We are very grateful for their extended hand and we look forward to the upcoming races!

Drifting Pretty has frequented a number of K1 Speed locations throughout southern California including Anaheim, Torrance, and Ontario. Today will be the first in the series at K1 Speed Torrance. Stay tuned for the results!

This will be our first race of four of this year’s point series.  After each race each driver will be awarded the following points:

1st Place:  8 points

2nd Place: 4 points

3rd Place: 2 points

4th Place: 1 point

All prospective, provisional and official members are welcome to attend.  If any ladies want to join us contact Julie for details and a detailed invitation!

Can’t wait to see you all!

We began the meeting with a delicious potluck lunch…pasta, fried rice, homemade tamales, salad, rice crispy, cheesecake, and many more.  Then we discussed our upcoming events and goals for 2012.  This will be our 9th year in operation and it’s going to be exciting and busy! Check out our 2012 Schedule.

Ever wondered how to fix your car? Do you want to learn how to go sideways? What about seeking the right line for the upcoming corner? Cars and racing can often be intimidating but we want you all to know that the community– and not only Drifting Pretty– is far more welcoming than you could imagine. Our members can attest to that, so if you have answered yes to any of these questions, please don’t hesitate to come and attend the 2012 Drifting Pretty Kick-Off!

At the beginning of each year, Drifting Pretty members and prospectives gather to preview upcoming events for the entire year. Both expectations and personal goals are set at this time.

Visit our application page and send us your application– details of the when and where will be made available to you afterwards. We hope to see you there!
