What series should I enter?

[fsr]

I'm currently looking through my options for the 2004 season, and as drifting in Norway is still in an early stage I'm considering to compete in US as well if the budget allow it. My question is: which series are looking to be the best one to enter?

PS. My team mate might enter as well if we decide that this is right for us

[fsr]

No suggestions?

Well, there are two significant series... Formula Drift, and USDrift, and no reason you couldn't run both of them.

Formula D is 4 events, 2 out west in Cali, 1 in Texas, 1 on the east Coast in Georgia. It will have more regimented safety requirements (likely at least a rollbar, probably a cage, since it's sanctioned by SCCA Pro Racing). No word yet on fees, point structure, or prizes.

USdrift is 9 events, and just as spread out. USDrift will have other events besides the competitions, fun/practice days, schools, etc. Car needs no special equipment, just a helmet, and entry fees are likely minimal (they were last year). First place at each event wins $500, the Championship is $5000 (+ 5k contingency by Yoko). Entry in any one event qualifies you for the Las Vegas final.

Neither has released full details yet on entry fees, prizes, event structure and so on. GET CRACKING GUYS, THE SEASON STARTS SOON!!!
