I think their will be quite afew good cars there. Nothing else is open except servo's and WSID so all the motor heads will be out there with their wheelie bars removed and swapped over to street tyres :P

i couldnt get a helmet in time so i spectated. I came at night and saw a white skyline doing 11s and 12s, it was awe inspiring.

The announcers hated imports lol and shook his head when he saw those times.

I thought the burnouts sessions were a waste of time, a big Meh from me when a couple of commo engines blew.

But yeah I found it a bit disappointing, it seems like one big bogan fest. The jap cars need to represent more. I liked the white skyline and the red supra though!

Easily the best burnouts WSID has ever seen for an "off-street meet". How can you go past Monique doing a burnout in her bf's VP, I have trouble just standing still next to her out the back in the pits let alone her throwing a car around on the burnout pad :bunny:

I thought the burnout sessions (and the whole day actually) were pretty damm good considering it's was only meant to be a 'street meet'.

Monique's burnout was a good effort, but definately not the best of the day by a long shot though...

Perhaps I'm missing something, but I don't get it why everyone whinges about V8's or imports racing depending on which side of the fence you sit. I actually enjoy seeing both types of cars racing side by side...I think there should be more of it personally and going by the half decent crowd size (more than most sport compact meets I've been to), I'm guessing I'm not the only one...

The only dissapointing part of the day was the fact that a lot of the fast cars didn't bother entering the rebel bracket shootout at the end of the day. I thought the lure of some prizemoney would have drawn a few more cars out...maybe next time. Still a pretty good day overall in my books.

Oil was DEFINITELY on the track BEFORE Shane raced. As witnessed by the total lack of oil under his car and the fact that he went straight as a die on the next pass.

Didn't stop the WSID officials pricking it out in a big way though

There weren't many cameras pointed at you Shane. Our jaws were all on the floor!

yeah, unfortunately thats what happened to my camera man. he dropped the camera when i was 45 degrees to the right wall.

no one seemed to actually get many pics of the car all weekend. although i had lots of verbal praise which was good.

      Oh right, I didn't realise it was your car. Please do! Makes me feel better about mine. I also have a big scrape on the front left bumper where someone presumably used the wall to guide the car into a parking spot  But somehow all the funds go towards mechanical things and the cosmetics stay forever unfinished... Interesting, I don't think I have seen it before. But after seeing @PranK's rusty roofline on the BMW I'd probably leave it alone. Wouldn't want water to get in there.

      Could it really happen......

      Infiniti US are teasing a manual Q50 as a way to refresh a (very old) model. https://torquecafe.com/manual-performance-sedans-arent-dead-yet/ Can't be too technically difficult given the Z has the same motor with a manual gearbox......here's hoping there is a JDM version we can import here, that would save me a world of headaches
