Nic Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 I had a bit of fun this afternoon, me and a friend with an R33 GTR drift car, spent a couple of hours on the old Kai Tak runway doing a spot of drifting and drag racing It's a huge area and we had it all to ourselves http://www.hang-out.co.uk/light%20aircraft/Resources/hkg.jpeg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nic Posted July 3, 2007 Author Share Posted July 3, 2007 I was a bit crap TBH, the surface was quite slippy and my right leg was having trouble gently feeding in the power of the GT35R, which resulted in a lot of tyre smoke and many spin outs My friend (who use to race and is an extremely good driver), had a go in my car and got it sideways at some silly speeds, which was very impressive to watch I'll have to borrow a video camera next time.

Nic Posted July 3, 2007 Author Share Posted July 3, 2007 No way you went without a camera It was a spur of the moment thing, I was getting some electrikity stuff on my car sorted and my friend (who is also the guy who mapped my car) suggested we go for a bit of 'testing' The whole area is just waste ground now and is all fenced in, so it is quite private, there were just a few fishermen sat on the edge of the runway watching our tyre smoking antics.

Alex C Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 Cool! Kai Tak was an awesome airport, not least for the amount of planes that landed at extremely odd angles! Isn't it planned to be re-developed when they build that big dome type plaza on the Kowloon side? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
