That is a Sweet buckle! Where can I get one?

[Mike Peters]

Next time you're in Tejas hit up Cavender's Boot City. They have all kinds of rad redneck apparel. I don't know if they have that particular one, but I've got a decent collection of PRCA caliber redneckery from there.

Again, Norcal is without an event, but we have two socal events. Stupid.

.... and the 2 Socal events were the 2 highest attended events of the season (including the highest attended drifting event ever in the US) @ Long Beach.

FD outgrew the location they were using at Infineon, and haven't found a suitable replacement. I know everyone wants to have an event in their back yard, but let's be serious, Socal isn't that far of a drive. Suck it up.

The Texans who are belly-aching don't have a single event within a day's drive.

No its not that far a drive. But its still a drive that requires staying over a night and a near 200 dollar gas bill. If i could attend then i would.
There are plenty of other suitable Norcal locations other than infineon. It would have been nice since they skipped last year to find a replacment. Thats all.

wow. How inconvenient. poor you.

FD is always open to suggestions of new venues. But what you might consider to be 'suitable' might actually not match up with some of the logistical needs of FD. But throw the venues out there. Some details they've put out there before:

- seating for 6k to 8k fans (or more) to view the fastest parts of the track
- convenient parking to support that fan base
- paddock space to support 40+ teams and 20-30 vendors
- track setup of 2 to 4 turns with entry speeds above 80 mph, preferably without a major e-brake initiation
- existing or easy access to k-rail / fencing / etc to outline the course
