Do more with less
The New Year is only a stone throw away. For all of us, 2009 will represent an undeniable challenge. But these harder times are also a great way to remind us how together, with hard work and “lots of support from each other”, we can make great success and more importantly, insure a prosper future.
Although the final schedule of the 2009 Castrol DMCC professional drifting championship remains “flexible”, pending some final details, such as a strong possible deal with the Toronto Indy Grand Prix, this year drivers, sponsors and fans can count on the following:
Drift Mania will hold two separate Canadian professional drifting championships. DMCC East and DMCC West. Points will remain independent to each divisions, in order to keep traveling and ultimately the costs as low as possible.
On the West Coast, 4 events are set in stone. The first and last of the season will be held at Castrol Raceway in Edmonton (Alberta). In between those rounds, two more races will take place, one in Calgary and one on Vancouver Island. The DMCC West Coast team will be led by Colin Reeves and backed by the DMCC East Coast crew, namely DMCC’s operation director, Kendrick Fong and Chief Steward, Seth Patterson. The main objective is to bring the West coast organizers, sponsors, drivers and fans up to speed with the East Coast. A two year time frame is planned to accomplish this goal.
On the East Coast, things are about to heat up like never before. Even though the word in order for 2009 is to do more with less, East Coast drivers and fans have shown incredible energy and devotion to the sports and despite the economy, DMCC wants to give more.
For starters, DMCC went out of their way to find new tracks, offering a new and larger public then ever, a different driving environment and overall feel. DMCC East will now visit two different tracks in the Québec City region. Montmagny Raceway will host round 1, while Riverside Speeday (namely St-Croix Autodrome), who under it’s new management has committed in redesigning a part of the track to make it a hi-speed drift friendly track, will host a later round. Two visits are also schedule at DMCC’s home track, St-Eustache Autodrome. Of course, Toronto is still part of the calendar where ongoing discussion with the Toronto Indy Grand Prix are looking promising. DMCC is hopping to offer it’s drivers and sponsors a chance to expose the sport of drifting in the heart of the city of Toronto in front of 150,000 spectators. This round would be held on 3 days, from Friday to Sunday on the second week of July.
Tentative Schedule
West Division: RD1 May 31 - Castrol Raceway RD2 June 20 - Western Speedway, Victoria RD3 TBD - Calgary RD4 Sept 6 - Castrol Raceway
East Division: RD1 June 13/14 - Montmagny RD2 June 27/28 - St Eustache RD3 July 25/26 - St Croix RD4 Aug 15/16 - Downsview RD5 Sept 6/7 - St Eustache
