I might be going, in which case there will be a half hour mid-morning intermission while I rebuild the tyre wall and have my car dragged off the track, again.

I love Barkston.

sammysideways · 10-07-2007, 11:07

im there in the track attack 180sx

Sweeps · 10-07-2007, 11:53

I've heard SO much about this venue and have been told it has everything a drift track needs!

It does make perfect sense to go if you had booked drift central...

Its more seat time !

cookwibble · 10-07-2007, 12:55

can anyone who has been tell me a little about the surface and tyre wear? also the track they lay out? and if they have tyre changing?

sammysideways · 10-07-2007, 13:10

pot holey on the large figure of 8, not to bad. tyres need to be warmed evenly otherwise delamination occours. can be bit harsh on tyres just keep control of temps and dont let them get to hot.
tracks tight in places but works well, large figure of 8 as mentiuoned too.

no tyre changing though

As for tyre changing, there's a place about 10/15mins away in grantham that will do them, it's a selecta-tyre.

JONXLR8 · 12-07-2007, 19:39

I'm booked.

I've been once before, it's an impressive and challenging course layout and the fastest i've drifted so far (very top of 2nd).

Well organised and run event too with good marshalling.
