Bruised ribs bucky?

fat4D, not much petrol is used, it's a fairly easy day on the car, biggest problem is the cleaning after.

I figured you'd just end up with both a dirty carbra and car.

Wouldn't recommend the carbra. The dirt in the water gets absolutely everywhere! You'll be finding little patches of black dirt throughout your car for months afterwards!

Well, when I was last there in my R33 I needed the handbrake, but to slow down, not get sideways! By using the handbrake to slow you down while drifting, you can maintain your slide throughout the entire circuit...

Anyway, looking forward to this!

Done and Dusted for another year...

Thanks to all those who attended this event.. Had a good turn out of spectators as well as keen drivers.

I would like to say that their where no mishaps BUT thats not the case... Somebody with a Kenne Bell XR8 Ute spat a serpintine belt after 2 min.. Finally put the belt back on with thanks to Chris @ Bluepower as the owner couldn't work out how it went.. Then back on the Skid Pan and BANG the belt broke.. So that was it for the Ute on the day..

Thanks to Davo for letting the owner of the Kenne Bell XR8 Ute use his car to participate inthe rest of the day..

Also Thanks to Davo for being the Master Chef and bringing the bbq and food..

enough dribble...
Here are some pics..
Sorry I have not got pics of everybody as I had a mishap transfering them..

Kyle..





Davo..






Bill..





Trystan..

Love the Slide Off between James and Trystan. Both very competent drifters!

I actually made it out for an hour in the afternoon for a bit of a looksy and a few photos. Looked like a heap of fun.
