Professionals were always telling me to get rid of James because he was just an amateur but when it comes to loyalty, I finish what I start. I did not know JAMES WAS A COWARD and I guess terrified of never getting in the top 30.
He claims he had too many responsibilities.. thats the story he is spinning right now... I guess going to a five star gym and working out with celebrities in the morning and picking up his girlfriend from school is way too much to ask of someone who is living f@$#%&ng RENT FREE in a house with a private cook for his every E#QW%T^Q#W$E need. OH did I forget to mention I took him in a PRIVATE JET to Jackson hole , wyoming in January so he could snowboard for a week at the four seasons hotel... all expenses paid by me for him so he could be HAPPY.... any one out there think they could tolerate that kind of torture????????
please help me out on this
That is a huge shame, I hate seeing people take advantage of a good oppurtunity.. Hire Alex he is good, but he is Hawaiiian so you have to deal with that... lol or hire me, I need a working car...
so forrest is your new driver? is he gonna drive his own car or your car? and if he drives your car does the baby blue/orange wrap stay or will he get to redesign it to sweet greeness?

If Forrest ends up being our driver, I have no problem changing the color scheme...
You should really look into contact Doug Van Den Brink that guy has ties to Falken and is the truth. Just cant afford to compete in all the events due to funds.
First post btw long time lurker finally decided to register!
I think it's funny... the second any drifter hears about money, they want in. I'm sure if you offer $3k per month and a free ride to get anywhere, and financial backing to tune a car up to their liking, you'll have 20 drivers standing in line for a shot to drive.

... man... drifters are some broke peeps!
Ruth - This just shows you that if you have money, there will be 10 people waiting to help you with your team. Some are qualified, some will just see the dollar signs. If you are taking this seriously, you should consult some of these people and ask for their opinions. I think some of the drivers mentioned in this thread are better than others for the seat in your car. But I'm sure if you ask 10 people for their opinions, you'll get 11 different opinions (because at least 1 person won't be able to make up their mind). If you want to run this team like a professional team, it might be a good idea to have an interview process for a team manager (who has experience and can help you make decisions and run your team) followed by a tryout at a track to see which drivers have the best skill. Take the top 3 skilled drivers and interview them with your team manager for personality and professionalism. Then, make a decision on a driver, draw up a contract (i'd suggest performance-based), set out a plan of attack and some attainable goals for the season (for you, the driver, and the sponsors), and take this sport on properly.
Nobody has $150k to waste away, especially chasing someone else's dream. But money brings out the worst in people, so you need to be prepared for that. Again, I apologize that this situation has come to fruition, but if you're serious about drifting and helping people out, this is a great opportunity to make things happen.
Ruth I sent you a PM last week but I dont think it was working I emailed you this morning. Im sure you have gotten a lot of proposals and applications just wanted to let you know I sent one over too
RUTHHHHH ! ! I GOT IT !!! MAKE A TV SHOW LOL :P try out for drifters lol find out who is the best for your team get 10 drivers to battle it out like MTV then pick one in the end you should get ur investment back lol
I am an drifter in Ireland and can not belive what i am reading. For one someone with no drifting experence would pay all that money. and it seem its more than a deal gone sour if ya know what i mean. think it all a wind up. as for drift-avengers i really dont think you are who you say who you are. Ireland has some of the best drifters in europe now and only a hand few get sponcered.
RUTHHHHH ! ! I GOT IT !!! MAKE A TV SHOW LOL :P try out for drifters lol find out who is the best for your team get 10 drivers to battle it out like MTV then pick one in the end you should get ur investment back lol
First and foremost I feel for your situation and can not believe this has happened. Although we have seen your team not do so well this season, it is unfortunate for a situation like this to occur.
Ruth, please contact me. i would like to speak with you about this matter as soon as possible
there should be organization in which people get in contact with ruth... like picking a number at the chinese super market and waiting to get your fish. the snakes are slithering quick these days!
