Headed upto Norfolk Arena for Drift practice on saturday with my Mate Ross in his Banzai featured Nissan S14.3.

There wasn't much option to move as I had to stand in the arena with no protection barriers, I must be :cuckoo:

C&C welcome :thumbs:

That's an absolutely cracking set! Pick of the bunch for me has to be No.1 for the background...

I like that first one! With a bit of tyresmoke to finish it off it would be truly awesome. Well done!

Tyre smoke would of made it. The downside was the track was dusty in the morning (when that was taken) plus the tyres were a very hard compound so took about 4 hours to kill them lol.

The 2nd set of tyres didn't quite last so long though :eek:

Great shots!

Are the practice sessions advertised? I only ever see the race nights listed in advance.

I was ranging from 1/125th to 1/50th I think, can't remember exactly what that one was though.

Great shots!

Thanks.

These are practice days so are only advertised on the drifting websites. It would be unfair to advertise it to the public and get huge crowds in while drifters are learning and making lots of mistakes.

I'm tempted to get stuck in next time.
Great photos! #1 is awesome.
Thanks.

The car is incredible. I saw Ross building it and helped on a few bits and it came out really well. It goes very nicely too :).

I did manage to fall asleep in it on the way back though, despite there being an exhaust right behind me lol.
