Thanks - Drifting forum

**Phil** · 17-04-2007, 22:47

Thanks to everyone who made it today

. You were all extremely well behaved, and made running our first ever event smoothly a pleasure for myself, James, and the marshals

.

Hammond · 17-04-2007, 22:48

Well behaved... Er... that lot?

Glad it was a good day for all. Phil, how did you get on with the Skyline?

Shadowness · 17-04-2007, 22:54

Gutted I couldnt make this

Sounded like a good day, the weather certainly was good enough lol! Next time hopefully

Ian.G · 17-04-2007, 23:07

Thanks back to your good selves too

A great great venue and a nice safe place to have fun.
Had a superb day and now feel quite drained from it all - was quite a drive home for me

some good slidey action to behold from all whilst in the extremely short queues (typically 2-3 cars - not seen that since a low key day at brunters over 2 years ago).

Watching the chunk manfoot that skytaxi about the place. Nice work - thats the kinda taxi ride I'd like home from the pub LOL. 'bargin car' man (I owe you a tenner for saying that right ?

)

The brothers rocked it up real good - brother will drove a niiiiisan LOL - go wash that datsun dirt off LOL.

Nothing more to say - just go book a day there now

- you wont regret it

Looking forward to viewing the moments in time captured by Mr Ross and co too.

Huge thanks to the DW team aswell, cracking day, gotta be one of the best drifty days ive had, good track layouts, well marshalled, good clean surface etc.

Only small issue for me was about passengers, i took a mate with me thats wants to get into drifting (he was hooked anyway mind LOL) but he was dissapointed he couldnt get a few passenger rides. Would be cool if this could be sorted for the next one via a passenger disclaimer or something.

The quality of drifting was just superb!!!

Looking forward to the next one

Stavros · 17-04-2007, 23:10

Was fantastic, the amount if seat time is awesome, and the fact only about 1/3 of the area was used just shows its potential.

Was well kind to tyres too somehow!

Well done all.

Great day, thanks DW!!

jonathan · 18-04-2007, 08:08

yea, was deinately the most fun ive ever had, certainly more fun than drifting coventry!

i agree with the passenger ride thing, my friends said they wouldnt mind chipping in a few quid to sit in?

cheers for a great day

steerfromtherear · 18-04-2007, 09:53

I had a great day really enjoyed myself. Surface was good on the old tyres as well, I only used 4 or 5 all day.
It really showed how much potential the area has considering how little of it we were actually using with 3 tracks set up.

Couldn't believe my luck yesterday morning to have busted my rad at the same time as picking up a spare one off of MJG.

don · 18-04-2007, 09:59

Thanks guys for a brilliant day.

Rich really enjoyed is birthday present and I think he's hooked, so we'll probably at the next one in May. It was great to see everyone so friendly and helpful. Big up to everyone there

Andy_f · 18-04-2007, 10:20

Was a great day, I had soooo much fun. I hadn't had much chance to practice in the dry before and I could really feel myself improving a lot as the day went on. I felt very satisfied by the end. I'd also point out the passenger thing, was a bit dissapointed to find out we couldn't take them, would definately like that to be sorted out for next time if possible.

Only made it through one pair of shitty 15's with nasty tread and one set of just about legal 17's. Was very good on tires.

Personally I think all you DW boys were worse behaved than us, looning it about on minibikes and stuff! lol, was bloody funny to watch though.

superclarkey · 18-04-2007, 10:41

The passanger thing i don't think is down to like just signing a bit of papper ... i think there are massive costs to allow this to happen ect... so if you guys are happy like paying more for the day... .i'm sure DW could sort it out

clarkey

Stavros · 18-04-2007, 10:57

I guess the passenger thing is a lil bit dissapointing for some, but personally, I dont see the problem, your there to get better at drifting, not take folk for joy rides.

Id rather have less people and less money then passengers and higher price or whatever.
