Notes:

It's that time again, so here's a third helping of the 2007 Southern Fried season! Don't be the one who is late to the table for this third installment of ATL's favorite practice days.

TANDEM!! TANDEM!! TANDEM!!

Additionally, don't forget about our advanced tandem run group. We're the only place in Atlanta for open tandem practice! You know who you are... those guys that have been itching to get out there with Myself, Toni Shorts, MartyMartyMarty, Sammy, Andy Sapp, Erin Sanford, and the others. Bring your cage, bring your fire suit, and leave your ego at home!
Well, now's your chance. If you've got the background, and you fill out your petition, you might just get it!

http://dgtrials.com/forms/tandem_petition.doc (http://dgtrials.com/forms/tandem_petition.doc)

If you are interested in volunteering -- shagging cones, registration, tech, security -- please contact Marty (jon.martin@dgtrials.com) as he will be coordinating. We hope to see all of our faithful and dedicated volunteers out there as usual! Also, if you've volunteered in the past, please email Marty with your ideas of some fun things that DGTrials can do for you as a "thank you..."


Don't forget, Festive Garage (http://www.festivegarage.com/) sells all the gear that you need to get ready!


See you out there!!!

v-empire
08-23-2007, 09:36 PM
you will have fun. well, this will give yo the opportunity to go out there and drive the course without worries. kinda like a driving lesson.

you dont have to drift but you can get in 4-5th gear, down shift, and drive it till the end...yay! its great practice for you.

and also, since you are a participant, you can do ride alongs with the drifters... fun fun fun.

hmm, I may just have to take the plunge and do this. I was hoping to have one of my S13s going long before now for stuff like this, but I may just have to pop the S14's cherry. I'm going to want to know the course layout as well... I do not want to wreck my baby!

does anyone know which rules they strictly enforce and which ones are taking up space in rule book?....what about the windshield rule, cause i got a crack halfway across it, anyone have one for sale?

JJ Alfano
08-26-2007, 06:09 AM
i have one crack thats about a foot long, i dont think that will be a problem, do you?

Barnacles240
08-27-2007, 03:03 AM
dorimon, do u know how strict dg is about windshield, are there places that can fix cracks?....i could really use that money on other things

shawn shawn
08-27-2007, 03:31 AM
ummm best thing would be ask marty! He is the big shot.

I guess it depends on how bad the crack is cause I can see how drifting can put alot of stress on the windshield. if you have full coverage it should replace your windsheild... might be like 100-150$ though.

08-28-2007, 06:34 PM
this is inspiration to pull my engine, rebuild it, get an exhaust on, put some bushings and some springs on, and get out there and drift. ive drifted a little bit on an open diff, it doesnt last for long, but it is a ton of fun. alright guys, ill try and make it there.

DO IT! These are the perfect events to learn at. If you've never done it, register, show up and grab any one of us to ride along with you and give you some hints. Everyone is very friendly and helpful.

take out your driver side floor mat (or anything loose at all for that matter) so it doesn't get stuck in your pedals. make sure your positive battery terminal is covered. make sure your wheels are torqued properly. You seem to have everything under control. Dont be afraid to ask for an instructor to ride along your first heat. Take a depth breath before your first run and relax.
