Beginner's Training Day And Drift Introduction - Tues 9th September


Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

We have been asked... so we are answering the call! Finally... a beginner's training day that is open to complete beginner's for their first on track experience, through to slightly experienced/been to archy a few times. We are organising a drift day that will have a maximum of 14 drivers which will be split into two seperate groups... preferably level 1 and level 2 going by experience. All drivers will have a walk around the track to learn the corners and certain points that they should be made aware of. We will have 7 cars on track at one time with an instructor in each car for the duration of their laps giving advice, car setup pointers if need be and also just a bit of friendly advice and shed their experience with you. Two donut spots will also be set up for a certain amount of time to learn throttle control... this is great fun and really does help with controlling the revs. The instructors will also be bringing their own cars out on track and you are able to jump in with them to see what they do (eg. when they use handbrake, clutch kick, entries and exits to the turns, etc.) As every instructor will be taking care of only two drivers throughout the day, they will be able to monitor your progress and note areas that need improving.

Introducing the instructors:

It will be held on Tuesday 9th September from 5-8.30pm. It is now booked in so we are now able to start taking pre-entries. First 14 payments received will have guaranteed positions on the night.

Cost will be $100 per driver and will only be allowed to bring 2 pit crew/spectators with them as this is a beginner's day... we aren't trying to have a huge crowd.

This will be a great day that shouldn't be missed by anyone that is wanting to get into drifting with a head start above the rest. You can pre-enter on the Option1Garage website HERE

Any questions... fire away!

Thanks,

Em

This sounds great. But im a bit low on cash to be drifting my car.

Will there be another one?

Hey,

We will be more than likely but for the time being, we have only planned this one. Will post up any details of future events as they become available.

Thanks,

Emma.

    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
