[m3con]

could all drivers attending drift days please ensure they are using the correct
spacers and wheel studs to suit their car or at least ensure wheels studs
are tight. the picture shows the result of wrung wheel nuts on studs that were too short the wheel went under the car shooting the car straight up in the air very lucky to land on its remaining wheels

[driftfan]

he was a lucky man!! just thinkin by spending an extra 20-30 quid on longer wheel nuts etc that shouldnt happen and could save you more money in the long run!

[karglass]

[jasy d]

he was some height off the ground prob needs a front mount aswel he prob thought he was in a ejector seat :)
