this is open to anyone that wants to participate.



Hey guys / gals,

There is a HUGE event going on in a couple of months that i want to make EVERYONE aware of. DEZOD is a GREAT company that has TONS of products for various makes and models of cars, including HONDA. They are inviting you, the car enthusiast to participate in a 1.1 mile road course event. This will be open to all makes and models, but is being STRONGLY promoted towards scion, and honda owners alike. I myself will more than likely be driving there with my SI from Florida, and hope to see many of you there that live close, or a far. Im making this thread to gather insight, questions, comments or concerns. ALL DETAILS BELOW, AND THERE WEBSITE.

Dezod Desert Showdown


Quote:
2008 Dezod Desert Showdown

Hello all,


Dezod and Dezod West would like to present our first National car show. Dezod Desert Showdown is the show where you can race your car on the 1.1 mile road course, enter it in a massive car show, or do both! Paul and I will also be tuning a few cars at the event.

DATE: May 31st, 2008


LOCATION: Firebird International Raceeway

Dezod is BIG into Honda and Scion, in addition to many other vehicles. I think this would make for some great competition. The race is open to ALL CARS, providing they pass inspection. We would be breaking down the racing into different groups. The track is Firebird West. It is a 1.1 mile road race circuit. We will also have a large adjacent lot for a full car show. Some vendors will be there, some possible sport compact celebrities, in addition to music and food. The car show will be huge! With almost 40 trophies in the works, we expect a lot of cars. So tell your friends!


Race Info:

The course looks like this:


The classes have been decided for now, but may be modified if more cars register to race than anticipated. The classes are:

Front-wheel drive non-turbo
Front-wheel drive turbo
Rear-wheel drive non-turbo
Rear wheel drive turbo
All wheel drive non turbo
All wheel drive turbo

Each class will have a first place winner and a runner up prize. Vehicles MUST be on DOT approved street tires. Vehicles with race compound tires will be in its own class. All vehicles types will be against eachother in the race compound class, with a first place and a runner up. Please keep this in mind if you intend to race competetively.


This is NOT intended for wheel to wheel racing, so do not worry about crashing into anyone, or anyone crashing into you. This is a time attack event.

Racer Admission: $70 (Includes 1 spectator ticket, you can still purchase a show admission)


Car Show:

The show is going to be fairly large. The classes are as follows:

Scion tC 1st-3rd
Scion xA/xD 1st-3rd
Scion xB 1st-3rd
Honda 1st-3rd
Nissan/Infinity 1st-3rd
Toyota/Lexus 1st-3rd
Mitsubishi/Subaru/Mazda 1st-3rd (Mazda possibly being in it's own class if the turnout is big enough)
Domestic 1st-3rd
German 1st-3rd
Please note that this has been dertermined do to online interest. We want the show to be fair for everyone. I know a lot of people will be coming from all over the country, so it will be worth your while. If the registrations show too many cars for one category, we will split it to make things more fair.


General Show Info:


Paul and I will be helping in tuning, giving driving tips, answering questions, and racing some company cars.

There will be music and a concession stand.

Expect to meet a lot of new people, in addition to the local friends you are familiar with.

Be sure to check out the Dezod booth and introduce yourself to Paul and Enrique from Dezod Motorsports, and myself (Joe from Dezod West). We'd love to meet you!


Pricing:


Racer admission - $70 (includes 1 spectator ticket)
Show Admission - $25 (includes 1 spectator ticket)
Spectator - $10 (12 and under are Free)
Bundle Entry - $85 (Includes a race and a show entry, and 1 spectator ticket). Do this if you want to enter your vehicle in both the show and race event.
Tuning admission - $50 (tune only, by Dezod, other admissions are seperate)

The 24th is a saturday, and the following Monday would be a holiday so please keep that in mind.

Tickets will be on sale momentarily. The links for purchasing a ticket will be on this page. Once you receive your digital confirmation, please WRITE DOWN your order confirmation number. You will be emailed this number as well when you check out in our system. If you have any other questions please email us. Sales@DezodWest.com

Hopefully they give enough spacing like in autocross...

If it were closer I'd consider attending. Good luck with the event.

Why oh why can't I live near Arizona? What a blast that would be. Instead, I am looking out the window at the frozen tundra of Minnesota.
