What your car — and you — need to pass tech and hit the track at SSR drift events.
01 Vehicle Inspection
Drivers/passengers must wear a shirt, closed-toe shoes, and shorts/pants. No tank tops or shirtless drivers.
Fire suits are highly recommended.
Eye protection required — helmet shield or safety glasses.
Helmets required — SNELL/DOT SA2020/MA2020 minimum. 2015-rated helmets are no longer acceptable.
Correctly routed harnesses/seatbelts. Harnesses only permitted with a harness bar or roll cage — no floor bolting.
Batteries must be secured with legitimate tie-downs or battery boxes. No ratchet straps or bungee cords.
All vehicles must have a fire extinguisher securely mounted within driver reach — zero exceptions. Two extinguishers highly recommended.
At least 1 tow hook or bash bar required.
Drift karts or truck builds must be pre-approved before the event.
02 Engine Bay
No major visible fluid leaks — oil, coolant, power steering, or fuel.
No loose items in the engine bay.
Water + additive (e.g. Water Wetter) is the only coolant allowed. We will check. Glycol-based coolant found in your system means you are responsible for flushing and disposal on-site. Do not dump it anywhere on the property.
Fluid overflow cans recommended for power steering and coolant.
Heat shields and absorbent socks over fluid reservoirs are highly recommended.
03 Wheels, Brakes & Suspension
Brakes and clutch must be in good working order.
Handbrakes — stock or hydraulic — are highly recommended for this track.
All lug nuts must be present and tight — zero exceptions.
04 Exhaust
No current sound limit. Mufflers highly recommended but not required.
05 Interior & Electrical
Trans tunnels may be modified but must be sealed and attached to the body.
No loose items inside the vehicle.
Seatbelts/harness must be in good shape and working order. Out-of-date harnesses acceptable if in good condition.
Harnesses not permitted with factory seats not designed for them — at tech team discretion.
Racing/aftermarket seats must be securely mounted with all hardware — zero exceptions. No major cracks.
Interior and exterior lights permitted. Night drifting is on — go crazy with the lights.
06 Exterior & Chassis
No loose body panels while drifting. Doors, trunks, hoods, and hatches must be securely fastened. Bumpers may use quick-release systems.
At minimum, 1 working brake light required.
Night driving: at least 1 working running light and 1 working headlight required.
Lexan windows permitted and must be secured. Driver/passenger side windows not required. Windshields and rear glass are required.
Windshields must not be overly cracked — full top-to-bottom, side-to-side cracks will not pass. Tech team has final discretion.
Majority of body panels required (doors, fenders). Bumpers not required with aftermarket bash bars.
Exterior kill switches not required but highly recommended.
Kart-type builds require prior approval.
07 Roll Cages
Formula Drift Pro-Am regulations recommended. SCCA, NASA, and other series cages acceptable.
Convertibles without a roll bar are not permitted to carry passengers.
08 Pits, Track & Event Rules
You are responsible for your mess — trash, fluid spills, and tires. Take your tires with you.
Do not discard car parts or other items on the property. We have cameras.
Irresponsible behavior — burnouts outside the track surface, excessive speeding, endangering spectators or staff — will result in removal from the property and potential ban from future events.
