A: Yes!

Q: Do I need a roll cage and racing suit to participate?
A: Yes, roll cage, racing suit and helmet will require tech inspection.


Q: Will I be able to participate in Tandem with a bolt in cage?  
A: Yes - however if you earn your license or are awarded an invitation to ProAm Nationals your car has to meet all of the tech requirements in the Formula Drift ProAm

Q: How many "racing/bucket" seats are required for Tandem?
A: You will only need one "Bucket" Seat and one certified harness
