I tell you i was thinking the worst when it happened on the track.

Big up's to adam the organiser for sau.

I gotta say, Stephen, Ed and Chris really got their money's worth, didn't they? Was good to see the standards you all reached towards the end of the day (I left a bit before 4pm).

My photos suck, but for future reference, does anyone know how to take a 16-image shot (in Burst mode) and download it onto my PC as individual photos so I can create a GIF animation file? d00dz?

Maybe I should have just shot them in video mode. Oh well...

I used a really old program (Paint Shop Pro 5 Animation - 18MB's) to grab all the jpg's and shrink it's resolution and then put them in a animation, all by clicking some "next" icons :stupid: .

A few vids: (I'll have another few more up later tonite)

Hi Guys!

Wow - what can I say?

Was a freakin awesome day!

To all the guys who were ou there with me, you guys were great and did an awesome job!

I loved it out there, and want to do more of them!

Thanks to all the spectators who came and supported the club :stupid:

Now to look at all the photos and such!

Dude I reckon two more goes and you are ready for the G1 comp.

ya reckon? i was starting to feel really confident towards the end but getting used to different tyres all the time really made it hard, she didnt do too badly for just coilovers as only suspension mods....

im going nuts on the suspension mods, swaybars, bushes arms, everything to tighten it up a bit more then ill have more feel and control for her... and hopefully a bit less or a bit more grip on the front end.. thats what i was battling with....

A front bar, lots of tyres and a funky wheel alignment were my only battle scars

Adam, thanks mate it was a great day!

When is the next one! Im eager for more sideways action!!!!!

Huh, I was sitting in the same area...amazing ehhhh. Maybe because we do not know each other? How about we organize a social day when we can meet and talk .... and manage to put a face to ..people names...hehehehe

Maybe next time.....

EUG.

Wow thats bad, have sauer's next to us and dont even know it :)

Just want to say that the drift day was magic...Well done to all the guys that got out there and tryed it :( by the afternoon you were really getting the hang of it and finding your groove and it looked aweome.. :blush:

    • This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.
    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
