@ Driftfest

I'm not sure that would be possible this year
as all the dates and locations have bee allocated
Eg. Round 2 of the N1 Drift Series is being held on
the same weekend as your own event

Maybe next year

Hey all, just to clarify our earlier post. We're welcoming N1 competitors to our events and special rates are available. However, please support your local Drift Organisation first and foremost. We will also encourage our drivers to compete in N1 :)

As for the comment about using one of your venues, we intend to work closely with you to facilitate this and to prevent potential date clashes as it's in the interest of drifting as a whole. We look forward to seeing you at drift events this year. It's looking like it's going to be the best year yet!

That's a fantastic offer you made to drivers from the n1 drift series am sure if and when some of the guys get the opertunity to travel down to an event would be very grateful of the €60 discount but you
Possibly might consider applying that discount to the drivers who have participated in your practice days and have supported you from the start
But thats Just my thoughts lol that would be entirely your own decision

Driftfest

23-02-13, 20:04

We do offer reduced rates, that's why we're popular!

Had a fantastic day everything went well and i think everyone has a great day
@ pete it was actual a top 4 m3 finish ;). The day went fairly hitch free except
Young Evan who had a bit of a moment
http://i1267.photobucket.com/albums/jj541/continney/09A85257-3AF1-4F29-8CE3-525AB9D686FF-3866-0000048B4A651F31.jpg

This was the first mistake he made all day after having qualified first
Ahead of all the more experienced drivers. This was Evans first ever drift
Event. He is only 15!! Driving his n/a supra to its limits
By the time qualifying came round we were down to 23 cars between breakdowns and non -runners one of which was and m3 owned by Daryl
Barnett whose gearbox broke leaving him with only 4th gear. But Daryl being
Daryl carried on and not only managed to qualified but made it through to the
Quarter finals. An absolute legend of a man

And this is how each driver progressed

The battles were immense with a number of battles
Having to be run numerous times

its kinda funny cause the person who (quite possibly will read this and hope he does) said that eglington was a micky mouse track is possibly now realising that its not so micky mouse at all any more. its only going to get better. big entry numbers. fast track .well run . . . gota love key board wars lol. . total credit to the N1 guys. .and as some people know the best is yet to come.
keep it up.
