Extreme motorsport Battle slides into Winton

Drifters revved up to fight for title of Drift Champion in

simultaneous battles both on and off the track.

Saturday, September 8th 2007, sees Winton Motor Raceway play host to this year’s hottest Drift event, the Driftline Drift Attack.

Organised by the Victorian Drift Club, Pro Class and Street class drivers will be competing in fierce rubber smoking battles for the win; fighting hard for a prize pool worth over $5000! With so much at stake, drivers will undoubtedly put on a crazy, heart pumping performance to claim the winnings.

Originating in Japan, Drift is an alternate form of motor sport to the common drag and circuit racing. Described as a controlled slide into oversteer it is carried out through a serious of continuous corners; it’s not a race of time but rather a race of style; like figure skating for cars.

The Driftline Drift Attack event offers spectators the rare chance to strap in for a white knuckle ride with an Australian Pro Drifter in his finely tuned beast, so they can really experience the exhilaration of sideways action first hand.

A must see highlight in the day’s jam packed agenda is the Team Drift Competition; teams of up to 5 cars hit the track simultaneously and aim to mimic one another’s, speed, line and angle creating a compelling display of skill and wits in order to impress the judges and crowd alike.

The Show & Shine display sees a collection of Victoria’s finest pimped cars flaunting their wild paint jobs, pounding audio systems and static visual tricks for the pleasure of patrons to admire and be inspired.

Bragging a Victorian first, the day will also host simultaneous drifting both on and off the track thanks to the Radio Controlled Drift Club battling out a competition for title of RC Drift Champion.

Australia’s leading Drift retailers in parts and accessories are participating at the event in Trade displays, demonstrating and offering first hand advice on their latest products and services for those interested in modifying their car.

With the amalgamation of so much drift related activity in the one spot, this jam packed, action pumping, pimped day is one you don’t want to admit to your mates you missed.

Be there, Driftline Drift Attack at Winton Motor Raceway, Saturday, September 8th 2007. Winton Motor Raceway, 2 minutes off the Hume Highway, 9 km’s north east of Benella Victoria and a mere 1.5 hours North of Melbourne.

Hi Luke.

I'll allow this post to stay for now, however its really not following the forum guidelines.

Its giving free advertising to Driftline (and other sponsors), where they are not a sponsor/trader of SAU.

The policy is such that businesses can advertise, once paying trader/advertising fee's.

Whilst all companies are sponsors, they are still gaining promotion via advertising on this forum to which they are contributing nothing.

(and when hosting was costing nearly 4 figures a month, it adds up fast)

Cheers

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
