News We go for some real-world drifting at Santa Pod

Writer

Posted on 05/03/2017

Our resident drifting expert Ed recently took to Santa Pod for some real-world drifting.

Ed first warms up his skills and his Lexus on the small warm-up drift course where he found to his surprise an alarming amount of understeer. This was later rectified by altering the tyre pressures which allowed the car to break traction much more readily.

Leaving the smaller warm-up track behind, we opt to head for the big track where we could really be let loose and have some fun. Of course the fun was had at the expense of the tyres which inevitably lost tread, one quick change however sorted that problem and we were out once more.

You can view Ed's real-world drifting skills at Santa Pod in the video below.
