For those who dont know... this is my corolla

[bassmangrammy]

that looks like a high damage sport

[.RJ]

Interesting. Was this an event run by anyone or a "meat up and jackass in a parking lot" deal?

Just curious because I see way too many cars in the weeds. Oh well, looks like fun

[Mike]

darwin! looks fun, i'd do it if i had no cares

[BLINGMW]

hehe, and the BMW (which looks like it belongs in a mad max movie) lives to tow all the rice out of the ditch :lol:

[BLAIR]

and for the high risk.. yea.. thats why you dont see me drifting mine.. area was kinda dangerous, but as you can see these guys dont care at all.. they actually think its fun and cool when they wreck

i care about my car alittle more than they do..

when it comes to drifing i have small balls. ( only had rwd for a month now) and when i see guy launching into ditches those small balls turn into a vagina. but give me a big ass lot with no curbs and cars and im game haha

[white_2kgt]

So what you're saying is this was an unsanctioned, illegal event, spectacular.

[ScottyB]

illegal or not, looks like it was a fun time. im glad you kept your car out of trouble, i'd hate to see it get smacked.

i want rwd so bad

[BLAIR]

not a sanctioned event at all... it was pretty much like a group of freinds.. about 10 of us from all around va. meeting up and hanging out and drifting. but it was damn good times.. those guys are NUTS

[bassmangrammy]

yeah...who won? last man standing

[CaptainHenreh]

Drifting: Jackassery at it's finest.

[Myuki]

ditches = fun??? weird.....

illegal or not, looks like it was a fun time.

For a club that is so concerned about it's image, and being taken seriously, I don't think these are the right kinds of attitudes to have about an event such as this. Illegal + Unsanctioned = BAD.

drifting the art of burning rubber.

just because some of the members think it looked like a good time, doesn't mean it has to do anything with the club. He shared some pics. And if anything, I applaud them for doing it in a fairly safe location and keeping it off the streets. They made it a risk to only those involved, and any damage done was only to their cars. Maybe a drainage ditch and a few weeds were disturbed. Can't ask for much more than that. If they wanted to personally take on the risk of the cops coming down on them instead of making it a legal and more costly event, that's their decision. It looks like fun to me too.

Ok so individual members can participate in illegal events, post about it on our forum and then get support and or cheers from us, but individual members can't go around and be a jackass in a legal fashion or have a party with a theme that might reflect poorly on the club. I'm confused, maybe there's a grey area I'm not seeing here.

Also by your logic I guess a street race at 3am on a deserted road is ok too? I'm not trying to pick a fight with ya Chan, I'm just pointing out past history and trying to figure out why one thing is ok and another isn't in the eyes of members.

[Evan]

Chan do you remember very early in the life of the club when we recognized that the actions of our members in any vehicle, at any time would reflect directly on the club. We even talked about disciplinary action against members who got excessive speeding tickets, or were seen jackassing around campus in their cars.

edit: this is a response to chan's post, not response to this particular event

[Dragon]

I do realize that Yellow didn't actually drive in the event since he said so earlier in this post, but his support of it, and subsequent posting of pictures in the MM forum links MM to it (based on historical opinions). Additional posts by members on the forum showing support or elation about the event itself further complicates the issue.

As I said I'm not trying to pick a fight here, just pointing something out.
