Well i fill up the car before or during the way there, (75ish miles to POD for me). Drift all day and still get back home with a little left in it.
Tyres well thats all down to how much you drift really. Oh also if you have locked diff it makes it a lot more, well thats what i found out. Last month i went through 12 tyres but all the other days when the diff was still open i would go through about 6ish.

From S/hampton, yes, discount that petrol, equate that seperately. For the drifting I'd say look at using between £40 and £50 petrol, depends on how tuned the car is (obviously is an S13...), how you drive there, if you can drift yet (I assume you can) and not just do donuts...

I'll be suprised if you use 12 tyres, you have to bear in mind xborninthefightx was literally drifting all day, when we all ran out of tyres, he carried on!

I use about £40 total, inc petrol there and back, and last time used 6 tyres, planning on maybe 8 this time, damned hopefully not more! (in a BMW 318iS with welded diff)

Yeah i couldnt really stop that day was loving it soooo much. But you can just about fit 12 tyres. That would be 10 tyres with alloys on them and another two that you will have to get fitted. Thats with no back seats or panels in the car.

I come there with 10 which were all fitted on and pumped up too, but if you dont pump them up and do that there then it should fit.

OrionRS see we S13 owners have more space in our cars

Also i made sure that i at least one tyre would go boom so it makes it even easier to fit back in the car.

lol

i got 7 rims and tyres in the car with all the panels and rear seats still attached to car so 10 shouldnt be problem if i can get rid of the rear seats...and the panels...what do i need to remove the panels and the seats??

but the fuel scares me as the prices just gone up and they been talking too much about fuel shortage and so on...

With fuel, you will be OK just fill up half way to pod and you should be good.
Not much to take the panels off just some man power, and back seat i think only have two bolts to them.

I mean fill it up at the BP near Pod. I would just fill it up to the top just to be sure, but half a tank should be ok, Ive done one day with just under half a tank, but after i really needed fuel.

Well I'm sorry Joker, I went to bed at a reasonable time Got a paypal account? I'll swallow the paypal charges if you want to do it like that...

I love my bm - I can fit 4 or 5 wheels in the boot (depends on size, 14 or 15 and inflation) and then about 6 across my back 'seat' I could stack them on top of that too....
