Here is a brief run down of how round 1 went for me. The location was Stowe circuit at Silverstone. Here is a brief description of the track:A nice long run up to the first left hander (Bryn saw 70mph on my speedo at one point before initiation). The turn was a little deceptive as it looked tight but opened up nicely linking into a fairly long straight (I would give you the length in approximate

Last weekend, The British Drift Championship held a licensing day at Llandow, we had 3 drivers fighting for the all important licenses, Gareth Power in his BMW E36 M3, James Woodman in his Nissan 200SX S13 and Ian Williams also in a Nissan 200SX S13.The build up to the event was the usual routine of get your car ready, Gareth and James (Goose and Woody) were all set with just loading up tyres and

Having been into drifting for quite some time you think you've seen everything and then something comes along and makes your hairs stand on end.This short video clip did it for me, D1 driver Masato Kawabata pulling off a crazy backwards entry and managing to nail the clipping point. Needless to say this has inspired me and I will be trying to achieve something similar during the off season.Enjoy

When Nightwalkers were asked by one of our sponsors Longlife Stainless Steel Exhausts to take some of the cars to an open day, we were more then happy to help out. Longlife have helped work on most of the Nightwalker cars as well as employing one of the members. A great day was had by all. Everyone in attendance were glad to help and support in any way we could.Longlife CaerphillyLonglife

Never thought I would ever be making a post like this to be honest, but then I never thought our Pro Am driver Jamie Kenyon could grow facial hair either but he has lol.The title is true, NightWalkers have in fact gone Bollywood, one of our team cars belonging to Daniel O'Brien has been used in a music video for a group called 'Nachle' the video was made by X1X Film, instead of reading I'll just

It's been an emotional week in motor sport where two accidents have occurred, first the loss of a young and talented driver, Henry Surtees in Formula 2, at Brands hatch. A crash ahead of Surtees threw a wheel across the track direct into his path colliding with his helmet. Surtees just 18 years of age, with what looked to be a promising career ahead of him, died later that day in hospital, we

This is pretty much a first for our Welsh based blog which is normally focusing around all things drift, but something caught my eye this week which I feel I need to share, think of the old supercars such as the Jaguar e-type, Aston Martin DB5 and even those further back in history...then work your way up through to the present time taking note on how much each supercar has changed in both style

When the opportunity for the chance to have a go at obtaining an EDC licence came up I thought should I? I thought sod it lets have a go! So I booked the day off work ready for the day. I booked it with the thought of not getting a licence but trying to find out how far I am from being at a standard able to compete with Europe's top drifters.Well in preparation for this we discovered a few issues

Ok this is my first ever blog post so bare with my newbie blogging skills.I was recently invited to attend a National Skyline Owners day at Llandow race circuit in South Wales. I was also joined by fellow NightWalker Danny O’Brien who was also driving, along with Mason taking photographs of the action.The reason for the invite was to provide passenger rides around the track to raise money for a

One of the newest drivers of the team happens to be the one who makes the most impact, and in more ways than one as you'll see the further you read, the driver in question is Ian Williams otherly known as foot...before drifting Ian was taking part in Time Attack with his Mitsubishi EVO IV, but caught the bug and so evolved not only a new NightWalker...but also a now familiar S13.For those outside

Simple answer to this question would be no!However, rather than answer with a simple response I feel I should explain and convince you that despite most's opinion that drift and Japanese are the best combination you actually have lots of choice, one I would like to see more of is a bit of German.Amongst the team we have a few BMW's, one that sticks out and breathes in attention is Goose's BMW E36

Here's a bit of retrospective post, before the 2009 British Drift Championship kicked off the first of the Nightwalkers cars was stickered up ready for its Round 1 debut at Donington park.The guys at Ace Image UK ventured down to deepest, darkest West Wales to taff*tune for a weekend of painstaking work applying the livery to Chris Hackwoods S14. Just over a day later and the car was looking mint

A while back I went for a drive out over the hills of West Wales and found myself in the middle of some rather cool scenery so I shot a few pictures, here are some of the results.

At 8:36pm tonight i get a phone call from fellow NightWalker Woody, who to those of us that own S13's is seen as a bit of a god, while his car was off the road for those many months he did nothing but help out his fellow team mates, karma must have appreciated this and made the word a better place...better but not as safe.Reason for this is simple, the phone call was to say his S13 is back on the
