hello to all you drifters out there,

Im a newbie to the drift scene, got into it just before all the d1gb rounds started! been to all (part from knockhill) and was very impressed!! Started myself a few months ago in my wrong wheel drive civic ep1, got very frustrated with it so sold up and im now a proud Z32 owner! half way throu stripping out the junk and awaiting my ECU, suspension, increasing steering, locking the rear wheel steering n all the other little bits. had some good lessons from the drift academy and have caught the bug soo bad its all i bloody think about. hope to be tracking it this 2007!!

Sure ill meet some of you in the future,

Happy Drifting!!

Hello, I'm Adam from Maidstone, at the moment I'm rocking a beautiful Yaris Automatic due to my S2000 being weaker than a brick wall. Whoops!

Anyway, I'm really interested in getting into drifting and am looking at getting a cheapo 200sx that I can learn in and destroy. I'm planning to do a training day, such as drift academy. Is this the best way to get started, would really appreciate any advise. Cheers.

sup guys i'm a 16 year old from sweden that's into drifting,
been trying to get my '67 volvo P210 sideways with no luck even on snow,
it's uncontrollable so i've had my encounters with sidewalks and misc. roadside obstacles.
but i'm trying to sell it and get a volvo 142 which should work much better,
with some engine tuning and suspension work. will post pics when i get one.

Hello everybody on Driftworks.Im just getting used to my new computer so thought i would post a hello as a trial post.I have been a guest observer of this site for two years now and thought it was about time i stopped lifestylin.Will try and sort more details when my hangover wears off!!

chris m3 evo · 22-01-2007, 21:53

Hi, new to the site but not really to driftin...I have been street driftin(well power slidin anyway) since the days when Capris could be bought new!
Then realised a couple of years ago that you could drift for longer on the track.So I have been to Elvington 10 times in the last 2 years and went to Oulton park dec 2006.
Cars wise; well mostly rear wheel drive(over a hundred now).Recently I have had a BMW fascination and currently have a E36 328i Sport drift car and a M3 EVO which is concorse condition and is mainly used for shows and weekends..
