Looks awesome !!

If I could afford the time and cost of travelling the 1200 miles each way to come and have a play then I would !!!

yeah the distance is the thing. still 700mls from were i live. Silverstone is only 120 mls more than Novi Marof

The speed on the motorways in austria and slovenia is mostly restricted to 60 - 70 mph, wich makes the fuel consumption not too bad. 8)

just like here bud.

Have you been to any of the KOE events? oh "king of europe" that is. I went to the drag edition a few year back but they also do a drift one too

no i have never been to a king of europe event.

Im not that much into the drifting scene in franc or belgium, because i live in south germany, near munich. Its easier to go to austria or slovenia - and cheaper

but i used to come over for some events in england, first time was a practice event at silverstone, from OPT Drift Club, and came to watch some other events, like time attack, UKD1, D1GB, trax ...

over here you only can visit drift trainings with instructors, well a couple of them are good for german standarts. Such a Drift Training is not cheap they start from about 160gbp to 300gbp for learning theoretical stuff, and do half a day stuff on wet roundabouts and handling courses. drift challenges are more like a show, and judges don
