Just a brief over-view. This is a training day.

The first drift learning day, known as Drift for Dummies will be held at the DECA facility in Shepparton on Saturday the 22nd July 2006.

We have two official sponsors for the event which are Jspec and Driftline

The day provides to be a useful learning platform for those wanting to learn what drifting is, how it is actually done and how you can do it in real life.

Wether your car is a stock standard car or a heavily modified street/drag car it doesn't matter as its a learning day and not a D1 competition.

The environment set out will be a relaxed and fun atmosphere with club members, professional instructors that are very well known within the Drift community and officials.

The event schedule will enforce strict instructions from both officials and drift instructors so it won't be a case of rock up and go sideways.

You will be directed on each of the "drift events" and given one on one instructions from our dedicated team.

In the first few events cars will have exclusive access on the Skidpan so theres no possibility of hitting another car, obstacle or doing any damage.

You do not need a 300rwkw 11sec street car to participate in our Drift for Dummies training day, any rear wheel drive car will be suitable.

The art of drifting is to be in control of a car that is out of control and to maintain that balance.

And above all... You will NOT eat your tyres. The tyres you choose to drive up on are more than adequate

Do you have to be a SAU member?

Entries have been opened to the general public now to fill spots.

someone correct me if i'm wrong, but you'll need to be part of a CAMS affiliated car club I beleive...

Cost for non SAU members is $110

We just found some random people from Bell St. Macca's mate...

Honestly, do you think we are charging you guys $110 to have someone that isnt expirienced.

If you're going to come with the attitude that you'll have to teach the instructors, it might be better if you dont come along.

Remember this is a Learn to drift event. If you dont need to learn then this event probably isnt for you

Just something to think about.

cheers - ash

Who will be the instructors. I don't want to go and have to teach them a thing or 2. (NO IM NOT A f**kEN NOOB EITHER)

I'm sure they will be able to teach you something and if not you maybe should look for a proffessional drive sometime soon.... :D

Or another event to attend!!

Oh and by the way, its good to see your coming along Sarah (Sxkity).... be good to catch up.

faxed it off this morning

Ash - Cause i dont have ASAA thingy can i just rock up on the day pay the $45 or what ever fill out and form and thats it? or is there anything else i must do before hand

Also - Just sent off money and forms for my brother David Bonaddio

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
