    If its your 1st Drift day make sure you read this thread by Paz :thumbs: Basic Drift Day Prep



    DWYB website : DWYB - Drift What Ya Brung


    FAQs



    How many tyres do i need ?
    Lots - rule of thumb as many as you can fit in car. There is nothing worse than being at drift day with a working car, empty track and no tyres


    Where can i get tyres from ? Rent spare rims ?
    Contact the chaps @ MINT TYRES.COM


    Can my mates come out for passenger rides ?
    Yup


    How much does it cost ?
    It costs £60 in advance per driver


    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 do not turn up. Advance tickets are £60 - Pay on day £70


    What will the weather be like ?
    Check - Farmers Guide Weather Forecast


    What happens if it rains ?
    DWYB will run regardless - you will use less tyres and more petrol


    I want to have a go at the EDC 08 track but not sure about it ? HELP!!!
    Just ask one of the marshals who will hold back the queue and let you out for a few laps at your own pace


    I cannot be bothered to read the 1st post so i'm going to ask a question that has been covered in the 1st post. I need the post count !!
    Please do not be shocked if you are teased as a result. Its all about the seat time , not the post count !1!11!!1


    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.

    :dw:

    Dazz150,

    What you have done elsewhere has no bearing on trying for an ODC shootout place at DWYB

    Anyone who has a DWYB licence will have the chance to

    A) Enter the DWYB comp at the end of the day
    B) qualify for a place in the upcoming ODC shootouts

    hope that clears it up for you

    cheers

    Lex
