Head out onto the drifting stage in not one but two JDM drift-spec Cars on our exclusive Bronze Drift Battle experience, hosted just outside the Capital at Bovingdon Circuit. And with an expert drifting instructor to offer top class coaching and tuition with both the briefing and sighting laps, they'll also be on hand to offer guidance and encouragement, as you take to the wheel to experience the thrill of sideways driving for 4 laps in both the rear wheel spinning, competitive drifter in the BMW E90 Drift Taxi, and the superbly powered 3.6 litre V6 Nissan 350z!
