How much did their TINY DRIFT TRACK cost to build, and so many other questions. 

its nice to see someone straight up say "we owe this all to our parents, they helped us out 100%" and NOT have everyone immediately star bashing them for using daddy's money, blah blah blah. These guys come of as very humble and very aware (i know its hard to tell form just one youtube vid, but you can usually get an idea). They seem honest and upfront, and i give them a major kudos to taking what their parents said to heart, and also giving back to the community. I know that they have to make money to continue, but it seems like just the love of drifting alone can keep this going for a while. Keep up the good work guys!

Props to their parents for being a backbone for a growing sport. And those kids seem like solid dudes and appreciate the situation they were born into. Can’t wait to see content from this track.

Driven luck Circuit 2024 is about to get wild brother. Hope to see you guys soon

I'm going to a private event at this track in May. Thanks for sitting down with the owners. Hopefully they are able to keep improving/expanding for years to come!

They need to keep dropping merch. We can always just support that way.

good job holding it together while Aaron holds a phone 2 feet from yall's face lmao - but tbh, spending $150 on a tripod & lav mics might not be grass roots enough lol but really, you guys seem real genuine & we are all rooting for you. Going into this without taking on crippling debt is an amazing start & a great use of what you were blessed with by the fam. I truly believe you'll have the community rallying behind yall to help with all the rest now that more are starting to learn the story.

That's an epic move from the parents, - "we want to see you enjoy it"

Seems like some chill dudes, might have to go check out their track!

heard about these guys on the Circle of Drift Pod. Love the work that they’re putting in it’s beautiful to see how far they’re going

They seem like really genuine dudes. Stoked to get out there and drive this year. I drive Midpond a good bit and this is the next closet one to me ❤

Hell yeah, I'm trying to build a road coarse, WRC, & drag track here in Colorado that is FIA, HPDE, SCCA, NHRA certified. For the bare minimum I'm looking at 11.8 million. I'm looking to find investors and whatnot bro I've been working on it for over a year doing my SWOT analysis and doing actual cost estimates. I understand how difficult its been getting this done. Hats off to ya cannot wait to see the progress!

10/10! It's exactly what i want to do for my kid! Pass it forward! Early so i can see what they do! I've massivly pushed for better children for our planet! While I am at it, I'll bank some side cash, buy some land, and make it so my kiddos can have WHATEVER they want for their future!

One of the most fun tracks that I’ve driven!

These guys are living out every drivers dream! Keep up the great work and good vibes!

this is so cool... this makes me miss parc so much, i moved to the portland area to enjoy parc and than it goes away

Thank you for sharing these wholesome dude with us. Best of luck to them. Follow up in year 3 ask same questions plus more, would love to see their progress.

Wholesome dudes. Enjoy the facility, and can’t wait to be back!

Hands down the best track I've driven to date. Such a chill vibe, great family that makes sure you're taken care of, great facility, can't wait to get back out there soon. Coy, Cade, and the rest of the family are amazing. Support these folks and let's see this place grow. Much love 🤘

Awesome people and a great vision, can’t wait to see what’s to come!

A tiered membership plan would possibly go a long way towards the coverage of that debt. Like a set amount of hours/days per tier along with a certain amount of free tickets for the event days or discounts (again depending on the level of membership) per tier. Events themselves would also be a potentially good means of attracting the crowds, from beginners drift courses to workshops with a particular renowned driver, but also events on the land that aren't even driving/drifting related. My first thought in that regard was the Download festival that's held at Donnington race track each year. It doesn't have to be an overnight/sleep there (though that could be an option for a set amount of premium style tickets, with a glamping sort of vibe idk). Sorry if none of these ideas are viable for you guys, I was just pulling stuff out of the top of my head. I really wish you all the success with this endeavour and you are absolute legends for even trying this and if I am ever in your neck of the woods (I live in the UK) I am absolutely love to spend some time spinning out on your track. All the best for the future dudes, both with the track but with your personal lives as well.

We’re so lucky to have so many great people apart of this community

17:14 - 17:18 that's how my village sits in the german country side, in the middle of a city triangle, 40-50 minutes to each of the cities (nonetheless only 10 min to the next big grocery store). In the 'middle of nowhere', BUT in the middle of a city triangle, it's not only the best place when you want to build something that makes noise, for me it's the best place to live!

I’ve been to three DLC events so far since they’ve opened and even with the small amount of features the track and the vibe is unmatched and you can just feel its gonna be something big one day

Great content , do more like this Aaron . Excited to visit Driven Luck Circuit

30min from Chatt is actually very accessible being centralized around Nashville, Knoxville, and Atlanta. 2.5 Hr total commute with hotels available in Chatt is very doable.

I was quoted $100,000 to pave just my driveway. These guys got a tremendous deal.

Damn these guys are living the dream! What a fortunate family, good for them!

that's awesome! I wish there was a drift track in or near Marshall County WV. best we ever had around here was a little go cart track but that got taken away years ago

The Dillards are some of the nicest people I've ever met, and the weekend i went there was the most fun ive had drifting. Seriously a place everyone needs to go experience. My friends and I drove about 10 hours one way to get there and we're already trying to plan a trip back.

I'm in ATL and I would love to being my car out there for a week and just get all the seat time that I can. Lanier isn't as accessible as I would like it to be and I just want to drive whenever I have some free time. This track looks so dope.

Their GoFundMe isn't in the description

Hell yeah keep pushing yall in in va would love to come drive there

This was very unexpected and awesome. Loved those guys. Let me mess around and hit the mega millions and I’m sending them big check lol.

Exodus to Alabama in my future is something I havent thought Id ever say is needed.

Love this Family! ❤

Great interview! Stoked for these guys. Is there any content available of the track? I wanna see it! Thanks bros!

They really do make you feel like family down there 🤘🏼🤘🏼the best track in the southeast !! From the track to the family we love it down there !!!

Just bought some merch and donated! Lfg guys!!

This is so nice for drifting I’ll be visiting the track soon my self and support the locals

Really Dope!

Hey Aaron, I hear you say that you would like to see a drift track that isn't in the middle of nowhere. I too would love that! But what about dealing with the noise? If it's too close to a densely populated area I could see a problem being noise complaints. Love the content!

Some real ones, big thanks to them and to their parents.

good guys and great vid would love to come down and drive it one day.

A major income could be building a shop on the land and doing work out of it. Kinda like Tokushima kart land.

Need to visit it one day!

You say a little track like that is only good for drifting but it'd be good for autocross too should they want to expand into the grip world.

this is sick, its like Villains Sportsland

I’ve got to get out there this summer, it’s too close not to go.

I was just thinking about how i want to move to alabama and get a job at a zoo. i wonder if they would be down to make a literal north american ebisu and have a zoo on the property as well because id happily work there and landscape the track in between tending to the animals

thanks guys thats awesome do you have any content on the building of the track

Would love to see you look in to JDMXPARK in South Australia it’s a purpose built drift track built buy one man in the middle of the outback

"We" could surely do some SCCA time trails and spec circuit races there. Hopefully they get into that and broaden their market.

Coy and Caden are some of the nicest people in drifting

This is sick im coming to the track asap not far from me

I've been involved in the building or renovation of a circuit track, a drag strip and the building of a 1/4 mile oval. All three were undertaken by millionaires who owned construction and paving companies.

Bro! Instead of just having a drift track business and relying on it to make all the money, start or buy an asphalt business as well. That seems to bring in huge moneez and you can use the equipment to build your own track fro minimal cost. Win/Win.

I don't know if you know this but there is another drift track in the works up in New Hampshire

hey Aaron you didn't link the gofundme in the description

Paved road to get in? Aaron likes to dream big :)

The pit asphalt is more expensive because parking lots are much thicker to support standing weight for extended periods of time. You want it thicker to prevent damage from jackstands and trailer jacks, etc

I'm Ganna try my ass off to get out there this year I wanted to make out last summer but gas was to high for MD to Alabama for me had to stay local

Was zoning or permits an issue?

Check out Interstate Raceway in Glyndon MN/Fargo

They need to buy the land around their track to battle noise ordinances

does the track will have Japanese track aesthetic? like Meihan C sign at the straight, blue white curbs from ebisu circuit/meihan

They should do a 3-5 day drift school once a month with a select amount of students that could help bring in some money maybe get a couple missile cars to even rent out for track days that’s an idea

legends

Aaron, you forgot to post the GoFundMe link 🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️

Is the track miehan without the connections?

I don't blame you for not wanting to tell everyone to shut up but did you feel the same about asking them to be quiet? Just curious I'm pretty sure that's what you meant I would be uncomfortable asking them to quiet down also. I think it sounds fine though

Awesome vid, you gotta get an interview with the guys in Florida building another drift and drag park @leadfootcity

If I had land it would be a rally stage over drifting.

How do I get ahold of these guys. I build and remodel homes for a living Handy Manny property improvement. And my main idea for a business plan is tiny home trailor parks. Tiny home parks all i need to live is one room eletric and internet.lol I'll help build a dream track like that and I'll live and stay with yall. And build a dream together

Property tax too lol. I just think that people don't understand how much cars cost let alone managing a real track. There's a reason why "NASCAR ONLY" tracks have multiple track layouts to reduce the risk / alleviate burden of income into a financial 'investment' such as a track. The added costs of everything for upkeep and continuing such requires a complex balance sheet. It would be nice to drop $1.5mil everywhere for track layouts, but we're not as small as Japan and we are definitely way more spread out in terms of drifter per square mile average compared to such. I see all these dope tracks online, but it makes almost zero sense to try to make it out across the US because of gas mileage/lodging/towing costs. Thanks for the video and reminding me how long I've bene into drifting. 20 years here And after a 6-7 year hiatus, I'm getting back to it.

Good job on thanking your parents. Dont see that much anymore. And awesome for pursuing your dreams.

Super excited to now have TWO drift tracks here in Alabama, and the owners are midpond natives which means the vibes are absolutely carried over🤌🏾

you could make the track in a simulator before you actually build it, that way you can test the layout and do changes before building anything. I think that's how they design new race tracks today

Oh and p .s if I hit the mega I’ll send a very large check to help the American Ebisu!!

These two are great with great vibes and there doing something amazing for the community, but if they wanna succeed and be able to do all the cool things for the track that they wanna do then they are definitely going to need someone with a buisness sense because giving services away for free or giving the homie hook up is just not sustainable. I'm not talking about over pricing everything. I just mean you gotta treat it like a business first and at some point you'll be able to give the homie discount. I have no doubt in my mind that you guys will flourish. It's time to bring the tracks back to America.

I don't think the Go fund me was added.

siiiiiiick

Need an American ebisu

ugh gonna get a contact buzz off the pipe-dream

Merch merch merch. Get some good designs and start dropping T shirts, get with a good dude in creating and make a replica Track for Assetto Corsa charge $2 for the download etc there are a million ways to profit off this.

Charging an appropriate amount (being profitable) is a better path than relying on gofundme's to sustain and grow.

Where is the gofund me?

Minibike motogp cart racing track for scale campgrounds

After A while they should hire a groundskeeper on low wages but supply a small home for free, also free track time !

Avs is near a prison so it’s not nowhere visit family and go drifting.

Why kind of psychopath writes perpendicular to the lines in a notebook?

Where's the go fund me?

Lineage roots racing is not grass roots drifting. Just saying. People from the mud have WAY MORE challenges in front of them. Grass roots minority drifting is so ignored it's a joke

Long story short youre way better off buying land in the middle of nowhere and building your own 4-5 corner 2nd gear track and charge 10 of your close friends here n there and let them all sleep in your house/use your bathroom. Opening a track for drifting is 1000% not worth it lmao

$1.5million = the price of two long-block 2jz-gte direct from somebodies backyard shipped to your door in 2027 😂

go fund me link? i tried to post it in comment but i think youtube doesn’t like links in comment

You can have a box track in the middle of the course and ha week Bmx for more income Plus with sponsorships from BMX and also tires car parts car places advertisement signs always help out Paying the bills

wheres the go fund me??
