There's no description and i've never seen this event, looks like its new. youtube doesnt pull up any vids. It's at willow springs balcony. Does anyone know what it is, what my car needs to be prepared for it and how it's run, setup, etc.?
S2000 have weak differentials so if it's a full day of drifting on dry pavement I'm going to pass on it. If it's wet, then I might go for it to learn some car control when the rear end kicks out.

 

I don't know what it is but it sounds like a fun event - potentially educational too. If the event was close, I'd go. There's a set of hard, cheap Sumitomos in the basement I can't sell.

The diff is happy if its spinning free.

 

A lot of drifters go. You basically drift on dry pavement (unless its raining that day)all day. Looks like a lot of fun if you're into that kind of thing. I could be wrong but its not like "training course"...you show up and get your car sideways all day

They call it the balcony not skid pad..thats part of Streets lol. Try searching balcony

Man that looks like so much fun but i can hear my differential blow up as I'm watching this video. Guess I'll stick to autocross

 

as long as you don't do clutch kick, your diff won't blow too easily... but i may be wrong..

 

just run prius tires out back

 

Or, grab your spare tire and ask a buddy if you can borrow his spare tire too... Swap out at the pad (balcony) - it shouldn't take much room in your car to bring a second spare tire.

This kind of reminds me of that episode of with Chris Harris putting 4 spare tires on a C63 AMG
