So its settled am going to get into drifting propley as the licencing day for the bdc is on the 24th jan I am going to use this year as pratice year and then 2010 go for my licence. I will be using my supra as its half way there now with its 1.5 lock diff ksport suspension drift hand brake twin plate clutch etc. So look out for me. British Drift Championship is going to be huge this year with the most ever competitors entering and also tv corverage. So this gives me a good excuse to get my name out there too. also with my company being heavly involved with the skylineowners.com drift team and driftworks them selves its only right that I make a go of it my self. I have sorted out free tyres and have a few sets of wheels all ready spare. So this year all the ice in my supra to be stripped out and put into the gto supra interior to be stripped and replaced with 2 sparco seats two 4 point harness roll cage more steering lock overhaul my lsd possible get a second diff and weld it up. all bling to be removed too. so say for the first 3 months of this year my supra is going to go from a show car to a drift slag. Oh let the fun commense. If you want to see my supra as a show car you can see her on january 25th at a skyline show at the cock hotel in manchester. ther be about 30 - 35 skylines and a few other cars including my supra. My 2009 -2010 plan.
ive also considered trying to do some proper drifting instead of what oliver zs and sweeney the saw on closed in a fwd car but vauxhall dont seem to have an budget rwd cars apart from the omega or carlton either straight 6 or v6 both a big and bulky altho the drifters seem to pickup them to make them really light over the rear end so maybe it would work i dont no as of yet tho so im not sure
best option to learn is a volvo rwd or a bmw both are easy fix if smashed and can pick them up for approx £200 strip em weld the rear diff and go out have fun if you have some more cash some suspension.
i nearly had a bmw 750li the other day for 300quid damn but i would stick to vauxhalls always maybe get an old manta
Do it kaz i have seen you get a fwd car very sideways and hold and not put it in 2 a curb. DO IT DO IT DO IT
Sorry dan forgot to say good luck mate and hope it all goes well and also hope the business takes off will have to give you a list of bits i want and see what prices you can get.
