The tour
Six event weekends.
Three states.
From the Carolinas to Virginia.
The 2026 season tours driver-favorite layouts — Piedmont Drift, Southampton & Dominion Raceway in VA, Hickory Motor Speedway and Off Grid Motorsports Park — each with the run-off, flow and clipping points that make for proper tandem racing, plus paddock space and grandstands close enough to taste the smoke.

Common questions
Do I need a ticket for every day?
Ticket formats vary by event. The active event listing controls available days, weekend access, pricing and checkout terms.
How old do I have to be to drive?
Drivers who are 16 or 17 must have a parent or guardian present to sign an additional form, where available at that track. All drivers and cars must pass CMD's tech inspection before hitting the track.
Are kids allowed? What's the cost?
CMD welcomes families. Check the active event listing for the current age-based admission policy and price before arriving.
What happens if it rains?
Drifting happens rain or shine, but the schedule can shift for safety and track resets. Follow our socials for real-time updates on event weekends.
