NOPI Drift Finals - NOPI Nationals
NOPI Nationals is HERE!
With the 07 NOPI Nationals event just a few weeks away on September 15th and 16th, the anticipation for the biggest show in the nation is getting unbearable! Each year the number of cars, spectators and vendor’s increases and this year is no different!
There is a ton of excitement going on this year at NOPI Nationals with the inaugural season of the NOPI Professional Drift Series. NOPI has chosen the NOPI Nationals to host the final event of the 2007 season. With the unexpected cancellation of the NOPI Drift Chicago event, NOPI had to make some quick decisions on what they were going to do in regards to points. With all resources being exhausted trying to get the NOPI Drift Chicago event underway or rescheduled, NOPI has come up with a great alternative. The decision was made that the NOPI Drift final event will be double the points and double the cash prizes!
Initally, we required you to run two events to be eligible to compete at the World Finals, but with the cancellation of the Chicago event, we will only require you to have run one NOPI DRIFT event in 2007.
DOUBLE ($20,000) PAYOUT - DOUBLE POINTS
1st Place - $10,000
2nd Place - $4000
3rd Place - $2000
4th Place - $1200
5th Place - $1000
6th Place - $800
7th Place - $600
8th Place - $400
“With the last minute cancellation of the NOPI Drift Chicago event, we were really put into a bind! I wanted to show all of our supporters and drivers that we exhausted all efforts to keep that event on schedule, but at the end of the day, it was not up to us. We figured with doubling the points and double the payouts, the drivers would be excited to see just how big the purse could get. With the points and payouts being doubled, there will be plenty of competition to watch!” Said Michael Meyers, President of NOPI Motorsports.
