Post 2007 Freakmont Nissan BBQ @ LeMans Karting, April 28th


Its time for Freakmont again.

Click the pic above for more.

Were going to LeMans Karting this time as we out grew our previous location at Lake Elizabeth.

We'll need you all to bring the food like always. That's what makes this event the best. Plus this year we will be having various vendors on site from tuner parts and shops.

Keep checking the site for more info as it comes in. It will be constantly updated and kept up to date until the day of the event.

If you have any question, post up or email me at thedave@team-driven.net

Thanks. Also let me know if you repost this on any other forums. Thanks.

Sometimes things can't be helped. DAve was aware of the conflict w/the local Z community (with MSA). I heard from quite a few MSA participants as to "WHY?" was Freakmont scheduled on the same weekend.

It may impact some Z participation .. but NOT everyone in that area will drive all the way to SoCAL .. so there should be good Z representation.

Update regarding the incident:

First off Jason, the one that got hit, is doing better. He is out and posting online once again, however he last reported that he had 4 fractures in the head and was still under observation. Will update as he informs me. But things are looking good. He expressed that he doesn't blame anyone and hopes that everyone will learn from this.

Next is the driver, he is out pending a court date. Also, he expressed he was NOT trying to drift and had no intention of doing so. But rather he tried taking the corner in 2nd gear, along with his poor judgment he had a bad tire setup, luxury performance tires in the front(typical street tires) and racing performance tires(sticky tires), also he was late making his turn in which resulted in major understeering and eventually the accident.

Also I've updated this info on the site.

I must clarify.
As I've been getting negative and misunderstood feedback concerning my update in the previous post.

I only posted that, Not to excuse his lack of judgment of showing off, but merely stating facts that his setup was defunct before it happen. He should of known this before doing something stupid.
I posted because I wanted to get the facts straight due to my assumption that he was drifting or trying to.
He said that he doesn't know how to drift and wasn't attempting to do so, he was doing something else just as dangerous and unsafe and taking street corner TOO FAST.

I am not in any way excusing what he did. It was uncalled for and will be punished. However the driver does realize this was stupid knows he's got some serious crap ahead for him.

I do not stand for this type of behavior at my events. I try and make it known as much as possible.

It looks like you all had fun and had a pretty big turnout! I'm glad the guy that got hit is recovering ok.

Hey, for everyone that went to freakmont this year, I'm not sure if you were aware, but Alan one of the Team Driven member put together a T-Shirt for this year's event, however it seem that sales at the event were low. If you are interested in buying one now, please email Alan at inquiztor@team-driven.net
The cost is only $12 per shirt, plus shipping. There is only a limited number and sizes in M, L, XL and XXL.
