  • "Manx Pod"

    Postby Toxic-Motorsport » Tue Sep 07, 2010 8:50 am

    Hi,

    After this weekends event of Drag 'n' Drift we are currently looking into setting up a weekend event like they do at santa pod hence the name "Manx Pod".

    There is currently a discussion on our facebook page and it drawing up some interest, so i thought i would raise a topic on here to see what your feedback would be to the idea and what would you like to see at the event.

    Also if you or you know anyone that would like to get involved please let us know.

    Look forward to hearing from you.

    Regards

    Hi Sarah

    Thats sounds like a plan if you could arrange event on facebook for me as i can only access the basics on my phone :( and then we can all go from there.

    I think alot of organising will be required but with everyone on board and help from iom firms to get it of the ground i can't see why it would work.

    Hi Radag,

    Ask people if they would be interested and what they want to see and if you know anybody/company that may want to help out i.e sponsor, catering music then get them to get in touch :)

    Just an idea

    Friday night -

    Set up tents, stalls and drag

    Saturday -

    10am - 6ish drag

    7:30 - 11:00 music

    Sunday

    Open track day all day with drifters going round the track in between

    Let me know what you think ?

    Definitely I noticed no any music at the Drag 'n' Drift. Music would heat an atmosphere. A big tent with hot food and drinks could let people get warm if too cold or windy outside.

    there was a man in a van at the bottom playing some dance music but it needs to be louder.

    Also thinking the barriers need to go up both side equally
