Can i have the radiator and tower brace?

I am bored..... Don't know what happened to Alan, but these things don't organise themselves. Initially this idea was proposed on the R31 Skyline Club forum. You guys must know how the two clubs don't really mingle and it might have even put some people off. Anyway, a new thread will probably be created once details are finalised.

Turismo came out for a drift. So did Mang, but his excuse for not hitting the track was "he was thinking of an excuse"

Do you work with Michele? Everybody don't forget to come out tomorrow.

Protest, but I would prefer in the bounds of the law, as annoying as possible. Like filling up the NCA's carpark so they can't park anywhere.... hehehe.

Two Drift Day? Awesome! Expensive but Awesome! Why not enter while your at it . Sounds like rain is forecast so should be easy to slide and you won't need spares.

Thought this would happen... ***IMPORTANT UPDATE*** Due to the lack of interest this day will now be a No Speed Limit Day and Drift Day. If you want to come for a thrash on the track you can pay on the day.

I can have a look for you and install it if it's not installed properly. Won't take more than 10mins, unless you've done something funky. The last time I helped someone install one, they decided to install it on a line to the Carbon canister.

I just heard a Drift Australia Driver 'Luke Jacobs' passed away in the Victoria Fires.

Lol, is that all It's not about power, it's how much smoke you make.... sideways!!!

Sounds like another car club (Preludes) is trying to organise a cruise. http://nissansilvia.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=364907

Won't go to this one because it conflict with a Drift Day. I'll also make my car more identifiable so you won't get me confused with Reese - seeing how our driving is so similar.

Yep, that's fine!

Here is a clip from my still camera... (annoying digital zoom)

Here are a couple of pics for an idea of how the day went: http://s129.photobucket.com/albums/p210/St...rulan%20310109/

Hmm, i might come out for a little bit... Need sleep tho... And a video camera, if anyone has one they can lend me for tomorrow...

Hey, I will be leaving Canberra abit before 8:00am tomorrow morning. Getting brekky at Maccas Goulburn and hopefully getting there around 9:00-9:30am.

Not tonight, got to get up early for watching drifting tomorrow.

From Pete: For anyone interested(from sydney) on cruising down with us, we will be meeting at Camden Valley Way McDonalds at 6:30 and departing at 6:45. It is located right near the M5 and M7 intersection for those who are unsure where it is. From here we will be travelling down and stopping at the BP to top up on juice and then heading to the track which is only another 10 -15 minutes drive. When we get there, not much will be happening for the first 1hr to 1-1/2 so if you want to sleep in a little and come later then you won't miss out on too much. Please be aware that this is not a full tilt drift day, there will be stopages throughout the day for discussions with drivers and so on so don't be expecting too much. If you want to check out the track, then you are more then welcome to come. It will more then likely start around the normal start time of 9-930am and finish around the 4:30 mark. Here are the directions on how to get there.

http://www.mdtc.com.au/directions/index.html Jerrara is not a very wide road, so be careful with opposing traffic. I'll try and look it up on Google later.

Hey guys, IDA have organised to a "Test" Drift Day at the new Marulan Driver Training Centre, 31 Jan 2009. This day is being used as a trial for suitability for future drift days. Anyway, they have arrange for a few Drift Australia Drivers as well as some other experienced drivers to come and test out the Track. It looks like a very fun track and reminds me of some jap tracks. Myself and Quakin will be heading up on Saturday morning to have a look. I timed the Drive from Marulan to Civic yesterday and it was exactly a 1 hour drive.
