Here is me mucking up one of the transitions at the back end of the Barkston Heath Course. Javelin run a good day. Thanks to Ren for the Vid.

Sounds like you had a good day Andy. Can't get that link working but I suspect it may be my Lada spec PC.
What was the format for the day? Sessions, one lap at a time, how many corners to a lap etc?
Also, how did you get on with your 60psi too?

One lap at a time with a bit of open tarmac at the end you could make your own course up on. Course about half a mile? Loads of corners but the slalom bit surrounded by tyres so I just went slowly through it for fear of bending the beema.
I ran some 185s at the back at 60 psi to start with and went through 4 in about half an hour. No grip at all at the back which was cool. The vid clip was with wider alloys on and the angles were smaller but the car much more controllable.

Heres a different one with skinnies on the back; try right click and save???

Lol! I dont think so! I'm at the arse end of the drift talent queue. It was the first time out in the dry and my first time clutch kicking which worked well, I didnt touch the handbrake at all.
A proper drifter like Bladey will be initiating at almost exactly twice the entry speed and gear ratio of my leather trimmed repmobile and have another car within a few feet of him. Mind boggles etc.
What difference will welding the diff make? Apparently that's the next mod on the list. I've been told it will induce understeer, but not sure I need very much more of that! You've done your S13 haven't you Stuart?
