Hello family,

I did my second OPT drift club day at silverstone today Big Grin

It was freezing cold - grip was low and the hachi was loving it (oh and me too). Really hooked up some nice things today and made loads of progress. I got my clubman license too which I am real pleased about Hurray! I really honestly didn't think I could be that consistent to do it. My fave moment of today was hooking up 9 laps of the figure of 8 in one drift. I know its not much but it felt amazing.

Massive thanks to all involved. Respect!

As the piccies come in from the driftworks family members in I'll post them here.

Congrats man, looking good!
The figure 8 does feel great when you get the flow of it if you know what I mean!
Wish I could have made it! Sad

I know exactly what you mean man.

Wish you could have been there rikard - all the circuits were laid out in the other carpark this time - and i don't know if it was just me but the surface seemed loads more slidey even in the dry - guess it was because everything was freezing cold.
Regards Ian.
