I had an awesome day, but unfortunately I had to pull out 1/2 way through the battles due to clutch problems.

A big thanks to the organisers, volunteers and to Micolour for sponsorship of the event.

Hey all! A big thumbs up to the organisers and officials. I was super impressed with how well the day flowed. Brilliant!

I unfortunately wasn't driving, but ended up "navigating" in Ryans VL turbo. We had an absolute blast and I will definatly try and get to the next one.

As for the aftermath.... Lots to drink, a disagreement with a local, and we scored a free ride back to the hotel in a divvy van! Good times!

Cheers and thanks

Glen.

EDIT: Are there any results/times posted anywhere or going to be?

Very entertaining.

Monstrous cloud of smoke on the basketball court, another cloud of dust appears in the distance, took out a cone, and that was only the 80% run!

Yer well, I left it out last DECA and the three hour drive each way sucked a big one!!! :(

Seriously I am so over having to refit everything into my boot after hardly any sleep on Saturday night and the mission home. I may just very well leave it all in next time. Bolted to the chassis will pass scrutineering won't it?

I was on the chicane in question :banana:.

Over the mic "Driver off the tarmac"

: "everything ok?"

: "yes"

: "did he make it through the chicane"

: "Ahhh... yes :("

: "Any cones?"

: "nope :) just lots of dust"

Yep, as far as I know anything bolted to the chassis is fine. My subwoofer on the other hand relies on its own weight :(

I fail to see how anything from the boot can reach the drivers seat in the cabin but rules are rules :)

what a weekend, ive only been home for a hour and unpacked.....and i must say it was a awesome long weekend even tho i was crippled. i don't think i'll be driving home ever again on a sunday after a big weekend.

Leigh i hope you do more drinking before you come out with us next time. LOL 2 of the guys threw up this morning ;)

And as a volunteer i'm glad to say iv'e done some time and enjoyed it, altho i was unable to participate in the afternoon and hearing a driver Failed to stop i'm glad i wasn't on the pan in a wheelchair then.

can't wait till next deca. catch

HAHA @ Angry Marks performance at DECA. Were very proud of your smoke shows ;) and the cloud of dust was funny too!

Just want to says a big THANKS to Ryan, Chris, Bec and the many other people that help make this happen so successfully each time, especially the timers and other volunteers.

I had a great time as per usual, was just a shame that I only saw Saturday night out to 10:30pm :\ I miss The Aussie antics.

Also thanks to Martin and Anna for getting some awesome shots, hope to see more soon.

My next-DECA resolution is less drinking for more consistent times!

Nice video you got off me, I think it was the only time I didn't spin out ;)
