Default Photos from our drift event "Land of the Great" @GMP 11/28

For those of you that don't know, I work for Southeast Drift, we are an organization that hosts grassroots drifiting events and competitions.
We recently had our first event at our new competition venue, Gresham Motorsports Park

Between 11 and 20 in the video is that a crossfire or a mustang?

its a mustang.
You honestly would never see a crossfire doing a banked course. car is too short to be stable on transitions (trust me i know)
and putting a full 12 point cage in a crossfire looks to be impossible

yea, it used to be peach state raceway. The Elliott's have put right around 7 million into this place and it shows.
We've managed to have them extend and pave the pits as well as the entrances to the track.
Next year is going to be HUGE
