alright folks heard back today from the motor sports club and been told i can host a drifting day at the pits in portrush, its only a maybe yet as there is prob gana be loads to sort out but if anyone is interested please put your name below if we get enough folk then it should be cheap enough for a days sliding, i was over looking around the pits last week and i think we could set out a pretty good track, this would make a good practice day. :)
