from Switzerland,

Bean Bandit's the name, few of you know me already through the SXOC.

I got 2 S13, a dailydriver and a S15 frontconverted one to turn into a drift/track car - down to legal issues around here this will take a couple of years but I'm a very patient person.

Still dreaming about bringing motorsport back to Switzerland but laws and circumstances are getting worse to be honest...

See you round in October

Hallo!

My name is Minga Berthold!

I see drifting in UK and some Europe also.

I look for drift on the www and I see it start in Japan! They are crazy!

Maybe perhaps I start soon I have BMW cabrio (no have roof) it is fast but will be ok for drift? I see all cars have roof but only not that little Mazda sexy I have seen in UK web: KLICK HERE

Whis is this for only cars that you are used is the Japan car? I think they are not as gut as our German cars - BMW and Mercedes! Though I like best only BMW!

My want is to strat practise and do the only girl of drift in whole of Europe. I am in Piston Club and my father has auto shop for garage.

I hope to come to UK of drifting help will this be OK?

Ciao

Minga

Hi, name is steve, some RWD experience but most of the sideways action I've had is throwing Astras sideways into roundabouts (and missing), thinking of getting something cheap and stupid to drift just for a laugh... anyone done a landrover yet?

Hello! Just got around to this Forum, been loving the drift since I first saw it in Japan in '99. Been watching the UK scene grow, good to see that it's at the point now that it's about to really take off!
It's good to see that this group is really supporting and pushing the UK scene!
