My sierra drift car

[sideways_madness]

I've been following drifting for quite a while now, mainly pro drift.
So I thought it was time to give it a go myself.
I started off building an ae86 corolla then got side tracked with my buggy/gokart project.
The buggy got finished an corolla still left as it is for now.

That's when the sierra project started, I had all the bits I needed to build the car gathered up so decided to go ahead an get started. I started off with a shell I had from an old 2.0 twincam I broke and a 24v Granada I was driving up until the mot was up. I stripped the Granada and built all into the sierra.
I forgot to take some pics of the build along the way but have pics from when I was making the roll cage

The start of the cage

So had my first drift day in it on Saturday there.
First lap ok
Second lap struggled to get gears, lost clutch in middle of transition an ended up on a lorry tyre wall.
It didn't help that front wheels were rubbing inner wings causing her to flick the backend around even quicker.
Ended up resulting in who doors being pushed in and a broken rear bumper.
