Media personnel will be required to buy a pit pass and get approval from dan@maperformance.com prior to Saturday
Elko's tire changing building will be open and accessible for drivers to use
We want to (tentatively) set the cap at 20 drivers so everyone gets plenty of track time.
Contact dan@maperformance.com if you want to get on the driver list!
This will be our first drift event of the year and will be used to better gauge drivers presence here in MN as well as skill levels for future competitions / invite only events (inquire with Dan@maperformance.com).
