Looks like a form of drifting with two vehicles racing each other on a closed public road - in this case a closed rally section - downhill.

No worries everyone just thought i would post it just in case! But whoever wants to come and have a watch is more than welcome to, it should make for some good watching :nod:
didnt mean to sound harsh, just not really the kind of place i would take my 200 its a little shall we say rough up there.

Whats it like to get to for spectators then ? is the road ok for low cars etc ?
Also what time does it kick off and how do we get there ?
If its the same place as the bont rally stages then its as mark said, a little rough. Its quite tight in some parts and a lowered car will really struggle not to ground out. Not a place for 200 imo. Look on youtube for bont stages, there are a few videos on there to give you an idea.

Just done a google http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?hl=en-GB&ie=UTF-8&tab=wl
Looks bloody narrow for touge ?
it's about 60 miles from Swansea and about an hour 15 minutes drive.

I know were that is now, No I don't think a 200 is the weapon of choice for that.
10 out of 10 for effort but if I'm honest it looks pants:wack: Its like cat and mouse style rallying on that stretch but without rally preped cars:wack:
Wrong road Wrong cars IMO:rolleyes:
Below is right cars right ROAD:nod:

you godda love the japanese they're mad
i was trying to be nice about it:p but as said its far from touge its more mk2 escort land (as it is a rally stage)
find a proper place to do it because its a good idea, but i fear the uk just dosent have any where good enough:no:

Ok thank you all for your feed back, if we found a better location, for it would more of you be up for it?
We know the Bont is not the ideal place for it but we had to give it a go, ( i am sure you can appreciate that) there is a lot of drifting in the UK but touge seems to have been over looked slightly, so if a better venue was found do you think it would work?
After all surely we could find the ideal place here in Wales?
I think if i better location could be found a lot more people would be interested. People spend a lot of money on there cars and a place like bont could possibly cause a lot of unnecessary damage to them. I would be interested in going and taking part if the track was better suited and i think a lot of others will too.
agreed its something alot would be interested in, BUT unless you can get a section of road closed for a day (not going to happen here) we just dont have the places to do it

The only place i can see that it would be viable in the UK would be Milbrook :nod:
But for less than £100 i would prefer a track day :nod:

Ok well Millbrook is not a runner unfortunately :( ( thay have already said no thank you) but we have a had a few conversations with hill climb venues, one in particular is double width, smooth and very curvy it would be just right, so if we can get in there would that interest people?

Yes :nod: I for one would like too, venue and price dependant though. When you know more pm some details to myself or Pdh 14a:thumbs:
