Agree with the OP in a way... I mean there's idiotic driving and then there's going around a slow a** driver in the overtaking lane

I doubt any of us are pure angel drivers but there is definitely a difference in being a little bit cheeky and just out right dangerous

Did the Op show footage I must have missed it. 

Can we just get the IDX with a manual and I'll be happy 

If there is room to tank it down the middle lane there is room for everyone in lane 3 to move left.

I have just watched a pod cast from the guys that run driftland and from the sounds of it most places are trying to discurage people with bangers learning to drift on their tracks. They prefer people to have half decent cars that they look after to avoid attracting yobs who smash into other people without a care. The only problem is as you say people have to start somewhere and no point spending a fortune if you end up disliking it.

You might want to try a stock car track? If not an old runway, you might find some places are known for certain things but put on drift days too (crail being one up in scotland).

There is a difference between stock e36 with a welded diff and something that the local banger boys found in the yard. Basically it should be road worthy which tbh any car going on track should be. 

Yup that worked a treat 

I can't get code to work?

Once a knob, always a knob 

Drifting in the south is dieing fast most practise day locations left are North of brum .To my knowledge your closest would be santa pod for the type of day your looking with pens to learn your craft as such. 

@Docrwa might know more dunno if matchams still runs but I belive that was a banger track which you want to avoid anyway and I don't blame you

You've either got full tracks like 3 sisters Pembrey teesside or banger racing dressed up as drifting at Buxton Birmingham wheels etc

Rock outer paddock days were a great learning place as is pod with little to hit but Rockingham is now unlikely to be with us much longer and pod Is well pod 

nismo has just been a trim level for years now. 

Nothing Motorsport or heritage about it

i think it'd be nice if a car is appreciated for what it is, rather than what it's not compared to another car. 

Ugly and expensive? 

Curious what size wheel the 2.7 you've tried have had see a few for sale with massive 19s etc and I'm sure they only help. If feel sluggish 

Was thinking pod has opportunities for everyone to get involved 

Show

Drag

Handling track

Drift 

Not stepping on toes but could all the z clubs get together hire santa pod for a day? 

 BUMP

How much does the aventadors svj weight? 

I've had track days on a single as did GrunDy when he was with us 

Yes and yes 

£575

the same team didnt come out in the 2nd half

Just be aware of the massive dynamic shift you've made by running same size tyres front to rear, as in be alert for snap oversteer. IMHO bin/flog them and do it properly, don't risk your whole car (and have to twinkle around!) for the sake of a set of rubber.

 

30mm should be fine without needing arms, but every car is fractionally different. I'd feel comfortable going with that though.

pfffft snap oversteer  

Jesus that's hideous in them pics
