R100 a tyre! doesnt matter if its a 15' or a 19'.
but he did tell me last time that he didnt have many 15's:( But i'll check with him again.
what do you think of making a week out of this? monday 27th april is a public holiday and the friday 1st may, take three days leave and got two weekends and a week?

I wouldn't drift on a 60 profile. It doesn't seem safe to me.
I'm keen for some second hand tyres. Thats a good price. I would also like to get 198/50/15's tho. I hope he has some.
Going down for a week would be cool, but I haven't worked up much leave at work yet...
a week sounds Great to me.. but im not sure my sx will be up and running properly by April?!:(

For that week it only three days you need to take off. 195/60 is the std tyre size

no rush guys 🙂 the rock will be here LOL
i will have some finalized info for you later on, The Boss has already arranged a meeting for tonight! 🙂
As for the events here are some finalized dates for you to work around:
06 June is (SA leg 2) which is a big event!!!
04 July - normal monthly event
01 August - normal monthly event
05 September (SA Leg 3) big event!!
im positively leaning towards the 6th of june 🙂 and Binx say's there a big event then so that would be awesome to watch ..., although i really like Rat's idea of making it a week long trip.
why watch? Participate.... The other more regular drifters are very respectful and its an awesome experience. Entrance is free as competitors. We set up a braai and have fun like no other saturday!
It would be great to see you guys come up and give it a go.
Juan is a VERY talented drifter and he's helped so many of teh other guys to - they hold him in very high regard.
As for using someone elses car, this is a better idea than you think. Juan pilots a R32 Skyline that has now been fitted with an RB20DET and makes respectable power. Learning in this car isn't a bad thing - the car has been set up for drifting and will make the learning process much easier. Using your own car (which may not be set up for drifting) will make you anxious and gun-shy. I agree with getting to know your own car - but learn to catch, control and maintain a long slide first before diving head first into one of the walls (no pun intended).
There will be a lot of practicing leading up to the 6/6 event, possibly even with some of the Cape Town guys. You may not get as much track time in as you would otherwise, but there will be a lot of inspiration and it'll give you an idea of what the SA drift community is about on a larger scale. Nearly everyone there will be willing to help you guys learn. Plus, if you're confident enough, you can compete in the competition.
Yup, it's that accessible.

This is a bold statement... 😀 not saying you can't, I just think you'll be very surprised.

Na, all good fun. It looks a lot easier than it is - but it is epic fun nonetheless.
PS2? There's no reset button in real life... cock-up and you know all about it. 😉
It sounds like it would be epic fun. You are right spyke it may be best to start off in the R33. Then once we get the hang of it we can move onto our own cars.
