Drift What Ya Brung
Discussion
So I had the day off today and decided to go have a butchers at this event. It gets ridiculously busy on the few Saturdays they do it on, so I opted for the Wednesday in the hope I'd be allowed to go to some naughty places nearer the track. The marshals didn't seem to mind as I was obviously taking pictures and they let me get perhaps a little too close at times 
A nice surge of adrenaline once or twice when a tyre blew out on the corner I was on towards the end.
It turns out, pan photography of drifting is a lot harder than normal racing, something which seems obvious now but I wasn't expecting. Positioning is crucial. Nevermind, here's what I got. There were a few too many to flood the Random Photos thread so I thought I'd start one. Click for full size.
C&C welcome, although not too harsh, they aren't as good as I'd hoped

Nice, I especially like the one of the blown tyre with the Supra snaking off into the distance.
Cheers Ad, yeah that was a little closer than I wanted Dudd said:
I'm loving the M3, clearly a company car!
Haha I hadn't though of that, I bet it was! No wonder he took the plates off. He had quite a few sets of tyres with him too!JJM said:
Great shots, where was the drift day?
Cheers. It's at Santa Pod in Northampton. It's called Drift What Ya Brung and they run it a couple of times a month. No wonder the Saturday events sell out, it got pretty busy on just any ol' Wednesday.
