You and your vehicle will have to be upto full NFS EDC spec (as the following day is Round 5 which I am sure you guys will want to enter if you get a license) plus the course will be full competition spec so from a safety perspective everything has to be as per rules and regs.

As mentioned it's the last chance to go for a license in 2009 and this is an opportunity to see just how good you are infront of Maz who is without doubt the best qualified judge in Europe having been on the judging side of things 100% with us and the D1 for many many years - Maz has been around the block that's for sure (lol) and I can't think of anyone better to do this job so this is the best chance to take advantage of his unbiased input, support and indepth knowledge of eveything in and around Drift competition

If anyone is considering having a go at this I'd highly recommend it. The feedback from Maz was probably some of the best advice I've ever been given on my driving. As a result I managed to progress more than I'd have done in several months of normal practice days. Its demanding and you wont get the licence unless you can consistently pull off perfect runs but they really want you to achieve it and do everything they can to help.

WORD! on the last pod edc day, after every run, Maz was reporting back on pointers/tip/things to change etc. was an excellant way of structuring the day, and areas to work on

Try here.

Dunno why the original link stopped but that seemed to work.
Just to reiterate whats been said, Maz will pass info back to the startline and you'll be told what he's said, so you can adjust your next run.
I don't know the format but if there is a break he's great at briefing face to face (if you can get over the Bernie haircut, please try not to stare).

There are full tech regulations available. They used to be on the website but seem to have got lost somewhere during the renewal. If you have any urgent questions, it would be best to contact Marc the scrutineer at scrutineer@europeandriftchampionship.eu and he will be able to help you out.

look forward to seeing you there.
