Bl4cK32 Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 I think you will find an hour or two trip will get you from the northern most suburbs to the southern suburbs, depending on traffic. Adelaide is a very small town. I will be taking mine out once its done. They have drift and racing there...go for it Tell us what you think compared to your regular haunt Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/46214-mallala-practice-days/#findComment-939407 Share on other sites More sharing options...

9krpm Posted July 19, 2004 Share Posted July 19, 2004 :wishful thinking: it would be nice if the organiser for the drift event could combine some circuit driving and drifting together. I think there would be more competitors and spectators.
