Wish I was there, Knockhill is mint, esp for the drifting.

Bon in the orange Chaser like mine came 2nd, which is nice.

Best of all tho my mate Mike in the E30Car cost him about 60quid, is an utter nail he has modded all himself, he got into EDC as a wildcard for winning the last round of BDC, and qualified 1st at Knockhill against all the mega money mega bhp cars!

Look at the fucker go! Its the driver, not the car, and most fuckers wouldnt go that fast grip driving, never mind drifting!

56sec lap tho, fast as fuck for a RWD on road tyres, only about 3sec off the winner.

Nah, tho thats cool anyhow.

Main reason Its FAST! They all in 4th or 5th gear before they initiate the drift. I like mentally fast stuff.

Wicked pics, was going to ask about the lap times to compare it to what Andy does round there

Pretty close seeing as Andy has a wealth of local knowledge around that place!

The white Mk1 Impreza NEVER fails to impress me, always looks simply stunning!

Man the lad in the E30 has some talent !

However, please don't refer to the R888s as "road tyres" . Road legal track day tyres is a much fairer description, otherwise people will think they are doing those times on a set of Goodyear Eagle F1s or the like .

Didn't get on as well as he had hoped Dan.. Finished 23th in Club Class IIRC

The front runners in Club Class have a good 300hp more than him so around 30-40mph faster down the straight than him!.. they should be in pro class really!

Round the corners though its a different story


Also that Bmw is awesome

The bm was the best there. The angles he had that in was mental. A like the cheap and cheerful route.

Good pics STU

Cheap and cheerful would normally mean last by a mile though.

But he a VERY good driver and has done some very good DIY mods.

That's a shame, how did Kev and his Evo 6 get on?

Is Kev where he belongs in the Pro class yet!?

A Pro class car is a car driven and owned by a pro company which Kevs is not, For me to do a Pro car I would have to throw 70 to 100K for the car and the season which I am not able to do yet.
