Guests can choose to also be a part of the high-powered action! You can bring your own vehicle to join in drifting or the off-road section of the festival, or you can choose to do a ride-along with a professional driver, giving all the choice of how heavily involved you want to be.
“We encourage people to come on out and camp, bring your own cooler, lawn chair, and come out and enjoy it the way you want to enjoy it,” said Rose. “Explore it and it’s just a great way to come out and do it the way you want to do it.”
