Thumbs up UKD1 - its gonna be massive.

Went over to the UKD1 finals at silverstone today. P!$$!NG down with rain and the track was soooo slippy. There are loads of pictures of the action over on the Driftworks website.

I got this today too. Been looking for nearly a year and now I got what I hope is a good one. Spec incredible - was built up from the shell last year after a major respray and hardly any rust (which is a big thing for one of these)



hmmmmm....9,200rpm and 4 roller barrel throttle bodies sounds 'interesting'
Its good fun

Hopefully.

I have a long way to go - but I think the hachi is gonna be great. Balance is really good on the car I just need to experiment with it a little - don't like the look of birmingham wheels so a wide open venue would be great. May try brunters but it can be expensive. Far less pendulous in oversteer than the westi. FR vs MR is quite a contrast when you experience both.

Have some wiring bits to fix up but hopefully nothing serious.

It looked slippy as hell on sunday.
