Well,
Here we go for another year of excellent D1 action.
But before you can compete in the D1GB series,
you have to Prove your skills and gain your D1
Licence, and this year the licensing was held
at Donington Park during the now famous Donnyshow!
Throughout the weekend drivers displayed their
skills around a small but demanding series of
bends, in the hope that the famous japanese drifter
and event judge 'Yasuyuki Kazama', would grant
them thier D1 licence. |

Drifters
flocked from all parts of the country to show
the crowd that they have what it takes to compete
with the finest drifters in the UK. The cars ranged
from self financed drift classics, to the very
latest in drift weaponry, complete with a host
of sponsors. The freshest on the scene was SVA
Imports 350Z, driven by Jason Davis & Steve
Dunn. It didn't perform too well during the event,
but the car is no doubt going through constant
development, with a reported 600bhp on the horizon. |

Much
more competitive on the day was the Sumo Power
350Z, catching some serious sideways action which
earned Tim Marshal his Licence, and the respect
of the crowd. Very consistent all through the
event, and convincingly earning a licence of his
own was Scott Armstrong in his Datsun Stanza.
Repeatedly drifting with style, and showing us
he's a force to be reckoned with! |
