Afternoon chaps. I have been mulling this over for a while now and thought I would post in here, after reading the sticky at the top of the page it said this is the section for "Newbie" questions, so here it goes. I originally registered on this forum years ago (forgot my user name and re-registered recently) but truth be known the only thing I have ever had sideways is my Ford ranger pick up in the work yard after a bit of rain! I originally registered to read through some of the pretty spectacular build threads. Now as time has gone on I have moved away from a previous interest (Classic minis, used to have tonnes of fun doing the runs and meets) and I am not looking at having a go at something else for 2015. I am considering having a go at this drifting stuff but have no idea where to start. I am considering setting myself a very cheap budget and starting out with something small and cheap, around £500 on a MX5, old beamer or something of that variety. I have no interest in this Streeto Lark but am pretty close to Lydden Hill, Are there many days down there for complete beginner drifters? or is it a case of going up to pod for a DWYB day and they trying to progress from there? Thanks in advance for ay help and sorry for the very beginner questions.
MX5, weld the diff, drift button on the handbrake, air filter, straight pipe. Go start having fun! My opinion anyway
I dont think Lydden is really the best bet for your first ever drift day. It certainly isnt for the guy monstering up behind you at the top of 4th anyway
