Please read these before posting a question that is answered below
How many tyres do i need ?
Lots - rule of thumb as many as you can fit in car. There is nothing worse than being at drift day with a working car, empty track and no tyres
Where can i get tyres from ? Rent spare rims ?
Contact Steve @ MINT TYRES
Can my mates come out for passenger rides ?
Yup - they must wear a seat belt and be signed on which is free for passengers
How much does it cost ?
It costs £80 per driver
Can I pay on the day ?
No.
Is it fully booked yet ?
Click here >> Santa Pod Ticket Shop if "Drift Voucher" is not listed is has sold out
Help it has sold out - what do I do ?
Book for the next one
Doh it has sold out can I add my name to the reserve list please ?
No. There is no reserve list.
Help my car has died / i got arrested / my GF is expecting / i crashed so i cannot make it - what should i do ?
Phone the pod booking office to arrange to get a credit for a future DWYB
What will the weather be like ?
Check - Weather Forecast
What happens if it rains ?
DWYB will run regardless - you will use less tyres and more petrol
I want to have a go at the EDC 08 track but not sure about it ? HELP!!!
Just ask one of the marshals who will hold back the queue and let you out for a few laps at your own pace
My car is ridiculously noisy what happens if i get told it is too loud to drift ?
You will be given a credit for another day
DWYBs keep selling out weeks in advance why don't Pod put on more dates ?
The number of noisy days has been agreed with the local council
I cannot be bothered to read the 1st post so i'm going to ask a question that has been covered in the 1st post. I need the post count !!
Its all about the seat time , not the post count !1!11!!1
Do i need a welded diff / Fancy JDM 2-way ?
a diff that locks both wheels will help - however it is not vital for you to come along and have FUN
Do I need lots of power/ Stage6.9chip/ SuperDuperHybridTurbo/ 2JZ
Nope.
