Getting Started

[Kensti]

Hi, have joined to get all information about getting started in drifting.
Theres a couple of nice cars out there at the moment but i'm completely in the dark about how to get started....

What car is best to start with, wha sort of spec do ya need? what to look out for when buying in terms of rules and regulations? is there racing license needed? cost of events? and what series is best to enter in for the midlands...

Any help be appreciated lads..thanks

Best thing would be to use the search button with key words on what your looking for, as all those topics have been covered time and time again.

Welcome along anyway and best of luck with the search!

Cars can be got very cheap these days, maybe if you see one ask some of us to see what we think?
Nissan silvia's, skyline's are generally the most popular.
A track car can be bought for good money, and then you can bring it to Mondello or if the north is easier, Bishopscourt (Downpartick).

I agree the search function isnt the best but it did help....i think i was expecting to much starting off...way to go would be to start small i'm thinking a cheap bmw or something like a 325 or 328 that would have bit of power and wouldnt cost that much any opinions??? what are they like to take abuse???

[Kensti]

Although if right s13/14 came up for right money id have no problem going with something ready to drift staright away!
