Newbie from Deira

Hello there...I'm Fiel from Deira and it's nice that I found this site for my newfound hobby..I have a nitro touring car but having difficulty finding a place to give it a go..I hope that you folks can help out on all issues that I might encounter concerning this hobby in the future..see you around..

welcome to dubdrift sir!, most of us use electric car for drifting. But some of us used nitro before.

Thank you sir..now it made me thinking to get one of those electric powered one,,but that could be at a later stage as I just got this nitro car :-(... anyways, do you guys play around somewhere so I can probably visit you and watch your drifting sessions live? thanks.

we play every saturday afternoon, if you know oud metha area, after canadian hospital signal, going to wafi city, there's EPPCO petrol station, at the back of EPPCO there's a parking lot, that's where we play. hope to see u there.

Thanks Man...I appreciate the info, I'll see you then this Saturday..ALL THE BEST..

FYI there's a drift meet also this coming friday afternoon 5PM same place.

OK thanks a lot..I'll see if i can be there on Friday as well to watch and learn from you guys..

actually its more of a photoshoot session so you can see all the best customized shell, blinking lights and shelf queen drift kit of some of the members.

Welcome to the forums..

Welcome

Welcome!

Although I don't have much to do with the drift fraternity (simply because I suck at it) but I would mention that the Area where the drifting takes place is a residential area so I would recommend you refrain from running a nitro there...the neighbours might get a little upset.

If you are interested in racing rather than drifting, feel free to join us at the Meydan track on Sat afternoons. Unfortunately we all run electrics there but when we are not racing, or if it is an informal session you are welcome there. There is a mosque directly adjacent to the track and you will upset them if you make a noise during prayer time.

I know I seem like a killjoy, but as a community we have struggled to get areas to run our cars and all of us would appreciate it, if it stays this way.

(that will teach you for buying a smelly, noisy, oily nitro car)

welcome to DubDrift Bro!

may the force be with you...

An alternative is the permanent race track in Al Ain!

Several guys from Dubai/Abu Dhabi are frequent visitors of the track on Friday mornings.

They run 1/10 scale touring cars, both nitro and electric.

Good stuff...thanks for all the info and warm welcome...points of the do's and don'ts are all noted, I have certainly never been playing with my car in places (residential) where I know it will annoy or irritate somebody, unfortunately, I'm stuck with this car for a while and I guess I will have to go for "Mister-E's" advice..I'm sure it's worth travelling to Al Ain once in a while. Thanks Guys..and I'll see you around..

Hi Kiko just let us know when you're going to Al ain so that we can go there also.

Kiko,

This morning, 4 guys from Dubai and 4 from Abu Dhabi went to Al Ain where they stay the whole day to run besides on road, off road as well.

Too bad that I can't join them this time however, next week Friday I will go there as well.

I finally have my Tamiya BMW M3 Evo..look forward to drifting with you guys..

welcome bro... enjoy

I will Bro..thank you.
