Hey any of the other SF Bay area guys or gals going to the races? Could be a fun event? Wish I could go, I was hoping for tickets from Fed Ex. If youare going take lots of pictures.

Isn't that drifting a trip? They demo'd it at this years Long Beach Grand Prix and it was really fun to watch.

They didn't really drift in tandem, it was kinda open class. You had up to 4 cars drifting into a corner, one right after another, then some hoping on the accel and blowing by the others. Its was pure demonstration, and the best crowd reaction of three events I saw.
