    Hello,

    My name is Jack Pagano, I'm from hertfordshire.

    Been browsing the driftworks forum for few years now with my brother and have finally decided it's time to get into drifting. I have been into bikes for the last 7 years owning 7 in total. I still own two, honda cbr600rr and Aprilia rs250. My Aprilia is a race bike and I competed in the bemsee motorcycle club last year on it which was mega fun but also hard times with injuries which is why this year I have stopped racing due to commitments at working study. Trying to get a degree in engineering within next few years and missing out because of a accident on the bike isn't worth it at the moment to me so want to do something safer which means 4 wheels.

    I own a Toyota gt86 which is great fun and is currently my daily. I am a composite technican (laminator) and currently build aircraft from carbon fibre and glass composite. My race bike is carbon....naturally. I have made a carbon fibre hydro lever for my brothers friend which was 25mm thick solid carbon fibre....f*cking strong!

    Back to to drifiting im mainly looking at something jap. First choice would be something like an rx7 or silvia but as with everything its money dependant.

    A question I would like to ask is where are drifting practice days? It seems like no one does trackdays for drifting so where can I practice when the time comes and I get a car.

    Thanks

    jack

    Hi, I'm new to the drift scene. I'm wanting to build a missile car to have fun in. Any recommendations on a cheap, starter car?

    Mind has been made. I'm going after a stock s13. Should be more than enough to learn in. Let the search begin/continue
