Greg from GK Tech is organising/sponsoring that, would be ok.

Its great in terms of Drift to offer the big prize money and drift car, but mixing it with music etc only time will tell if that will work.

Personally i wouldnt go either.

I don't think you could pull off mixing a music festival with a drift show.

You'd have two seperate kind of crowds in there at once.

Yeah, dunno about the music side of things, although cross-promotion might be beneficial. Not really for me though.

only time will tell how it'll go but i think sundeep is right with the two different kind of crowds. but even seeing how the crowds interact could be worth going for!!

Only people who play Need For Speed: Most Wanted would love this event for both the music & the cars, as it'll remind them of how phat they "drifted" their Hyundai Tiburon around that tight circuit while listening to the XBOX pump out dope beatz by Snoop Dogg vs The Doors

Speed determines how fast you hit the Traffic Light....Power determines how far you take it with you.

ABS = spongy brakes, but you'll slow to about 60

non-ABS = lock up at 100 & skid past the roo doing about 95. But you'll look sick doing it :mrgreen:
