I would have to agree with everyone that the Atlanta event was one of the best events I have ever been to. When I pulled up at 10 AM the place was already getting crowed and the event did not start till 3 or 4. Every driver kicked *Censored**Censored**Censored* and I was most impressed with Joon. Joon thank you for putting such a great show on and to watch Chris drive is amazing.

well whad they say at the event? did j-rod just say pat was dq'd without an explanation at all?

Yeah, all they said was he was DQ'd because of technical reasons. No other explanation. At least none I could hear (the PA system was pretty bad at times, at least where we were).


Pros:
Good crowd on Saturday (couldn't make it on Friday). Good section of track to view for spectators. Lines weren't too bad at the food vendors (though maybe I hit them at the right times). Drivers really gave a great effort and genuinely seemed to be enjoying themselves. The Pit area was kinda cool. For the most part you could get right up to the cars and drivers.


Cons:
PA system. A little hot and humid during the afternoon. seating wasn't all that great unless you remembered or knew to bring your own chairs (and coolers and food). parking was good until it was time to leave.


Observations/opinions:
The course seemed to favor (IMO) the higher-powered cars because of the uphill Horseshoe section of the course.

I pretty much agreed with the judging except in two races: I though Gushi should have won his last round, and I thought Maeng's last round (to determine 3rd place) should have never gone to the last OMT.

Forsberg was a machine out there! He ran his car extremely tight and consistantly. So did D-Mac, but I think the best car/driver won last night.


Overall, we really had a great time and will be back again next year!


Thanks to Drifting.com for the free ticket! And thanks to all the drivers for putting on a great show!

Great event, I had a awesome time. Only thing that sucked was I forgot to bring sunscreen and got a really nice sunburn but thats my fault so lol.

1 of the best events I've ever been to. I woulda liked 10 degrees cooler and 20% less humidity, but the rest was great!

I am curious to see how the whole tire situation pans out. I don't quite understand what happened, so I'm anxious to find out what happened and what this means for the rest of the season.
