    Dfs in Poole is where you will find the "drifters" on weekend nights, they normally go to smeatharpe in Devon and weatonzoyland in somerset

    I'm from bournemouth way bud.
    There's nowhere to skid around here other than matchums on the odd Wednesday night!
    As said above, most from round here travel to practice days

    People normally travel to Pod or Lydden Hill.

    There is a petition going round on facebook for a place to drift in the south but I'm not sure how it is progressing

    yeah there isnt much round here, matchams is ok but never has a tyre van when ever I have been. Shame as its only down the road from me. Good for testing the car.

    Hello Drifters! If anyone needs tyres for drift, You are welcome to collect them for free from my tyre shop in Christchurch. 15" 16" 17" 18" some of them have bulges on a side wall, worn on one side or just perished rubber. Can fit them as well. Cheers!
