i think you might want to try one of the numerous English forums although they all suck.

I saw a video of supposed England's top Drifters. They sucked too. amateurs. One of them was drifting a Golf..........it looked incredibly stupid.

You might have a look at this months Evo Magaazine. They have a small article on the UK's small scene:

I don't know much about drifting myself NSX-R-SSJ20K, but I thought it required a rear-wheel drive or four-wheel drive car. Most Golf's are front wheel drive. Was it a 4-motion or the new R32?

Oh yeah, I forgot.... Initial D is about the wonders of Tofu and Teenage girls who whore themselves out.

It's about nothing else... not cars, not racing and especially not about the driving technique of 'drifting'.

I was a fool to link the two.

I have dishonored my family...

Are you pulling my leg? Do you have a link to the video? How do you drift a front wheel drive car?

You're probably right about UK drifting, but given the state of most UK roads and the weather in general that's hardly surprising. I think the magazine article mentioned that the only chance most people get to practice is by paying for track time or leasing out time on an old airfield.

In the UK, the only sort of roads underpopulated enough to be able to enjoy yourself on are B roads. These are mostly craggy surfaced, variable camber affairs that pitch, roll and are barely big enough for two cars. The likelihood is that you will wind up backwards in a ditch, bush or connect with a tree or car if you push yourself beyond your own limits.

Your obviously a cock of course we're all amateurs in the UK no one gets paid for it and its only been going on for a couple of years. You need to see some of the Silverstone drift clips before you can comment.

just what I think

AHAHAHHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAAHHAHA. Top Drifters, they were not. It was an amateur day with, you guessed it, amateurs. The top UK drifters now are still "amateurs" on the world scale, but they are doing pretty well these days. Certainly better than you would ever think if you only judged us from that crabby video that was made.. I mean, c'mon the Golf was pissing around, nothing serious at all.. Did you even notice the cheese head driving had "McDonalds" trays underneath the rear wheels?! OMG how gay!

If youve only seen this, then no wonder you think we suck (it was filmed like 2 years ago or somthing too).. But trust me, some of my friends are doing things that you wouldnt believe... I guess im not doing that badly either
