Hello all 
LEGENDARY forum, have been on here a quite a few times but only just registered.
Had a great time with Drift One this weekend on their drift course at Oulten Park. It has seriously given me the bug and am very keen to buy a banger and get to some practice events!! Drove quite a few cars with them on Saturday - S13, 330ci, turbo'd mx-5 and 350z.
LOVED the 350z and found this really forgiving which was useful due to my severe lack of talent!! Didn't get on too well with the mx-5, despite not really being able to fit in it, they're also pretty snappy (especially when you tend to bang your foot down heavily
).
Looking at getting something pretty cheap as a second car for the purpose. 350z would be lovely but cannot afford one
. Was thinking beemer 3 series / 5 series but they're not as cheap as I thought, many I have looked at are around £1500 upwards which isn't great if I total it on the first event!
Just seen a 2.5 Omega GLS for £950. Will hopefully go and have a look at it this week. Wanted to know what people's thoughts are on these? Good? Bad? Unsure whether it has a LSD - if not, does anyone know where I can get a diff welded near Northampton?
Great to be on the forum guys - hope to catch some of you soon.
Thanks.
Phil
