like derek said above. every 6-8 weeks this is ran all year around and its cheaper than drift fest its a bigger track than drift fest and more seat time its a win win all round
looking forward to going would it be possible to go and pay on the day i dont wanna bother going if its snowin and by the looks of things theres a good chance it will be
Doesnt look like itl be snowing for this,forecasted weather for christmas day is like 10 degrees,so if thats true ill defo be goin!

sounds to me like your bitter over them running it lad..??
as its gonna take some people away from ye..
90% of the drift fest is Munster origin anyway:wink:
MONDELLO is handy for alot of lads as its central in the country..
WGH is awesome.. dont get me wrong and its great to see it back opened..
think the more tracks and yards and carparks opened around ireland for drifting is better imo...
the driving last year was AMAZING.. and thats all cause of the likes of MONDELLO,PORTLAOISE,
M1 DRIFTING STONES AND TULLOW opening there doors to them.....
and im not trying to have a go at you here..
its the truth...

We all go to practice an have some fun.But some ppl don't know there limits.plus Mondello have a lot 2 answer for letting 30plus cars on track at the one time. Complete mayhem in my opinion.its not fair to have a new comer(novice) in a group off fellas that are in Mondello every drift day.it puts unnecessary pressure on them. Just my 2 cents worth.

Yeah but if you do that give it a month or two and people will want lesser powered cars in another group

Totally disagree there. It's nothing got to do with bhp. It's whether u can steer or not. There was a fella in a 87 cam yesterday(don't know his name) but Fuk me he is an awesome pilot.n/a an he was all over the sr's. So totally wouldn't agree with u tweek.

for my first time on the track there was alot of presure but i suppose been in the deep end was good .. constantly lookin behind you incase theres a pack of cars up ur hole that didn help do ,is there usually less cars out?
thats young harte, a hum dinger ,,,,
First day there aswel tiught it was brilliant.. Takes time to get used to the track but getting there.. Defo go back :)

Listen. I went as a spectator.
Mondello is a perfect place but fuck me something needs to sharpen up.
Bkiely there, first time out, and I'm getting the impression he thought he was the one that thought he should be sorry for holding people up...
Now this lad, who goes to a 'drift practice day'.. and in fairness lad, you did no wrong. You might have thought you were spinning out a bit much or getting in peoples way, but thats bullshit. There were lads driving like they were fuckin Chuck Norris when they couldnt drive there finger up their hole.
They were doing more in terms of holding people up and just being a danger to themselves as well as the rest of you than any novice could.
(Incase anyone thinks i'm on about the two lads in the 86's being up in round peoples business into the first corner,... i'm not. They can drive, and they need the speed into the first corner, they know what to do and what not to do... unlike others.)
I am however on about the people believing that its a race day and the first one to the finish line gets to be king of the castle.
There is putting people under pressure, thats alright, but then there's just being a gobshite.
Don't know how some people were let drive a car, nevermind be on a racetrack with other people.

Does'nt matter what power you have if your only starting out been in front of PD/mondello regulars is daunting and you will make mistakes tweek, think everyone who has done mondello will agree that there should be a novice and pro group..

When it comes to drifting we're all novices! Not about seperating really, just need to keep an eye on people and stay back if you think you can't react fast enough.

There was one person that stood out. Everyone else was fine.
The heur just needs to chill the fuck out and quit being a lunatic behind the wheel.
the day is for practicing, novice or pro everybody needs it,one or two guys were not thinking of anyone else out there,on more than one occassion when a flag was out on pit straight the dude in the black s14 with blue visor went past us at the speed of light,this is not on,maybe your the best drifter in the world but a bit of common sense and heed in breifing may not scare the sh1t out of others,the 2 cars in front of me had to go of track at honda corner over you,learn to be patient behind the wheel,and the guy in the white twincam saloon,you ar exellent at what you do manji and all that ,but just check your mirrors every now and again as there was a tail back behind you for 5-6 laps.i aint looking for enemys just being honest,as for the new guy fair play first day out an it was well wet there,everyone spun there on friday,and go at the speed your comfortable at,great to see amys car run well fair play

Well said
My new years resolution is to make the journey to mondello with the m3
Everyone a have ever been speekin to about it rates it second to none but
A believed this to be a proper race circuit
And everyone up this end of the country hasn't got anything even half as good but
By the sounds of things a prob be asked to leave after a short space of time leebo
Was gettin flagged for going too close to the wall the banning stick was called for
Cause lads were manji the straight now said driver in s14 with blue visor is gettin
A touch for going fast and scaring other drivers . This is why it's so hard ta get on
In this country it's full of feckin criers and complainers

Yes, there were a few numpties out there alright... What is the fascination with drifting the straight???? Seriously!!!
One particular guy would hold everyone up "drifting" the two straights (up to Dunlop and the main straight), and then not even drift the actual corners or else he would spin in each corner.... I'm pretty sure thats how NOT to do a drift day, but sure I've only been going to Mondello since they started the drift days, so what would I know :rolleyes::p
I heard it was Amy's fault ??

i was just saying about the safety aspect,ive being in motorsport for near on 18 years from karting to rallying and recently drifting,i have 3 kids a morgage and a missus,i work cause i have to,as we all no insurance dont cover track days or motorsport so if i or u were to get hurt on track and out of work for a couple of weeks-months i would have to sell alot of stuff to feed the above,this i dont want to do over some numtey that thinks they are invinsable,thats all just a bit of sense when on track,ta
