Hi there folks I've been lurking on the forum since January but haven't posted till now because I didn't have a drifty car and wasn't getting to involved in the scene. BUT I'm going to pick up Glen's white Silvia on Saturday all going well and try and get along to a few of the big events left this year. I'm just outside Glasgow so a fair bit away from the majority of use lot but that wont stop me

Cheers mate I have ben reading the boards for ages now and from what I have read it seems Glens a top bloke, which I can back up so far with all help and info he's gave me. Hopefully I will be along to a few events, I won't be competeing because I aint that good yet but as they say practice makes perfect (hopefully )

Erm, just realised I never actually put anything in here

err right,

I'm Gary, I'm from Naarwich in the South east of this lovely country.

I started out with an AE86 which I purchased off the great Kenny, sadly I was very inexperienced and didn't really know what I was letting myself in for, it didn't work out (sorry Kenny for messing you about on that one )

I am very interested in drift though my true love lies in grip, but I'm not here to tell you to do anything, as I like both (go both ways, erm, so to speak )

Oh, and I currently drive a Mk2 Golf GTi, which is being race prepped for next year

Hello, My name is Mark I live in Bromyard about 15mins from Worcester.

I currently drive a S15 Varietta; this is NOT going to be used for drifting.

When I have finished with the S15 I would like to get a S13 to start drifting but with the way the Varietta is using my money it could be some time yet.

Hi there, name's Edwin, from Rotterdam/Holland.
I'm 24 and came into drifting during my visits to japan in 2000 and 2001. (im a sailor) When we were in Yokohama, one on the shoreguys took me to a touge and thats where i lost my heart, it was wonderfull.

My ride is an 94 S13, with the usual tweeks and bits, bringing it up to 200whp. Will not put up a big list of mods here, but it has fitted full Blitz exhaust(incl down and uppipe), Sports Clutch, S14 diff, S14 seats, Koni Adjustables, HKS meters, T25G ballbearing (which is too small )etc. Anyway, i know it needs to be way lower but this is undoable in Holland with all the speedbumps . Further the plan is 9" x 17" rims to suit the car in a normal way, not like it is now.

Ive been posting in the mediasection before btw.

i'm the 1 with spoonjacket.

Hope u like it, but im desperately in need of spacers or new rims.
anyway, keep the worx up guys!

Hi guys and girls,
I'm Danny from northants england, been looking at some of the drifting going on in the uk having done some work for customers in the scene,
I always find it better to follow and understand the customers needs by getting involved myself.
My background is Drag racing where I have been involve with cars from my own 12second Ford lightning pick up through to 4second top fuel dragster which I travelled around europe with. Motorsport is my day to life so not just a hobbie and I love it that way. Hope to get on well with you all in here so be easy on me.
