Skids and Tea @ Meppen 2024

Let me start with what an amazing day it was, never have I had the privilege to host a drift event before.
The people that came and the cars that they brought were impeccable and the vibe was great overall!

Organizing such an event is a first for me and it was quite scary to be honest, but I’m glad I went through with it because it was totally worth it.

The sheer amount of classic toyota’s, which were tastefully modded as well. Not your average line-up of drift cars i’d say.

Here you see Sem, of Cringe Wheels on instagram. He was low on power and low on spring-rate, but still managed to throw it around a couple of times.

Of course Manly man Mick was at the event as well, showing how its done as always, driving his 2JZ NA powered RX30 Cressida. Never gets old seeing/hearing that car go sideways.

Mike “Mokehaus” Dylan Pieffers in his in my opinion perfectly styled AE86. Big lip 14’s with good fitment and no wacky bodykit slapped on it.

Unfortunately breaking cars is a fact when you are drifting. Mick broke his crankshaft damper, luckily a shop nearby was able to weld it together so he could at least get home.

Kuhn had his fair share of damage as well, his headgasket went so on to the trailer the car went. Doesn’t mean that Koen didn’t have a lot of seat time that day.

There he goes, Koen’s turbo m10 equiped e21 being chased by Jeroen in his e36 328i.

Who’s been following my personal mx-5 build probably knows about it being built by Hummelink Modifications. They were also at the event with a stand selling their own made ITB kit. Impressive piece of kit, every NA miata build should be equiped with that.
