weston super mare drift day, Book now!!

who were the big bouncer type looking guys?? looked really scary but were really nice sound guys. One of them was quite keen to put a camera in my car but i crashed at 2:45 and was unable to do it :(
 
They ran the burger van, they had some awesome security based cameras, like the headcams they had on all day, they had a jacket with a camera in it, and also the incar one which had an inside and outside cam. I got their contact details at the end of the day. If we can go back, they seemed really keen to help out and stuff.

The security guys are friends of ours, they sell the cameras if your interested in some, want a phone number for them?

Keep the feedback coming people, fingers crossed we will get an answer this coming week if we can hold another event at Weston.

Toilets will be trackside next time

i had a good day apart from the weather ( which can't be helped - was getting brawdy flashbacks lol )

in summary

track - DEFINATELY needs resurfacing before another event, but looked a good layout for both n00bies and veterans, altho my one concern was the big right hander into the straight - only a few cones in the way of oncoming cars if someones back end snaps in and sends them off to the right - potential for a big accident there...

Marshalls - you need more of them, and have them all round the track

Food - luminous ketchup anyone ??!

people - friendly :D

needs toilets !!!

A good effort by the organizers tho, hopefully they give the go ahead for many more events !

Does anyone know where the security guys footage is going to be? I was talking to them for abit and they got some of me in the play pen that i would like to see.

I thought the exact same thing!Think they'd have to move the start line back if you used it:D.Would need one hell of a wide track too.

There was also a couple of bmw's in a fenced off area that looked "played with". A grey/silver E30 and E36.
 
I got sum footage on my bullet cam - not great mind - an awful lot of mud getting kicked up, the rain wasnt a problem though. Also have evidece of the missus hitting a cone head on which explains the crease in my front splitter.

Annoyingly enough I caught a cone with the camera (Not the car) which would have looked cool playing that back but the bloody battery went flat just before I started that run!
 
Would people be able to put any footage that they got onto CDs possibly fr me to use please? I didn't get much track footage because of the rain, and any bulletcam/incar stuff would be greatly appreciated too. Also, your names will go in the credits!
 
I've got 50 odd mins of raw footage from the bullet cam and about 3mins of mobilephone vids. I'll clear sum space to digitise it and stick it on a CD when I find my DV cable! PM Me ur address mate :thumbs:
 
Didn't realy get any decent incar footage (mainly because the car wasn't wanting to play ball!), ill check if any I did get is any good.
 
Two friends that came to spectate took SLR cameras.I know one of them had over 700 pics from the day and the other wasn't far behind. They are processing them this week so will be sure to link you guys up.

There will also be some video footage coming soon.
 
big thanks to all! great day. ive got a lot to learn! bigger play pens needed i think.

met loads of great people :thumbs:hope you get the go ahead for another one.
