That is Adams Motorsports Park, Used to be just Adams Go-kart track, been around for decades Literally, but slowed with the economy, so under the new management they expanded their Customer Base to include drifting n grip motocross etc etc.. Its located near the Santa Ana River(whats left of it) in Riverside, Exit Market street from the 60 Frwy head North, first light after the bridge make a left. Hope that helps

adams is fun. Trying to get my hot rod working better. Its cheeper on tires then the lexy.Comment

I put the hot rod on the side while the lexy was being built but now that the lexy is done, I brought the car down to the shop and fixed it back up again. New front brakes, new hydro ebrake, rebuilt the trans, rebuilt the rear end with a new kaaz diff cause the old one exploded. Ran the ken block gymkhana invitational with it this weekend and got fastest time of the day plus an invite for the main event in dec 3, 4th at irwindale but not sure if the locost will be legal because they want production based vehicles. Anyway, here are some vids.

Depends on how "production based" will be defined. If they mean literal (you can buy this car off the showroom right now, as it's run), then Ken Block's car isn't legal, either. If they mean, you could (or could have) bought this car, but not necessarily as it's run, then his car and your Locost could be legal considering your car is based on the Lotus 7. If they mean like like NASCAR, you're better off bringing the Lexus and Block's car is also legal.Originally posted by AlexPfeiffer View Post

Did some testing in the Tanaka Vette at irwindale but pushed the car too hard and broke the clutch. At least it was durring testing and I wont be clutch kicking so hard come FD.
Also had to make some changes to Battle Version. Redid the web site but its still not exactly right. Dropped alot of the prices so I think you guys will be happy with being able to get high quality parts at the new rate.Comment

Hello my good sir,
I'd like to know if you've got a favorite game to do with drifting. As I've got a foot in that industry, a pro's feedback would be tight.Comment

Been thinking about building a few cars laitly.
I have another chassis sitting in the garage for a lotus 7 replica like the hot rod. Want to build a sr20det version with double the power of my current car and independent rear.
Was thinking of building another sc300 as a street car.
Then there's the car id really like to build but have no budget for. An Ultima GTR with LS motor, twin turbo, about 1000hp on pump gas and street legal.
For now i'm just worried about getting lexy running again. The oil pump broke and threw some parts around the motor. Put a hole in the block so its going back to Speed O Motive. Lexy also needs some body work done.Comment

So in my quest to learn to drift. I also want to learn how suspension effects perormance. Now my car is already moded with kyb agx adjustable shox and tanabe GF 210 springs. Its a little lower and is stiff. Im going to switch the springs out for some rsr racing springs in the near fufture. Ive heard these are better. Anyway at some point I want to switch to a good set of coilovers that are in my bugdet. I want to learn how to adjust ride hight and see what camber is really good for. I cant do that with my current set up obviously. Ive heard of a few brands and have checked them out. All in the same price range. Ksports control pro wich ive heard not so great things about. Powered by max for an extra $100. Ive heard these are real popular amoung the s chassis kids. Finaly the Bc racings Br. This is for track and street use. What ever experience you all have with these set ups and would like to share with me would be awesome.Last edited by Linguo415; 01-28-2011, 02:13 AM.Comment

everyone likes different coil overs for thier car. Its kinda hard to know what you want without trying them but they are expecive so that usually not an option. People on the forums will always tell you the brand they use is best since they are ether selling them to you or have bought them. So of coarse since they have it on thier car, its got to be the best.
AGX's and lower springs is good, just you cant change the height like with coil overs.Comment

Have some bad news unfortunatly. Went to az and ran at firebird for the drag and drift event. At the end of the night durring one of the runs i heard something go bang. Pulled it off the track and found a hole in the block.
Took the motor out of the car and pulled it apart. For some reason the oil pump decided to explode and it threw some parts around the bottom half. One ended up putting a hole in the block but the bad part was that it also damaged a piston and a rod.
Luckly my friends at Speed O Motive made a few calls and found us a block from SP Engineering. Currently waiting for CP to make a new piston and a rod from Brian Crower. Already picked up a new oil pump and some parts to get the motor back together from Cabe Toyota.
Many of you know i've been driving the Tanaka Racing Corvette in Formula D. Unfortunatly this year they where unable to get the sponsorships needed to run this season. I did however just sign with Megan Racing to build and drive thier 350z so im looking forward to that, just not much time to get things done before the season starts in april 8,9th in long beach.Comment
