drift days, places to learn etc?

You gotta pay to play. Not uncommon to hear of some Scottish lads driving 7/8 hours each way to get to events. People down south moan about having to drive 2 hours to an event LMAO. (as an example).

Teesside for me was like 6/7 hours each way.. So, just get on with it. Plenty tracks, hell drive up to crail and practice on the oval like many southern guys do, £10 to get in, £5 to drift for a day on the oval. I had like 8 or 9 runs, not bad for the money tbh. Tie that in with a driftland experience day (Where you can be taught by Jeek and Kyle etc) and you have a full weekend of drifting, on the cheapest track in the UK (Crail) and also the best track in the UK for drifting (Driftland).

No brainer really. Sure you cant do that all the time however it would be enough to get some basics under your belt and boost that confidence to get out on closer tracks.

I recently did 10 hours each way (including stops) to Driftland for round 1 of RDC and it's definitely worth the massive trip. I'd recommend a trip up there to anyone. I plan on going at least once a year from now on.

Quote"Thats the one I am looking at now.... The issue is 1h 15 drive in rush hour to get there on time, so may spend the night there, but definitely on the list. Good place to learn?"
I used andys drift school at bovingdon and I live in greater South London hour and a half drive easy to find, tutors are awesome all pro and super pro drivers! From memory it's not far from jct 20. Did the £60 half day and thought it was good value really and a nice confidence building exercise!

Good to know, thanks.... More than likely booking a day up there to get some confidence and then I should be able to take my car to the RWYB days.
