Brilliant days crack with some real tight battles, cheers to Con for settin it all up

After seein Pete in the Sil80 practicing, i was pissed off to hear your diff gave up and you didnt make it to qualifing, you had a couple of great practice laps with johnny irwin. really enjoyable to watch with some agressive entrys

Still cant believe it was a German final, The Jap lads are guna have to push harder next time

[aka pete]

Right lads first off a jus want to thank everybody who came down yesterday
Best days drifting a been too in a long time the new layout meant even a
Novice could drift the full track but only the very top class drivers
We're nailing the clipping points. Want to thank jim and Barry at northwestfest
For all the help and hard work setting up the drift day (and for the models which
We're very easy on the eye to say the least)
Want to thank the drivers who came hope everyone had their fill of track time
Had some seriously tight battles with the semis and final both going one more
Time
Sadly the rain jus wouldn't go away but it jus showed the crowd of spectators
The high standard of skill which the drivers have as most were going just as fast
(mental) in the wet an earlier in the dry
Shaun watt in his 4door m3 was our winner on the day and he by no means had
An easy run to the final beating paul Houston in an s15 then beating Harry k in his r33
Gts in an unreal tight battle Shaun then beat don Cochrane in a r33 gts to take him to
The final against Andy mc fettridge in another 4 door m3 (@ dori88 who also beat a list of
Ol japs lol )
The 2 cars sat door to door in the final and had to go one more time when on the 2nd run
The unbelievable grip of Shaun's m3 pulled a gap to give him a 6-4 win
Special thanks also to dori Rory dori 88 and to Pauric for being 100% fair in the judging
Even though it broke their heart ta see their beloved japs fall to ze Germans
Lol
Mac-c was also on top form showing serious amount skill twin drifting with anyone who was willing till a slight mishap by with another car ended his day also want to thank Andy for the long walk back to the pits lol
Met aka Pete yesterday man that's a savage lookin car hopefully by the end of the summer the big track will be open will keep all informed of the progress
Thanks again to everyone will stick up the exact placings and results later

This is drifting nobody started out brilliant far more b thought of ya for bringing a car a tryin if ur shite nobody will care ur welcome anytime cause there are more than enough people who would sit on with ya to get u the basics

[m3con]

Great track layout, tons of track time, brilliant set up. Well done to Con and crew.

I only got practice runs in the morning as I sprung a fuel leak somewhere around the tank, so I stopped to be better safe than sorry.

But i'll be back again for sure.

Looking forward to seeing the bigger track that the guys are working on, it just keeps getting better!

Thanks lad sorry for throwing ya in at the deepend by sending u out twining
I know ur not long at drifting but you done very well
