July 20 - 21, 2012

Evergreen Speedway (14405 179th Avenue SE, Monroe, WA, 98272)

Formula DRIFT has been a big hit at Evergreen Speedway for years now,
located in Monroe, WA, only a short distance from Seattle. It
is one of FD's fastest and most competitive circuits. Drivers reach
speeds of over 90mph on corners 1&2 on the 5/8's track.

The Northwest is home to some of the region's most die-hard drift
fans. The energy and excitement is often compared to that of
Irwindale and the original “House of Drift.” The event’s headline
moniker, “Throwdown,” lives up to it’s name as drivers push their
vehicles to the limits of the track’s banking and tight transitions
through the course resulting in one of the most exciting,
action-packed events of the season. The event goes on rain or shine
and the action never fails to disappoint. *This season, enter our
SPECIAL PROMO CODE while purchasing tickets online and receive $3OFF
and be automatically entered into our grand-prize contest giveaway.
Use online code " RSDTP " for a chance to win an actual ride-along with
a pro driver on the track!!

They were selling tickets at the door this morning, pretty sure they'll still have some for the next day. Starts at 12pm! You can go in and out as long as you show them your stamp.

the V8s are the loudest, glad we had earplugs =D. In the final competition, Rich and I got so much debris and asphalt flying over us.

couldnt make it this year =(

was there any rotaries in the line up?

V8's are loud, but a rotary is louder =P (especially one about to blow the motor up)

^@ 0:23 of 1exotic's video, that looks and sounds like a 1st gen rx7... I could be wrong as I didn't get to attend the event, but there's no mistaking that sound, especially when you own two :D and if I am indeed wrong, I stand corrected :lol

actually looking at the video in fullscreen, it may be a 2nd gen (I'm still gonna hold out for first though, FCs aren't usually that "bee in a tin can" sounding) that has a rear hatch similar to Shawn from Drift Union

The Cosworth FRS was my favourite sounding car this year, followed second by Forsberg's ITB v8, holy crap we could feel the roar thru our bodies

I was in the border line right behind that white evo, and beside the e.lo type-r and a 180sx

I was wandering where you were all off to

I ended up down there on the Saturday as well. That was a great show. Seeing as it was my first time going, I am hooked. Good people, tons of nice cars, perfect weather, one really couldn't have asked for a better day.


Saw a few BC plated cars pulled over by some troopers on the way in along with a very wrecked red car (couldn't tell the make.) Hope it wasn't anyone from here, if so hope all involved are ok. It looked like a bad hit.

None of the BC plated cars we convoyed with were pulled over, there was an incident on the highway that caused us to have an emergency stop. Cruiser just told us to move out the way due to dangerous circumstances.

Event was sick and lived through the hype IMO. Attendees definitely should have stayed until the end, the drifting was that much more intense post top32.
