Nope - warm yourself up on the kidney track , then hit the EDC track when you feel ready

Yup regular DWYB on 10th sep - unless your name is Bernard or Mike will be plenty challenging enough for you to have fast skidding fun

Since uptake on these days has been mega slow its unlikely pod will alocate more dates as it stands

Sat DWYBs FTW

I think Lex meant that as interest has been reasonably small on these advanced days, there might not be any more for now.

Dele, just jump on the big track at dwybs, it seems to be that it gets bigger every time i go or maybe it's just me

There are these dates in calender at the mo :

Wednesday 2nd July 2008
Wednesday 27th August 2008

I really dont get this aint confident mentality - its a empty drift track with a few cones, whats the worst that could happen

Like i keep saying even if you dont do perfect runs you will enjoy trying to drift fast and can practice lefts, rights, wand fun and transitions to your hearts content in the kidney track anyways

Correct only real difference is that DWYB advanced there is space allocated for a long run up allowing for the 1st time ever in the history of uk skidding somewhere to regularly practice fast initiations

Begginers DWYB is same basic layout with no run up - but we change it just a little bit every time to keep regulars on their toes

Mate, there's nothing to do with confidence about it!


Differences between this and beginner DWYB day:
only 20 allowed.
only has 1 kidney, and 1 main track (but that main track has a run in for big initiations).


And thats about it.
I'd be doing it, as I want to go twice a month, but I'm jobless atm and genuinely can't afford to. (unless Lex lets me marshsall, *hint*, you know you want to).

This is an alternative to the DWYB day, aimed at people who're better than just doing donuts, all the way to pro license holders, but suitable for all. But its better, cos there's less people!

(now is that a good summary Lex?)

Oi F*ck off!! I have a driver tag so F you and to be fair i wouldn't want to see you on that track, you've got a lot of calming down to do before you go out on the track with the big boys!! So please dont categorise myself with you.

hahahahahaha!!!

Loz can drift, she`s just got a really hard car to drift at the mo. You however really can`t. You just do random shite behind the wheel, even when instucted otherwise. To put it simply you suck.

She`s a driver, your not. Simple as.

I did see you, i was there until the end of the day and im still of the opinion you need to get your head out of your ass and listen to people when they offer advice! I'm not great by any stretch of the imagination but i was trying to give you advice that you was blatently ignoring, so next time i wont!
