Is the track just round the stock car track? Or is there a nice long straight bit for a 1/4 mile?
Don't fancy putting mine into a wall.

It is the oval race track being used.
Unfortunately there is no quarter mile straight

I used to love this piece of cheap chavvy fun. Very likely to make an appearance. If you see the grey Corrado parked on that's me! Won't be on track... no bravery...

No helmets needed, We are going to try cat and mouse 2 at a time, burnouts, show n shine, drift offs, with the drifters this can be a max of 6 at a time, old driftboxes can drift together and more experienced can drift together, will try some timed laps etc.. so really need drivers to commit to coming on track.

Get rid of the crap distorted music for starters. Get on to the drift forums and see if you can get a few proper drift cars down there, like there used to be.

Music is being sorted smile
Sound system unfortunately is 20 years old so cant do too much with it.

got some decent ICE attending the next event.

We have already posted on driftworks and Trampdrift the two biggest sites.
it was our first event so things can only get better.

if you have a car then feel free to drift away smile

thanks sean
