Polish drifter here. Built a drift-only home because the calendar of where you can actually drift is scattered everywhere. Looking for a roast.
Drifter from Poland here. Been in the local scene for a couple of years. Developer by day. About a year ago I noticed something that bugs me more every season: drift stuff is scattered everywhere. Track days lost in group chats. Open-practice announcements on Facebook pages nobody finds in time. Cars for sale on six different listing sites. Results posted to Instagram and gone two days later. There's no place that's just for us.
So I built DriftHub. The idea was simple: one drift-only home for the stuff drifters actually look for. Especially events. And by events I mostly mean track days and training sessions - competitions are just on top. Try finding a clean list of where you can actually drift in your country this month, without bouncing between Facebook, league sites, and group chats. You can't.
I built it for Poland first because that's my home market. I know the series, the people, the tracks. But "drift content scattered everywhere" looks like a universal problem, which is why I'm posting here.
What it is right now:
- Drift event calendar - free for everyone. Track days, training sessions, open practice first; competitions on top. Free to list, free to browse. Polish tracks and series for now, but I'll add any country's stuff if there's a source to pull from. This is the part I care about most.
- Drift car listings - paid. Real fields: engine code, diff type (welded / 1.5 / 2-way), hydro, cage cert, wheel power on E85, angle kit make. Basic listing is 19 PLN (~$5), Regular and Premium go up from there with more visibility.
- Plus a blog, and a drift newsletter.
I plan to add to the website actual tracks/spots, better competition events tracking, simdrifting section and drift schools with opinions and their offer.
Where I want roast:
- What sucks? Anything broken, slow, missing, or just wrong. Heads up: I'm in the middle of reimplementing the front end with a new design, so not every page is beautiful yet. Tell me anyway. Ugly is fixable. Honest is better than polite.
- What's cool? If anything actually works for you, tell me which part. I genuinely don't know which features will matter outside the Polish bubble.
- Does this even need to exist? Every drifter I asked locally said "yeah, it's a mess, this would help". But those same people will keep using Facebook because that's where their friends post. Do you actually feel the pain, or is "scattered" just how drift internet is supposed to feel?
- Who's the competition where you are? US, UK, Australia, Japan, anywhere. What do you use today? Is there already a drift-only home in your country I should know about? When I googled, I mostly got generic car-sale sites and Craigslist screenshots. If there's a real one in your market, tell me and I'll go cry. If there isn't, would you use this?
Site: drifthub.net (English by default; /pl/ for the Polish version).
I'll be in the comments. Tell me where it falls apart, what your country's drift internet looks like today, and what would make you actually use a thing like this. The harshest replies usually fix the most. Thanks a ton!
