Looking to start 'properly' - Drifting forum

Angel · 25-07-2008, 17:03

Hi all,
I'm new to driftworks and to drifting as a whole and was wondering if there was a 'cheap' way to start and learn to drift.

I'm male, 18 and with one years NCB so i'm limited on engine size, and i'm also skint untill I sell my last project.

Was thinking mk1 MR2 sort of thing, or an s13 would be great if i could afford and insure it. But i'm pretty much open to anything, it would be my daily driver aswell.

I think thats about it, Oh and if anyone wants a 95% finished classic mini let me know.

welcome to

can i suggest a seach as your Q has been covered many times by chaps in a very similar boat to you

a volvo or e30 BMW are one of the favoured solutions for younger chaps wanting a 1st taste of rwd fun on a budget

Im 18 and have an s13, but they quoted me 4k insurance for it. so now its track only and has to be trailered to the track. So what get a quote before you get the car
