R.I.P.

Central Florida Racing Complex has been a tremendous venue with a huge investment in Florida's drifting culture. Over the 4+ years in operation, CFRC had expanded multiple times to give us a better "home" than ever before. Sadly, all good things can't last and due to the government shutting down the drag strip portion, the facility was slowly dying. In late 2013, CFRC announced they would not be open in 2014. The final event was to be held a few days before New Year's Eve and I was DETERMINED to drive it.

At the same time, I was in desperate need of a new helmet, and inspired by Chris Forsberg, I bought a helmet mount for my GoPro. Here is a quick video we put together of some of the runs we got in on our most beloved track, giving her a good send off.



Here is OMGDrifts video of the end of CFRC:




Observe a moment of silence for our fallen venue as you check out some snap shots:

Still, not all is lost. Orlando Speedworld has reopened its doors to drifting and the CFRC owner Donnie, who has been 99% of the reason CFRC was as awesome as it was, is taking over as track manager for OSW. He is bringing the drift program there and is ALREADY planning new paved sections to improve this O.G. drifting venue.

We will be at the first event here in January. See you then!
