. If we have a car running, I think it sounds like a good idea. :)

its not all that bad if you stay off the oval and dont go retard apeshit down the back stretch. ;)



then again the oval is the best part.

any sunday and im down.

20 drivers..
its going to be pretty damn crowded, heh.

juanito
07-02-2007, 05:26 AM
to be honest he said even more, but i thought about it too so because im in charge of this i decide how many, cuz im cool like that!
oh, and i think is gonna be a saturday, u need to take that day off

down_shift
07-02-2007, 06:05 AM
20 drivers would be a lot when you consider the space in which you can pit is very limited. There is going to be an event at AMS on the 8/11 so make sure you pick another weekend.

shawn shawn
07-02-2007, 02:14 PM
20 people will be crowded but its been done before and it worked out fine.

Zane98S14
07-02-2007, 02:43 PM
i remember that the back section of this place was tight in karts...so doin it in the car is gonna be interesting. I wanna see how some of you guys take that back ess before it dumps back into the banked oval. The entry to that ess has kind of a weird curvature if i remember correctly. Glad i bought a beater car so if it hits something...not as big a deal.

hellfire
07-02-2007, 04:57 PM
CARLOVA: u can drive as long as u have a parent singing for u


Do they have to sing a specific song, or just whatever comes to mind? :toung:

yeah is not gonna be that bad cus the first time i went there was about 30+ drivers and it wasnt that bad... plus i dont know what these people is talking about this track being small and stuff, my first drift event was there and i learned a lot, and like DORIMON said: the oval is the best thing!!!!!
Me and Dorimon know this is a fun track:goodjob:

babowc
07-06-2007, 04:32 AM
afaik, you just need a 3pt or more harness (seatbelt), helmet, battery tie-down and checks for oil leaks.

RVCA240
07-06-2007, 06:15 AM

Casey
07-06-2007, 08:09 AM

count me in for sure

*things to do*
fix rear camber, fix front camber
adjust rear preload
rotate tires
weld diff

should be easy enough.
i cant do a 5 speed conversion by then so auto it is...
yes, im bringging my spare transmission
haha

juanito
07-06-2007, 03:22 PM
ok guys, as i said before the date is on us, so please lets start thinking about a date during august its either: 18th, 25th, or we can wait until sept 8th

also, i see that there is more than 20 people willing to go, so that means that if u really wanna go u have to register as soon as i get registration open, u dig? i think maybe the registration can go up to 25 drivers, but it all depends on us...
as for now, lets just think about one of these saturday that would fit the best...

juanito
07-10-2007, 03:59 PM
I talked to the owner 2day about safety and stuff and this was his answer:
Yes there will be a teck inspection to make sure cars dont leak
anything and that they are safe to drive on the track. You have to
have all of your lugnuts and have working seat belts. If you have any
questions then feel free to call me.

As u can see its just basic stuff, so no problemo peoples! ha!

~The_Duke~
07-10-2007, 05:37 PM
I assume we are going to need a helmet or will there be one provided?

yeah you probably want some open lot experience before attempting bhc. You want to know what to expect from your car while drifting before taking it on a real track. Id suggest hitting up some parking lot events if you wanna learn fast, then take it to tracks to get good.

Beez_S13
07-31-2007, 08:26 PM

08-08-2007, 04:42 PM

Rbsil80
08-08-2007, 05:03 PM
yeah is this still going to happen?

juanito
08-08-2007, 09:45 PM
actually i was in peru, but yeah, sorry guys, umm the owner is willing to let us use the track but sadly someone else has to be in charge of this "event" since my car is has broken suspension and a really bad leak + i start school + i need to pay books + many things came up for me, so DORIMON (shawn) knows the guy and he has his info.
Im really sorry guys, and if someone is willing to be in charge pm me so i can give u the owners email and phone number.
again, sorry!

~The_Duke~
08-08-2007, 09:53 PM

ur car only has 110k miles tho

Mileage has nothing to do with it. Theres multiple things that could have led up to it. It never got hot so I hope I stopped quick enough so nothing else bad happened to the motor itself. I just gotta replace it and move on haha.
