Here it is everyone!!
After a awesome day at Rockford Speedway us at Driftchitown would like to say thank you! Thank you fans, drivers and crew, car show peeps, motorcycle peeps, the media, the staff, and thank you to Dave for inviting us to your track to host an event!
As everyone knows it was a last second event that came up due to a cancelled event at the speedway. We got with Dave and was given the opportunity to fill it! We know it was a busy weekend with a lot of other events going on, along with it being Labor Day weekend, but our goal as always was to give people a place to go drive and fans to see drifting! Our main goal is and will always be to put a smile on someone's face and to grow the sport. The more drift events everyone has just means we can keep growing the sport and get the next generation involved and wanting to drift!
We had some awesome media by Jake Alita and Djordjo Vidovic -bycloudnine/aerialvideo. Be on the look out for media to come!
Also would like to thank Brancato Snow & Ice Management , Paintball Explosion, X-Treme Graphics & Lettering Inc., and last but not least TireStacks.com. With out all the help from these guys we could not do what we do!
We had a great field of cars we ran the main bracket and added a "losers" bracket. After a lot of great battles the winner of the main bracket was the big red Z out of Iowa Ethan Hodges !! The winner of our "losers" bracket was the man in the Miata who has NEVER competed before and has never even ran a tandem!! He drove his car to the track and had spare tires in the passenger seat !! His name is Fer Ibarra !!
Congrats to both of our winners taking home some CASH MONEY from our Chicago style hat draw event!
See everyone next time!
