Q: Do I need a SFI racing suit? A: NO, not for the first 3 Bullring lot events, but a 2 layer SFI Race Suit is encouraged. For the final event at Formula Drift Rd 6 Las Vegas a SFI spec 3/2A-5 suit or SFI 3.2A/1 rated suit + SFI 3.3 Nomex Underwear will be required as gears/speeds increase.
Q: Will there be on-site tire changing? A: Yes
Q: I do not have a cage will i be able to participate? A: Yes – you will be able to practice in a “Non-Caged” Practice Run Group (no tandem) and have the opportunity to earn points from Qualifying, but you will not be able to move forward in the competition to the “Top 8″ or “Top 16″ You will have to pass a normal “Vegasdrift Practice Event Tech inspection” the tech sheet can be found Here
Q: Will I be able to participate in Tandem with a bolt in cage? A: Yes – however if you earn your license or are awarded an invitation to ProAm Nationals your car has to meet all of the tech requirements in the Formula Drift ProAm
Q: How many “racing/bucket” seats are required for Tandem? A: You will only need one “Bucket” Seat and one certified harness
Q: Do i need a full fire suppression system? A: We require one 2lbs extinguisher mounted securely with a quick release, within an arms distance, while the driver is seated. Once again if you move on to Nationals your car must be fully compliant with the Formula Drift ProAm Rulebook.
Q: Does my Battery need to be relocated to the Trunk, or inside the car? A: No. But for tandem we do require a cut off switch that will shut the car down.
Q: Can I pick my own number? A: No, we will not be taking number requests. Participants will receive 1 free set of door plates. Additional Door plates will be $10.00 a set.
