We move into 2013 with the standard of driving reaching VERY high standards. With that, we thought it was time to raise the standard of trophies.
We contacted a number of companies across the UK to find suitable silverware for drivers to place in their cabinets, on their mantel piece, a workshop shelf or where ever they choose.
We eventually chose a company called Dewhursts Trophies, with a shop in Kings Lynn and one in Boston in Lincolnshire, they couldn’t have been more helpful.
After a painstaking trawl through a number of catalogues provided we eventually came up with a decision on which type to choose.
With the start of the 2013 British Drift Championship just around the corner, we thought that now would be the perfect time to take a look at this year’s line up. From the stalwarts to the newbies, the movers and shakers to the long time protagonists, this season looks set to the best ever for both the drivers and the spectators.
It is with great pleasure that we can announce that the 2013 British Drift Championship will be broadcast on Motors TV! After successfully broadcasting the 2012 championship to televisions around the world we are glad that Motors TV will once again be providing Europe’s premier drifting championship with the exposure it deserves.
We’re pleased to announce that The British Drift Championship will be in attendance at Trax 2013, which is being held once again at Silverstone on Sunday 8th September.
With lots of thrilling action you can be sure it will be a day not worth missing. We’ll be releasing more details soon, but pencil the date into your diary for one of the hottest shows of the year.
The 2012 season of the Maxxis British Drift Championship saw the sport and organisation boom! The level of attention received pushed things to the very edge of manic. Drifting fans just couldn’t get enough of the action that the BDC promises, and delivers! The teams and drivers all stepped it up a notch and we were rewarded with a season that surely has to go down into the history books as a landmark for British Drifting!
