[R3sp3ct]

Im stressin out!!!!

Nighty night, see you guys in the morning

[Veilside R33]

Which sick twisted mother fu**er would let it be raining???????

Just got up, heard a noise outside....rain!

I've just checked the forecast www.bom.com.au and it should be ok, Sydney will be fine just with the chance of a late shower.

I'm not to keen to ride in the rain but the chances are minimal so I'll see you there.

[Veilside R33]

Great, Rach has cancelled which means Cassi can't go and that was a main reason for me going (not that it's Cassi's fault) I've just checked and my bike is 2 days out of rego.

I'm not to worried about the rego but I'm pissed off now so f**k it I'm not going.

yer i found out that they were just ppl compeating in super pove drift series not the austalian drift nats so from my knoledge its go but it just started to rain fun fun fun

[R3sp3ct]

[skyline_babe5]

Calllmm Andrew you see me still anyhow

Hope it was good down there for those that went last time i went it was pretty good and it was raining aswell lol must be a tradition

[Psymon]

Overall was a good day except for the sandblasting we got! Was really awesome to see the drifting live instead of on TV.

Also a massive thanks to Sinista for the coolant on the way home. No one knows how long i would have been stuck on the side of the hume hwy if he didn't have that!

[R3sp3ct]

Yeah that wind was ridicules, sweet drifting tho and them autosalon cars were crazy. Glad i had the video camera.

Drifting was great, Autosalon cars looked shmik! Dirt cyclones I can live without. Met some good peeps and the turnout was good for the cruise up.

One detractor was the front bar to rear clash I heard about from our guys approaching the entry gates. I feel for you guys. I'd like offer help if any one knows em.

[Sauce]

Saw the S14 that copped the damage to the front when Psymon, Myself and some other bloke got there since we parked a row up from it. Doesn't look real good. Certainly feel for the owner, I used to see that car every day when I worked in belco and it was pretty nice.

All up a pretty good cruise, though things kinda fell apart after maccas when we all ended up split up The drift was pretty sweet, too. Did any of you stick around till the end? I didn't see many of the cars there when I left at the end, though I stuck around for a bit to talk to a mate who was doing the judging. Half the time the judges couldn't see shit thanks to the dust and the wind was nearly tipping their little platform over XD Will post up the photos we got when I get them from my mates camera. Got some pretty awesome shots of the action.

[Terminal]

i was there until the end, but god damn that wind/dust was giving me the shits. nothing like ruining a perfect day with crappy weather. i saw a few people, but mostly just watched the racing. saw heaps of skylines in the carpark and around, but couldn't remember who owned which...

[supadan]

yer great day got lost off fotos but exccept for the wind and dust and the s14 hitting me from rear it was all good

[leech_]

wtf that's dodgy as hope you get it sorted. Was this S14 someone who went up from Canberra.

s14 hitting me from rear

[low200]

yeh poor duey hope hes all insured up.

[supadan]

yer i feel bad for him there needs to be a bit of work on his car. i just won to get it all sorted. he only has 3rd party

[DJ_On_Ice]

Yeah that crash sucked! He is going to need a new bonnet (or at least some heavy pannel beating on it), front bar (which apparently he has one at home [YAY for him]), intercooler seemed fine, right hand side indicator was crack (but not broken), and the mounts for the front bar will need to be bent/fixed up. I'm asking around for parts and stuff.....I may not know him but you know SAU'ers and Nissan and lovers we have to stick up for one another! ... Well the day was awesome and final battle was pretty sweet....but one thing annoyed the hell out of me....the DAMN gail force propelled dirt. MEH! Just when I got home and had a shower, the water coming out of my hair was black!

Some of the Autosalon cars were just drewlable. Did anyone catch that JDM 350z? Or the two very sexual 32GT-R's?

How is the indicator sitch Richard? Shouldn't be too hard to get another...should it?

I have a few pics I took of the cruise up and when we were at Maccas on my phone (alright cam') and I'll post them up here in the next few days. I may have only been in a little BMW but did anyone catch the looks we were getting from kids and families on the highway....? <<< In a good way!

[Sinista32]

D-speed clear indicator, scarce and expensive , I'm led to believe.

Maybe a good plastic welder type person. Any Ideas?

really sorry to hear about your car hope you get it all sorted out quickly

[DJ_On_Ice]

*SHRUGS* Sorry Richard.... but I'll let you know if I hear about anything that could be a problem solver for you.

A decent plastic welder could fix them provided there is a marking on the case to say what sort of plastic was used when they were moulded so the plastic welder can use the right plastic. If the wrong type of plastic is used it won't hold up for very long at all.
