The boyfriend's teaching me to drift at the next drift meet... but I dont think i'm brave enough to take the beat around a track... on the drift learner track all i've got to avoid is cones... i dont trust myself on a track let alone my beat which I dont really know well enough...

sorry chaps gonna have to pass on this one

Drifting a beat is never going to be easy as its Torque vs Grip.
The beat has little of one and lots of the other....

Wet roads maybe, Dry track.......doubtful!

Have fun

Just got back from the track day and it was great. Cars were falling apart everywhere but the little beats came home without a scratch. They took it really well.

It felt a little underpowered when carring a passager but apart from that it was great. I nearly didn't make it a couple of times but thanks to another drivers quick reaction I am not a part of a VW Golf. The handling was excellent and I couldnt falt it, you could keep up with anything in a corner. Anyway some of the pictures are here:

What a great day! The day passed off without incident. The beats held up well and were actually faster than I thought they would be!

I think ill need to sort out the suspension before the next track day, my thing handled like a boat in comparison with Adams RSR and Marks Mugen suspension! I think it would be beneficial to get 14" all round also to kill some of that horrible understeer!

All in all for a road car it done really well, its a really tough track
:D
