It was a great day, good to see so much SAu representation.

There were blue shirts everywhere! :)

It was also nice to see some decent 'old school' representation, with the likes of BOWSER, ONTRYL, a red silhouette, and a really nice DR30.

Here are a few of my pics.

Was a great, made even better when i got in for free, thanks to my mate's Calder Offical pass :). His car was the XA coupe parked inside near the Calder Park office.

Was great to meet all the usual people and to see all the blue T-shirts.

Can't wait till the next Drift Practice day :).

Those are the "Thunder Cops"

They provided a bit of entertainment.

I first saw them at last years EasterNats and was blown away by their performance.

I can't imagine the skill involved in keeping a car up on 2 wheels like that.

Damn.. I barely have enough balance to walk upright!

They drove around a whole section of the track on 2 wheels, and the chick passenger gets out of the car and stands up straddling the window with her arms in the air.

I have a few more angles of the car........

I'm agreeing with everyone here, it was an awesome day and anyone that didn't go, or left early missed out on a hell of a lot.

Those Jap D1 drives need to do some classes for the aussie drivers or something because there weren't any other cars that were anywhere near as good.

All the drift pics look great people (just need more of the dancing girl that couldn't keep her top up).

As soon as a date is set for the drift nats, i'll be booked in again.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
