To get in on the action, signup ASAP by going to this thread! Good luck to everyone who will be competing in Round 4 of 4, “Drift Showdown 2008″ hosted by HPI Racing’s U.S. headquarters!

First of all, it’s an “HPI head honchos” (not Rodney, not Andrew, just blame it on our buddy Collin LOL j/k) do not like single car qualifying, so we CAN NOT do single car qualifying like Rounds 1-3. It’s not an option; basically we must do qualifying another way.

Second of all, Dave, Edgar, myself, and many of our drivers don’t like it either. It IS boring, it IS boring to watch, and we’re pretty much happy because we can now get rid of it. In fact, we already came up with a new system for future series and single events to where it will not be single-car qualifying anymore - BUT retaining the objective zone scoring so that qualifying will still be on the driver, and not a judge.

That said…

…we’re going to do a new way of qualifying which not only kills the boredom of watching one car at a time, AND it won’t affect the way points can be earned for this important final 2008 series round.
