FAQs

How many tyres do i need ?

Lots - rule of thumb is as many as you can fit in car as there is nothing worse than being at drift day with a working car, empty track and no tyres

Can my mates come out for passenger rides ?

Yup

Is it fully booked yet ?

Once full i will post up 'Fully booked '

Help it has sold out - what do i do ?

We hold back 10 tickets at every event as people often dont turn up. Advance tickets are £60 - Pay on day £70

Do i need a welded diff / Fancy JDM 2-way ?

a diff that locks both wheels will help - however its not vital for you to come along and have FUN

Do I need lots of power/ Stage6.9chip/ SuperDuperHybridTurbo/ 2JZ

Nope.

Not exactly sure what you are asking ?? The advanced track is a similar layout as your avavtar but with an extended section though one of the kidenys

It is so much fun

Ah i see that is becuase we have enough space at pod to ensure the newbs have loads of fun getting the basics sorted in the play pens and kidney track and still have plenty room allowing those with more experience to also develop some higher level skillz

We used the gymkhana track + an added extra manji and roundabout and got loads of quality seat time
