lads would ye relax on him.its an idea he was thinking of and asked for advice/info....is the site not made for info/help with anything drift related?
tbh man.i would LOVE something in kerry but i think it would be a complete non runner..wouldnt get around legal/costs/complaints etc
the likes of driftfest etc are the best bet really and think i heard there testing somewhere in kerry for a track?
my 2c anyway
As much as they hate it on here ya have to have diffin days and other such
Events as drifting alone will not cover it private hire and other types of racing
Need to b able to use it people on here seem to think
These places build and maintain themselves if ur planning something try and
Accommodate as many different sports as possible and remember
It only takes one arsehole to make a noise complaint and then the council will
Make life very difficult for ya so choose your location very carefully
I think this would need to be a full time gig, with real investment and no half measures. There are plenty of things like karting, driving schools, advanced driving lessons, drift sessions, practice, competition, drag racing, car trials, etc.
You'd have to be aware of complaints, probably have to close at strict hours.
I just want to know more about the intricacies. Maybe people just assume this is an impossible feat and never attempt it as a result![]()
Tbh you'd be better off with a good track rather than a 'slap' that way you can run karting on weekdays or days there is no drifting or any thing going on. Good idea tho.
So really you want to know how to go about it?
1. Find a venue...this will help http://www.driftireland.com/forum/sh...ad.php?t=22418
2. Buy it with all your money and money from various investors
3. Sort out insurance , planning permission if you need to build/add to your venue
4. Are you planning on asking people to bring there own cars or are you going to buy these with all your money aswell?
5. Youl also need instructors for the advanced angles you plan to have going on at this venue
6. and so on...!
Is this the kind of thing your thinking?
Let's go Drifting
That was meant to be 20,000 not 2.
For it to be feasible it would need to be full time and multi use to be sustainable.
Something like wategrasshill, but a big square of concrete for more room practising.
karting, drifting, drivers ed and more could be done.
However i dont think the population is big enough even using it for differnet things
