JohnJ · 11-07-2009, 19:57

Hi,

Thanks to all who came today, sorry about wetting the track, I did try not to by trying to get people to try different tyre pressures etc but in the end it was so noisy I had to wet it.

If you want to make loads of noise come to Buxton!!

John.

mike_s14 · 11-07-2009, 20:05

Had a great day at my first drift day, very tricky when wetted but got the skill levels up

Weird how some cars especially the red s14a made loads of tyre squeel on standard rims tho

Will come upto Buxton as I'm only down the road

JAMIN · 11-07-2009, 20:20

thanks for such a good day.

i found that when it was wet it made it easyer for me to drift.

thanks from ben

Joe-sef · 12-07-2009, 08:37

yeah thanks John, sorry about the tyre squeeel... i was abit sceptical about what it would be like, but in the end i loved it, the track you were doing the drift one stuff on, in the dry is epic, no doubt so fun. the armco is legendry anyone that doesnt like that course just aint doing it properly, Mark jeffers was out with me for the last 30 min and im sure he will agree! i only went on the other course when it was wet really, had loads of trouble in the wet... it was on the other track where i smahed it up.. twice but i understand fully the reasoning, its just a shame... ill deffo be going again, should have it half price for people who just want to use the one track :P

edit :

love the hidous entry's capable into the hair pin, and managed to get a wall scrape!

p.s did anyone get ne pics?

Glad you had a good day, saw you slinging it into that hairpin!

There were a couple of people taking pictures, nothing to do with us though.

Maybe ask on the XR2 racing site forum. (They were racing yesterday).

I think we're going to try and hire just the one stage at some point to do some of the experiences. If we do there will be a very limited no of places available, 8 or so, so I'll let you know.

John.

Fantastic day as always...Really enjoyed myself, have had 2.5 drift days experience now and its starting to feel good. I am thinking that the car has really helped - i can't thank John enough for his basic "Poormans Guide to drifting" Its an ebay bucket seat and steering wheel, oxy off the bottom coils of your springs and pay a mate to weld up the diff and off you go.....Once i've stopped hitting all the cones and bollards i might treat the car to some new paint work...

I Loved the wet track and felt it was ideal for learning on, if your not smooth your off the track so not much room for errors...

PS...S13's RULE !!!!!!!!!
