they are stressing that tailem bend is here offering day time praccies for less, demand has been there, even moreso for a long time, but like i said, mallala wont do anything until it effects their business, like drifters being swayed away from mallala for the more appealing tailem bend.

haha i really cbf'd touching them til today and seeing what i had.

hey mate, dont have any pics, but here's some details on them: 2x 225/45 - Continental ContactSport II - 60% tread - $90pr 2x 225/45 - Goodyear/Wanli (mismatched pair) - 60-70% tread - $70pr the rest of the tyres can be seen here: http://nissansilvia.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=454913 dont wanna spam this thread with my crap.

nice.

btw i have a ridiculous amount of tyres atm, let me know if u need anything to skid on, tonnes of mismatched pairs with good tread, perfect for skids 15" 195/50 - matched and unmatched 195/55 - matched and unmatched 16" 205/55 - matched and unmatched 225/50 - matched and unmatched 17" 205/50 - matched 215/45 - matched and unmatched 225/45 - matched and unmatched 235/45 - matched and unmatched 245/45 - matched 18" 225/40 - matched and unmatched 235/40 - unmatched

yeh but getting the true backing of many is near impossible in the drift world, no one really wants to stand up and do something, would rather sit on their computers and complain on the forums unfortunately. like i said, i have put ideas to them in the past, and i will have a chat with them on the 14th. last time i talked about the 3 group layout they said they didnt think it worked when they used it, i dont know how they came up with that conclusion.

haha been there done that, 1 person doesnt mean anything if the rest of the drifters sit back and just accept what ever happens. the reason i post it on the forum is to promote ideas, and possibly influence people into putting similar ideas to rob. mallala will only react to something that will be harder, or cost them $$, if it will effect them (loss of business)

it's just for the newbie group, as i said on NS, if ur good enough to be tandeming ur good enough to be in group 1 so i dont see how its really going to effect most people, just the guys who go out in bashers without much skill and do sketchy tandems (which will be sad to see go, so much entertainment lol). unfortunately being in Aus, every crash takes a toll on our sport, anyone on the sidelines would have seen what was pretty f**king hektik out on the track last time. if we continue having sketchiness like that, cams will crack down on us. my proposal is we need flaggers on corner 1, but unfortunately that costs $$. what was happening there was a very serious risk, even i will admit that, people sitting stationary on turn 1, while people fly in at over 90k's, a good T-bone at decent speeds will kill you, if not leave u very immobile. this is a risk with tandems, especially newbie tandems, but it's mostly a risk with people simply coming in and not paying attention, which 90% of the time is what happens. they're like police/gov tho, it's only worth improving safety if it doesnt cost anything. realistically there should be 3 groups, and improved communication/efficiency. a newbie group for those that have only been out a few times, no tandems, no inflated ego's, just a session for those who have bugger all confidence and dont wanna be out with the better guys who have the confidence, but not the skill. a intermediate group, for those who have been out to a few days, have some confidence under their sleeve, but not that skilled yet. can tandem, no more than 2 cars tho. then a advanced group, tandems, up to 4 cars together. groups need to be released immediately after the last car in the previous group passes the pits, the car should be called over the radio so they know the last car in that group that needs to go through. if a tyre stack has been knocked over off the track, not an obstacle, then f**kING LEAVE IT.

ill swing u a SMS later on in the day, im booked up in the morning, but after about 11 ill be free as a bird.

ill be creating some contraption out of scrap parts and multiple tools to get some thing, and my old man will go into the shed, grab some gadget still in its packet and start trying to use that. some times works, usually the contraption is better tho lol

dun dun, 15's on the way good sir, 195/50's and 195/55's, ill do u special prices cos ur a good lay also got some 225/50 and more 205/55 16's in the pipeline, come have a suspect of them and see if u like anything u see.

haha yeh most of my tools are cheap, we just have heaps of little gadgets just cos we run into stupid situations where ull need something weird.

"hey, u remember me? we did that stuff at that place. anyway how but u let me use ur hoist for old times sake?"

got 1 eagle F1 205/55 R16 haha got a fair few 205/55's, but ur average stuff, nothing high performance.

ive got tonnes of 235/45 R17 skidders if anyone is keen.

haha yeh its farkin handy, but also means all ur mates wanna come round and use ur garage haha

haha its been a slow process, came from working on bricks covered with saw dust with sketchy jack stands
