Did my first drift day in the E30 on new years eve at Teesside Autrodome. The track banned drifting due to noise approx 3 years ago when i was just getting into drifting so never got the chance to drift there. Fortunately they've just started to allow drift days back there, so i had to get myself there for the first one and first time out in the e30.

Here are some pics of my e30 from the day and a little vid.

Cheers people!

@ choppa- While drifting at Teesside was off i mainly went to dwyb days at Pod, then drift days at Blyton test track started once a month so went to those when i could afford it as its alot closer than pod. This year going to try get to Buxton drift days, Mallory park and Teesside again.

Your only aloud to drift the section what you see in the video clip, there is another section of track which they will be using on the next drift day there and spliting the day up so you can drift one part morning, the other in the afternoon.

Ill have a look for some more vid clips, got an in car one ill put up.

Im just outside Pontefract in w.yorks.

I remember your thread tomae when you bought the car, nice efforts!
How do you pronounce 'either'? I say 'either', but some say 'either'. Either is correct.
