I've booked in for 22-01-08.
If you're interested, you need to get on to this link and book. http://www.drivingsolutions.com.au/Drift%20School.htm Limited places are available, so hurry. If we get enough numbers from the B-series crew, I'm happy to postpone. Cost is $200.

well it was only a suggestion guys and you don't have to make 10-15 people...
it can be less... if the general consenus is a no... then I'll cancel this booking and book myself in for Feb as well... just thought It might be cool to see all B series cars... or all Fords... ( i have a mate who's got a Zetec R Focus...) but can start a list and if the interest is there then we'll do it... March Listing 1) TheGuardian01 - NA XR6 2) Ross - Zetec R Focus

So what you are asking is if you have an automatic licence even if it is upgraded to manual automatically can it be upgraded manually by sitting for a manual test and if passed the automatic licence is automatically upgraded but if failed is the automaic licence automatically failed as well and do you have to read the road safety manual to sit for the manual upgrade or does the automatic licence test of the road safety manual automatically cover the manual test as well? |

LSD not a prerequisite as drifting will be conducted on skid pan to save tyres and diff gears...

Hmmmm ... this could be interesting.
OK ... the work ute isn't B-series ... but it's still could be fun. No use bring the Territory ... the damn thing is AWD.

Trust me I have tried ... the AWD system in the Territory is too damn smart ... sticks like you know what to a blanket ... even when it's bucketing down with an inch of water on the road.
Now if it was a Turbo Territory ... that'd be much more fun. My problem is the stocker Territory doesn't have enough power for the weight.
