MARTIN R Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 The barriers were a joke tbh. There was simply not enough run off area. Joking apart that could of become a very nasty accident:( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruff_Rider Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 Why don't you see many drift Supras? I assume it's something to do with geometry? Or is it just that nobody wants to ruin their Supe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul_SWZ Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 Driftuk rent a bit of my yard and a workshop off me, and i also sponsor thier Rx-7 drift car. (i own the car;) ) Was talking to terry the boss today and they had a real problem with the barrier/crowd thing! Some muppets decided to go on track at 3am and one had a big off into the railings. The steel feet went straight through his door and stopped about 5mm from his leg. No marshalls, no paramedics. You'd think they'd know better! Also Andy 'i cant drift for beans' Barnes nearly went into the crowd. When is there next meet how can i get involved please;) ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Branners Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 The barriers were a joke tbh. There was simply not enough run off area. Joking apart that could of become a very nasty accident:( I have to admit I was watching with Raoul and I made sure to keep way back from the barriers and made sure I knew what was behind me in case i had to move. Problem is if you stick the spectators too far away it loses its appeal. JB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 Some muppets decided to go on track at 3am Damn! Why the hell didn't I think of doing this? Why don't you see many drift Supras? I think they're a bit weighty maybe? Or you need to be a good driver to get them sideways for a long time?...200sxs seem to naturally go sideways.

Ruff_Rider Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 Maybe if they 'watered' the track. The Supra couldn't help but go sideways then! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
