CellBlock D
by erik on Dec.13, 2008, under Events
Wow, 2 full years of running drifting events. It has gone by fast. I am proud to announce our anniversary event. We started CellBlock D on a rainy cold day, yet, it has proven to be a great place to have fun and learn something new on a track. We hope that it is dry and not frozen cold, but that is not in my power to predict. So let’s make the best of it. Come drift and support our organization that takes drifting and brings it to the greater Vancouver area. See you guys there. Get ready to burn your tires on Sunday Dec 14th, 2008, from 10 – 4pm.
This is a Rain or Shine event, hopefully it is dry, as there is more smoke.
Driver fee is $55.00, Pit Passes are $10.00, Spectating is $5.00.
Drivers must be at tech by 8:15am, and the drivers meeting at 9:30am, otherwise they do not drive. No More Exceptions. Preregistration and a deposit are required, payment can be made via the PayPal link on completing the registration. We will not accept any drivers at the door, and registration closes 1 week before the event. The deposit is $30.00, and is not refundable for any reason. We have had too many problems with the way it had worked before. If you can not paypal the fee, please contact me to arrange payment. The remainder of the fee will be paid at the door. Your driver fee will include 1 pit pass.
With this event we are having vendors and sponsor booths available in the pits. If you are wanting to setup a booth, contact us for details. Spread the word.
CellBlock D is 100% based on the help of others. If you can help out at the track, whether it is flagging or crowd control, be at the track for the tech time. We will assign a place for you to help. Thanks.
