    Hi guys

    I just wanted to do a post for all you event organisers on herethat post dates for venues you run drift days for etc.

    Please can you all post dates up of when you are going to run future events going forward until the end of the year. This is because we all need to work together to make the "scene" larger and stronger we all need to work together we should not be competing for the cars we should all work together and ensure that we run these on different dates. Im sure everyone agrees thats the most sensible way to make it so people dont have to choose whic to go to if they are on the same day we can all attend more.

    I look forward to seeing your dates so we as a company can work around other dates where possible.

    Thanks

    Perfect thanks mate.. We all need to work together no need for us all to be in competition with each other.
    We will try not to book the same as any of you guys :) makes better company sense :)

    There used to be a calender of events but i dont think it was used properly. Maybe its time to get a proper one setup now there is more events happening. Not running days on competiton weekends helps so the bdc etc guys can attend too.

    Just noticed there's actually a calendar tab on the forum toolbar. It'd be nice to have something like that which all the event organisers have access to and update with their events for quick reference. Maybe even include a few of the larger car meets to help people plan their dates etc...

    Well anybody can enter an event in the calender so its just a case of people using it.

    I didn't know of a calendar, i'll start using it.

    Heres the dates for lydden, Theres going to be an extra date as well i'll post it up when its confirmed though.

    http://www.driftworks.com/forum/drift-practice-days/190658-lydden-hills-2013-drift-dates.html

    We have to work around other events that they have on up there, but I agree we should all be trying to run on different dates but that's not always possible.

    I didn't know about the calender either, Straightliners have our 2014 Smeatharpe dates booked already so I will add everything into it soon once I've got them :)

    Would make it easier to see what's on at what dates if everyone adds to it.

    If the Calendar is going to become used, we will find a way to make it more obvious to people, so it's a properly useful resource. It would need maintaining though, as it would be completely shit if dates that were moved or cancelled weren't corrected in the calendar.

    Driftland will be releasing 2014 dates at once but for the rest of this year they will be adhoc to avoid other drift events and things like the BTCC when its local.
