Some used tires will be provided, as well tire mounting/balancing at track. Atleast thats how it worked last time.

All you should need is passport to cross border and money to pay fuel

first time i tried a drift, it was in an industrial area. it was a sharp left hand turn going down hill . the date was febuary 15 and it was raining that day. I was driving my t2 back when i still had it. i tried doing a faint drift and understeered into the curb haha. damaged my right front side lower A arm and the fenders. it took a month to get it moving again. Learn my lesson that day , not to try a drift on public streets when its your first try lol.

i spun out 2 laps out of 12 laps at the ring last year. the first one the double apex corner got me, and i spun out at the corner where u go airborne before the turn. my clutch gave out and engaged too early. the worst snap oversteer expierence ever. It was like poping ur clutch but going into a corner @ 120 km/h. both sides of my front fender have damage from the tires hitting under the fender. Those corners have crazy steep *** chicanes.

Hey hIGGI , do not deconcentrate too much from our plan

Anyway, wish you best luck...

Oh, I'll make announce about what's happening on forum as soon as we know how situation changes...it is obvious that you'll need to make a new photo reportage of the event when the car will be in your hands

This said, I do not say anything more just for hope everything goes well, so let's concentrate on doing nice drifts friend, ok??

Keep up the good name of the FCs!!!
