Hi, just wondering if anyone was there and took some pics of the cars on the rally stages (on the MSV Introduction to Drifting course). I was there in a Z4M Coupe but didn't have anyone with me to take pics (boo hoo!), so would love some pictures if anyone has some....

Chance are they'll be of me facing the wrong way on the grass, rather than smoothly powersliding round the corner, but hey you never know.

By the way, great fun if anyone is thinking of doing it.

Thanks in advance.

I was the marshal on the start of stage 2 for that day smile Hope you had a great day, you seemed to be going very well!

There was a guy in a blackboard colured MX5 with PH stickers all over it and his mate had a camera smile They might have got something smile

That'll be us smile

Not sure what we have on video- will have a look later. We didn't take any stills unfortunately.

That Z4m looked a bit of a handful- the M cars usually drift quite nicely with the LSD's

You looked like you had a good day regardless smile

Oh cheers, anything you have would be great! Z4M definitely was a handful, although i think most of the problem lies with my abilities, or lack of. Never done anything like that so it took a while to get into it, but was great fun. Think I averaged at least 1 spin per lap, but well worth it for the odd controlled slide i managed towards the end - very high grin factor!

Matt black paint on the mx5 looked awesome....

Which one was stage 2? through the trees, or the open one? Had a superb day, you might have guessed as I was still hooning round at 4pm after most had left. Have to say was a very well run day, 10 min briefing followed by 6 hours of free access to the 2 courses, and instructors on hand for free tuition.

And i didn't munch the tyres either.

Hi Simon, did you have any luck finding any footage or pics?

Or anyone else for that matter?
