Just posting this through just incase anyone might be interested learning how to drift/practise. It is not a competition so you can drive as fast or as slow as you like.

D-Day Wakefield Park 9th Jan 2011

Instruction will be on hand during the day from some of the longest serving drifters in the land.

YOUR CAR WILL NEED TO PASS SCRUTINEERING - Working seatbelts or valid harnesses, properly installed seats, working brakes and brakelights, working windscreen wipers if it rains, all wheelnuts present and no leaks are the basics. Convertibles will not be allowed unless they have a rollcage that extends above the driver's head. Any questions, please ask or read the FAQ below.

YOU WILL NEED AN AS1698 (that little red and silver sticker) APPROVED HELMET, LONG SLEEVES, PANTS AND CLOSED SHOES
