GetawayDriver Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 Is anyone else into Drifting in the club? The drift days i have been to have been mostly Nissan affairs with 200sx's and Skyline GTS-T's being the order of the day. Does anyone fancy some kind of drift day? I don't have any plans as such, just testing the water... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muffleman Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 I'd love to give it a go, but a) I'm a total noob and b) wouldn't want to stuff the supe into something immovable, so lots of run-off please Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GetawayDriver Posted January 18, 2005 Author Share Posted January 18, 2005 You'd be surprised how much instinct takes over when things get sideways. Getting it there is one thing, holding it there and more importantly getting it back to straight again smoothly is where the skill comes in. I'm only starting out too, but those few moments past the limit are well worth the effort. A disused tarmac airstrip would be perfect, not concrete, too harsh on tyres. Wet would be easier and far cheaper in tyres. Perhaps we can hire a water truck or something? can anyone think of anywhere like that?

cashpoint Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 Jay There have been a couple of drift days up at bovingdon airfield end of last year, that i went to. Don't know when the next one is but as it was wet so no-one went throught any tyres. are you registered on japukmeets.co.uk or driftworks.com as this is where i found out about the drift a bovingdon.

GetawayDriver Posted January 20, 2005 Author Share Posted January 20, 2005 bovingdon? god damn it! pretty ropey surface though, i bet that rough old concrete did wonders for your tyres! the last time i did any drifting up at bovingdon air strip i was in a 70's Camaro and got chased by 4 pikies in a transit with alsations for being 'on their manor' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
