ah these tings are bound to happen in fairness ted i just have bad look to happen twice but ye even if there was a way of seeding the drivers or a way to asses driver ability and then put them into groups at least that way some silly things like that can be avoided its very hard to full commit ur self to a bend up there wen ur afraid of were the lad in front is going to end up before, mid way or after the bend.

17-08-09, 17:49

I seen your off................ you were lucky it wasnt worse, also seen the blue car on mondello straight infront of you and off on most corners, vid turned out well. Ill edit and upload it tomorrow and put a link up. There was some people out and they spun on most corners for the whole day, i had thought a basic course before a drift practice day would be a good idea, but then mondello wouldnt do so well probly. Most drivers were good, only 3 or so spinning out on corners. Always wondered does it effect the other drivers day much when they are going good and come up behind a spinner.........................

sure does effect ya i dont think i drove well after da crash as ul see in the video i held back a good bit if there was someone in front ur even more conscious of wat he is gonna do or were he is gonna end up.

if your worried about the driver in front, drop back abit its not rocket science give him space and time to make mistakes and correct and get out of the way. driving up there arse is only going to put pressure on them and leave them more likely to make mistakes.... unfortunately not every body is a DRIFT ADONIS and thats what drift practice days are for and what there all about. its comments like these that put people off giving it a go. lighten up this whole drifting thing is supposed to be fun......
rant over.......:p

Hahaha i think it then u type it lol:D But yeh there was groups of 4 and 5 cars coming up to the same corner then huge gap to next car.. Did'nt bother me tbh but yeh id see how it would put sum people off...

Dreamworks-silvia
18-08-09, 15:35
I take it ur talking from experince of doing practice days in mondello and not ones of nuts corner because i doubt you could compare the two, dont get me wrong i love it and would encourage everyone to give it a go and yes its very easy to say its not rocket science to stay back but its a totally different wen your out on the track with 20 other cars alot of its third gear stuff which has ya carryin fast pace ya might think there is no one in front till the last second wen ya see them facing the wrong direction, i sure didnt think there was anyone in front of me wen i came up over the hill and had my off im not havin a rant or givin out bout it just dont think its fair to say its not rocket science to stay back think dats a fairly obious thing to do:rolleyes:

18-08-09, 18:15
its impossible to stay back as so many cars on track also when drifting in third u catch the slower cars very quick and if u stay back your also gonna be holding people up also the people tat come up flashing the lights behind u should be kicked off imo as its fierce nerve wrecking on the driver in front one person out there does it at every track day im out he wasnt at the last one thou

Amy G
19-08-09, 08:52
Mmmmm, its called ''Drift Practice'' day..... Its NOT a Race people...
So many idiots go speeding down the straight and don't give there cars a chance to cool down and let some air in... :(
But Mondello were letting way too many out in each group, especially at the start of the day, there was 20+ cars on track. Which is just wrong... End of the day, when people were leaving was much quieter and less cars in the gravel :rolleyes:

There should be a limit to the amount of cars out in each session or at least let people out in short intervals instead of everyone just piling into the first corner ..........

There's a blue flag to warn of faster drivers approaching so thats when your supposed to pull over, although thats not easy mid-drift!

I found i had to go flat out up the straight to get away from some other drivers and have some room for myself..

They do split up the groups but maybe the should try figure out a way to split it up into cabalities, not easy though but i'm sure they could try!

Take it easy lads!!

First of all, alota people on here are beginers and they're not gonna have experience so there's no need to slate someone because of they're lack of it..

Ya cant expect people to know the flags if they've never been shown but as Paul said, he'll now make sure he's on time to get to the briefing, which mondello should have informed you of also and things should be that bit clearer!!

Thanks Stevo for the flag info too!

To be fair dude everytime u ring to book in for anything at mondello u are told to be there at watever time for "sign on and Briefing" if ur late thats ur problem but u shouldnt be late if ur taking the whole thing seriously,its a matter of saftey,he shouldnt have been allowed out and he shouldnt have gone out without knowing the basic flag meanings its to dangerous,imagine he came flat out around a turn where there was waved yellows and smacked into a marshall or that,its to dangerous,i agree with mick on this one,if ur going on track,be there for briefing or at least find out or ask someone wat the flags and that mean for ur safety and more importantly others.

Yeah i agree totally that someone shouldnt have been allowed out on track not knowing the flags but that was partly mondello's fault, they should only give out the bands straight after briefing or something, that should eliminate this problem!

He's defo not the only one i know thats been allowed out not knowing the flags! You know yourself, it seems alot of people dont know what the flags are for!!

Let me lay it out.

Conor has an off just through the whole in the hedge and Im the next car coming,Im at honda and dont know the flags and theres a red flag showing,So Im coming balls out from honda,Flick on turn 2 and head for the hole in the hedge and cant see conor the far side,Come round in 3 pullin 70mph,Straight into the side of Conors car and all because I dont know the flags.....
I think theres very much 2 people at fault alright,75 percent me for not making mondello aware I dont know them and 25 percent mondello for not checking.



PS,Conor wouldnt have an off,Isnt that right Conor

20-08-09, 12:04
Haha yeah, ah we all know what the craic is if people dont know the flags,
but in all honestly, if someone didnt know what a flag meant and they saw one been waved frantically, especially a RED one i'm sure most would slow down! least i hope they would:eek:

Firstly i think mondello would welcome u into the briefing room at anytime of the day if u was late for the main one because they have to cos its nott allowed have drivers on track that are not briefed so next time someone is late go to a marshall and get briefed,especially if u dont know the flags and rules.

Mmmmm, its called ''Drift Practice'' day..... Its NOT a Race people...
So many idiots go speeding down the straight and don't give there cars a chance to cool down and let some air in... :(
But Mondello were letting way too many out in each group, especially at the start of the day, there was 20+ cars on track. Which is just wrong... End of the day, when people were leaving was much quieter and less cars in the gravel :rolleyes:
i speed up on the straight one to leave room between me and all the cars behind me and not be holding them up;)also i like taking tat corner at a nice speedbuild up to make it easier to do the next corner in third before the hole in the hedge:)

Anyone we know Podge:p;)
not barry ted white s14

well said podge.. just think mondello should put it into groups or something...
cause last time i was there the yellow flag was been shown on nearly every corner:rolleyes:
the only way id imagion groups would work is if 20 of us approach mondello before hand wit a group of names u want in the one group mondello is there to make money not seperate good drivers from bad;)

There's a blue flag to warn of faster drivers approaching so thats when your supposed to pull over, although thats not easy mid-drift!

I found i had to go flat out up the straight to get away from some other drivers and have some room for myself..

They do split up the groups but maybe the should try figure out a way to split it up into cabalities, not easy though but i'm sure they could try!

ive never seen a blue flag raised yet and ive done them all bar the first one tats the reason i speed along the straight as well dont always work thou as some drivers use it as a drag race lol
