Event Description

Hornsby Industrial Estate is the test facility for a full blown attempt at drift longboarding.

What is it?

Racing down a steep wide hill between cones, cardboard banks and through gates, in slalom and head to head racing.

Speeds over 70, thane lines over 20m, maximum level of stoke and adrenaline.

Gear

Ride whatever wheels you want. I was going to ban square-lipped wheels but a set of dusted InHeats will rock on this track and plenty of sideways action will still be going down.

Rego

$20 entry.

Rider Limits

  • Opens: 32
  • Womens: 8

What else?

Heaps of give aways, beer and bbq all day.

ASRA points awarded!!!

I'm keen as mustard to kick some ass and will post a demo video of the track and idea.

brandon, there will be no riders on the track at the same time as racing, but traffic has to be allowed to move easily up and down so we dont piss anyone off, its an outlaw event so no, its not a closed road, theres too many back up hills but they are only get steeper and faster and a load more gnarly

No the road is a public road, but I work on it and on Sundays it's at it's quietest because only warehouses and factories are there and the tend not to work on Sundays
