As I’d previously mentioned, on New Year’s Eve I headed up to Teesside Autodrome with Josh of Graphix-D in tow to enjoy some relaxed drifting at one of my favourite tracks. Unfortunately, the word “relaxed” doesn’t really feature too much in drifting at any level, which you could probably get […]

Adventures With Friends
Happy New Year everyone. My plans for 2017? Well, one of which is definitely to enjoy more time driving on the road with my friends in our cars. Even if it’s up a mountain in thick fog in sub-zero temperatures in the early hours of the morning…well, especially that. I’ve […]
Read MoreDrift Matsuri 2016 at Anglesey
Even though I wasn’t drifting at this year’s Drift Matsuri, I still decided to make the trip to spectate. I haven’t missed an Anglesey Drift Matsuri since the first event three years ago and, be it destroying Dan Joyce’s clutch on the big track in 2014 or waking up in a camper […]
Read MoreRx-7 with Mx-5 Power: Adam’s FC3S
I’m definitely posting a lot of videos recently, something I’d attribute to them being so well received on social media.

Read MoreBringing the Boost…Soon
Matt Pickering’s boosted Mx-5 parked up at Three Sisters Raceway the other weekend. Various reasons meant that Matt wasn’t out on track which was a shame as I haven’t seen him drive since fitting the turbo setup. When he does, I’ll be sure to capture some video footage.
Read MoreDrifting in the Sun: Three Sisters Practice Day
Being what will undoubtedly be one of the hottest weekends of the year, Sunday’s practice day at Three Sisters saw a lot of sunburnt faces and drivers sweltering in their cars, wishing they hadn’t removed their electric windows and/or air conditioning! I was gutted not to be driving but still popped […]
Read MoreSoon-to-be-Boosted Noisemaker
What do you do when you’ve got a naturally aspirated FC Rx-7, an urge for more power and an insatiable work ethic for doing things yourself on your driveway? Adam Maciejewski’s drift car is what, with its unusual new power plant.
