BDC 09 is structured to take in both demanding 100mph tracks and smaller more technical venues. As a result, BDC 09 drivers will be tested, challenged and judged across all aspects of drifting competition.
BDC 09 Venues are also chosen with our spectators in mind. This years venues will offer a safe yet close-up view of all of the action and the 2009 BDC paddock will be arranged in order to invite our spectators to interact with teams, sponsors & drivers.
It is with great pleasure we can now reveal the dates of the BDC season 2009 and we look forward to seeing all of our teams at round 1 to kick-start what will be a historic year for British drifting.
Round 1 - 11th April Donnington Park – The Launch Pad
As one of the main attractions of the ITS (International Tuning Show) ISTS - International Styling & Tuning Show The BDC will be staging our first event on a purpose built track. This will allow us to create the perfect layout for record speed entries and fast flowing corners.
Britain’s new home of Formula 1 will witness a drifting competition unlike anything previously staged at this historic circuit.
Round 2 - 23rd May Llandow Circuit - South Wales
The BDC makes a welcome return to one of the driver’s favourite tracks of 2008. With a tight sections followed by fast flowing curves this venue has everything to test to our drivers.
Round 3 - 13th June Lydden Hill - Kent
The BDC returns to the fantastic venue of Lydden Hill in Kent. This venue saw the BDC host the first ever drift competition at this venue in 2008. The spectators will witness drivers battling for top honours on the fast hills of Lydden and the drivers will require every ounce of power and skill to master this demanding course.
Round 4 - 29/30/31st August - Norfolk Arena King Lynn (3 day drift extravaganza)
The smallest, but the most technical track on the BDC calendar will see drivers given more practice than has ever been known at a UK drift event. Battling inside the purpose built oval will generate an electric atmosphere with enthusiastic crowds just metres from the action. This event will offer three days of drift action. Friday will see the track open to all competing drivers as a full day of practice, Saturday evening will see the BDC Teams battling it out in front of the always excitable audience. The Pro class will be given Sunday all to themselves to prove they are the King of the Arena.

The BDC make a return to Llandow for the 2009 Season finale as part of a double header drift weekend.
