| Drifting History: | I watched the final round of the autoglym club class in 2004, and went straight out and brought a Nissan 200sx s13 with my mate Graham and started attending DriftUK Practice days. Been Drifting ever since. Then I imported a Nissan 180sx, and attended the 2006 EuroDrift championships in club class, and had the chance to use some really great tracks, This opened my eyes to higher speed drifting and I have been practicing this format when ever possible. I spend some serious time over winter 2006 preping the 180sx to a much higher standard which has produced an ideal Drift tool for 2007. 2007 was a great year for my drifting. Entering Eurodrift Pro Class meant I had to raise my game! And Driving with some really top class drivers in 2007 really helped develop my drifting skills. Finished 4th Overall Eurodrift proclass and 3rd British Open Championship Proclass. 2008 I hope to drift with Europe's Best! The car in undergoing some serious prep, I have been developing some topsecret parts and with a major engine rebuild and deveolpment should be a great 2008! |
