does it cost anything to spectate?

:wave:

Yeah I made it a little more obvious steve... sorry about that James...

Drift Australia cost $1650 per round to compete :wave:

Ouch

Think of all the trackdays you could do instead of that!

OP GP @ 220

mmm OP GP

How many do you do a year?

hahaha silly me.....thanks for clearing it up...............very interested..............definitely want to go and have a look next week.

yikes, 1650 to compete per round.....ARRRGGGHHHH..think of all the goodies you can buy for the car.

From experience, there is heaps of cars on track on Saturday, lots of spins, and some awesome drifting in the morning while people learn their limits, Saturday arvo Qualifying can produce some spellbinding runs... particularly if someone nails their first qualifyer and goes all out for that top spot!!! pure gold. And there is team drift at the end as well.

Sunday is Battles a plenty, infact all day long... and with team drift in between it is certainly going to be a top display of wicked drifting... there can be some breaks in between through (although I have heard that by the arvo those on the hill won't mind too much as they can use the time for a pit stop to get rid of excess booze!) This round though DA are trying really hard to have track action all day long on Sunday and to get rid of the gaps.

Me, I'd just go both days... hell for $35 for the whole weekend and that gets you pit access and the best seats in the house, compared to the V8 taxi's starting at $100 for a weekend for paddock access at Oran Park... can't beat it!

If I had to Choose it would be Sunday... but I'd be pissed I had missed seeing the action on Saturday. :(

Hope that helps,

Dan.

    • The question then becomes - was there any fluid coming from that hole before you did the rebuild ?    You may not have noticed, of course.   Depending on how you did the rebuild, the possibility has to be considered that somehow (cleaning ?)  fluid entered that hole and is now being 'forced'  out by small movements of the proportioning valve.   From the factory, there's actually a small rubber plug in that hole but with age and under-bonnet heat it's quite common for it to 'go missing'.  That rubber plug is designed to allow the venting process but also to prevent 'stuff' getting to the area (prevent corrosion, etc).   The plug is also not available as a spare part AFAIA. Personally I wouldn't race and buy a new master just yet but keep an eye on the area to see if the 'leak' continues.   If you're concerned about brake fluid damaging nearby paintwork, cable tie a piece of suitable absorbant material over the hole and remove/monitor occasionally.    Operation of the proportioning valve and the brake master itself won't be affected, but also keep an eye on brake fluid level, of course. In terms of a new master, the genuine part is getting expensive, unfortunately.  Amayama is showing AUD900+.   I was searching recently and there's an aftermarket part available from Japan made by 'Parts Assist': https://zenmarket.jp/en/yahoo.aspx?q=BNR32%2bBM50&p=1 Whether it's any good I have no idea, although in my experience Japanese aftermarket stuff is pretty good quality-wise.   The above site allows overseas buyers to purchase stuff more easily from Japan but there are fees and shipping costs, of course.   The original Japanese seller page is here: https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/p1197401228 Copper/Nickel is fine but I still prefer bundy tube and it's also cheaper.
