A request; please can you post any vids and pics of drifting cosworths, either competing in the UK series taking place or abroad thanks Mark.

 

Don't think you'll get many takers on this one mate!

I'd like to see a few though!

 

As most of my clips are midway through a long vid I will put these up then, its a start;
Sapphire cossie in the gravel, (good start)

and one of the SEC drift cossies, doing what they do;

this one is more like it, sapphires look too high though compared to Jap coupes, sx etc

Do a search for Rudd Racing's car mate, Youtube/Google/Streetfire.net etc will have them I expect, awesome car and proper proper dirfting all the way round Rudskogen (sp) Circuit!

 

seen those utube vids

 

Ive never ever eeeever (i dont think ) seen any drifting from a cossie that was anything but power oversteer, so would be nice to see some proper stuff where they coming into the corner sideways rather than booting it halfway thru and then keeping the tyres lit from then on.

So look forward to some vids, if they exist...

 

Andy G at Gatebill....i mean knockhill

 

In ireland theres quite a few fords, 3drs and Saffs, that enter the drifting comps. Never fight for top honours, but do it anyhow, as its all good fun.

Theres been a few Fords over the years enter comps in the UK too, usually for just one round, do bad, and bugger off, here some pics...

The 5.2 V8 3dr coming a fantastic last place at Silverstone this year...






Julian Smiths little brother came over from Ireland now n again and actually won the drifting at the first ever GT Battle in his 24V P100 shitbox.
Not bad for a 17yr old






Heres he is competing in the old Autoglym championchip too.






Heres some other Sierras that have entered in the past...






Ill be interested to find out who was driving the blue one above, as its got DriftMoto graphics on it, so mightve been Stiggy or Nev, who are both still around now and are good drifters (Stig competed this yr in the Autoglym Skyline and will next year in his awesome Pinto powered Starlet).
The XR4i is my mate James at pretty much the 1st ever drift competition in the UK about 2001. He still around too, with a XE powered AE86.
Got a pic of that 4i written off somewhere on my old PC.

Theres been others over the years, always Saffs that i remember, none of them ever doing well mind, its harder than people think, so its usually a case of enter full of confidence as you can hang it at your local cruise, get caned, give up.

Hell, even scoobies have entered in the past
