Deca Wrap Up Thread

[emts]

Thanks to all the organizers and volunteers for sacrificing their spare time to run an awesome event. Without these people, such events would not exist. THANK-YOU!

I had a ball as usual. There should be a "Best Entertainer" category. Where you lack in driving talent you make up with smoke!

Hope there are plenty of pics!

this the sort of thing u looking for Al?

[llama_au]

Keen on footage as well, fingers crossed someone caught the green Datsun's short defiance of gravity!

haha, hopefully. I thought he was going to topple. That was some massive two wheel action

Thanks the Leon, Wayne, Shane & Crew for letting me stay with them, and Leon and Wayne and Rob for taking me out on the skidpan in the afternoon. Glad I could help, I should have brought a chair though. Legs and back are a bit sore today from so much standing Lots of a great driving, and of course some entertaining skids courtesy of Al as per usual hehe

My hat has made it back to Melbourne, but someone popped my cock and balls balloon last night

To anyone who cares, I started learning to drive manual today when I got back. I'm wrecked

good event guys, organising the food van was a great idea, saves a lot of time for the committee and offers some different food

some of the battles looked fantastic, and very challenging. the driving skills of some of the guys has improved ten fold all round

one that came to mind was the p plater in the 33 GTS he was amazing for a p plater and handled very well

[Al]

Martin THANKS!!

I will send my request on Wednesday

Also forgot to say a BIG THANKS to Dave (Gazelle D), for helping me out with my fire extinguisher, my day could have been over before it started. THANKS MATE

Thanks to all the organizers and volunteers.

Also a big thanks to all photographers, I think all will agree that getting photos/video's after the event of your car is one of the most exciting parts of the experience since we never get to see ourselves from the outside.

I lost my nerve in a big way after nearly tipping the car over in a place that you shouldn't be able to roll a car and will contribute that to being a couple of seconds off the pace on the wangs but I know frysie and Russ won't take any excuses!

I really enjoyed watching nick thrash his new GTR until it carked it (I hope it's not that bad mate) as well as Tim in the silver machine. It's also a pleasure to watch Chris/Ryan going out time and again throwing down clean runs. Did you guys end up deciding who's car you're going to both drive to finally settle who's the better peddler?

Haha thanks yeah was my first time out there but was so much fun, even in the non turbo i cant wait for the next DECA to come!

And now that I have my CAMS license i can start going to some other track events which should be good.

Thanks also to the photographers got some nice pics there

No probz AL, i will always do what i can to help ! ironicly i needed help after my first 80% run on long/mini wang as i had discovered my seat belt buckle had issues

I was able to rectify the problem and was let back in out of sequence by bec, THANK You !

unfortunetly i was unable to take passengers from there on but my mates michael and mark helped me rip my seats out in minutes to try rectify the problem. I'll probly invest in some bucket's and harness before next meet.

To anyone who cares, I started learning to drive manual today when I got back. I'm wrecked

Does that mean that there is a manual conversion for the Pulsar on the cards, some time soon(before next DECA)?

[Russman]

I lost my nerve in a big way after nearly tipping the car over in a place that you shouldn't be able to roll a car and will contribute that to being a couple of seconds off the pace on the wangs but I know frysie and Russ won't take any excuses!

Yes you are correct

[Al]

LOL Al, NUTR33 is trying to steal your "Best Entertainer" making smoke reputation

Never said i would be the winner, but i would always give it a good shot

[Russman]

Somebody say LAUNCH!?!

Sick drivin mate!

[Ant97GTR]

Awesome event and a big thanks to the organisers and volunteers

Can't wait to see the vids from the pan I haven't done DECA for at least 3 years and that was in the gtst...while I didn't miss the elec problems I had with the gtst at the time I realized that I missed those handbrake turns after my first run on the pan

Was some great driving by all and good to see that there were no 'incidents' - Nick I hope all isn't bad news and that you'll be back out there in no time.

[G.I. Jew]

Great weekend as usual & big thanks to the volunteers & Micolour for their support!

I reckon we should get the Lions van to cater at Taco Baz's place in future...

Daz.

Thanks to all involved for running a top event............... I had a ball.

And yes, I think Taco Bill's need to lift their game if they expect people to go back there.
