The British Drift Championship Round 4


Drifting. I find it hard to see how some petrolheads dislike this sport, it is after all very highly tuned vehicles destroying tyres in the name of entertainment, and what’s not to like about that? I wouldn’t call my self an avid follower of the scene; the last time I went to a drift event was JDM allstars in 2009. However leaving round 4 of the BDC I found myself thinking much the same thing as I did back in 2009, I really should follow this sport more.


A M3 GTR lookalike with a Toyota Supra 2JZGTE against a Silvia S15 equipped with a Nissan V8 and twin turbos – you’re unlikely to find cars like this elsewhere…

Trader Dreamer: BTCC Special I


YouTube is a wonderful thing, aside from millions of hours of utterly pointless drivel and many more comments of the same ilk, there’s seemingly no limit to what you can watch. I’ve recently been entertaining myself by watching BTCC videos. I’m a huge fan of the super touring years of the sport, and YouTube makes it possible to watch those races on demand. This is the first of ‘Trader Dreamer’s inspired by this great racing series, and it’s natural to start with the year 1990, the first year to feature the new 2-litre class that would make the series so very special.
