Drift 2nrs

DWO is holding off the events for just a little bit. Now I said a LITTLE...this is not Wallerfield! And plz don't PM me about why, and how, and if.

Reason being is the members themselves are going through what every other tuner goes thru (car repairs, rent, work, etc), coupled with trying to source parts like LSD's, suspension and so on, PLUS paying and handling the events out of the group's own pockets. Remember DWO is still in it's infancy and the monies we acquire is put into developing the next event and trying to maximize the experience for everybody.

Yes everyone needs to practice to get better, but tyres aren't free. The ARC compound isn't free. Even though we are getting sponsors we cannot present an event with just 2 cars, the sponsors would lose interest.
Right now the DWO is just trying their best to bring forth an event that is worthy of the hype.

Please have some patience, we're trying to cover all the bases.

Tsuchiya, can you post what the car requirements are? since you said last time cars were not "race ready"

For DWO events do you have specific requirements? e.g Roll cage?

when i say "drift-ready" i meant that the member's cars were not able to participate becuz one car had a blown wastegate; another got a blown headgasket the day before; the rotary had blown seals, etc.

Roll cages aren't mandated until we have set up proper tandem drift competitions i believe. The only thing really required is a RWD car, manual tranny, and an LSD; if u really want to drift properly.
