i would like 2 see more drift and Circuit;

In perth i don't really think there is anywhere 2 do the both on a weekly base. During the drag season evey wed night is open for street cars which i think is a really good idea, maybe we could get somelike that going for drift and circuit.

But then again i don't think any of that could not happen withone someone wanting to spouncers that type of stuff but i could be wrong

I was under the impression that there is a regular drift day at Qld raceway and isn't there at least one drift club in Bris? MRE where are you??.

I think the success of Power Cruise indicated one direction we'll be heading.

Drag Combat is back ....bigger and better.

The new AAA organisation will be making track days more frequent and more accessable eg at Qld this year...10 x Level 1 days and 10 x Level 2 days.

Apart from the distance involved nothing could be easier than getting on the track at Morgan Park.

In the more traditional scene there is a choice of Hillclimbs, Gymkanas, rallies, Khanocross,lap dashes etc every weekend.

BOOSTMEISTER ommitted one choice from his Poll...ie...All of the above. That would have been my choice

Please let it be circuit!!! The whole cruising up busy streets/drifting/neon lights blah blah is a load of BS. If ya got a wicked car and ya think ya got skills, take it to the track. There is no better place to test an all round car and all round driver. Any lame ass beatch can flick the ass out, power slide through a corner and chew up tyres.

/rant off

Just my opinion so dont flame me for havin it ;P

The australian car scene needs some better direction and less wanky ricer mobiles out there being driven by people who think that because they have big rims and a stereo, that their car is a performance car, sports car, or luxury car. wrong. its just a big rice mobile. And to 3/4 of the luxury car owners, who drive their riced up cars like its a sports car - get a grip - you bought a luxury car, stop driving to be a boy racer.

here is a link to a site that is going to help shape the NEW aussie car scene!

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
