Initial Drift Australia will be holding it's first dyno day on the 29th of May. It will be held at RICOL Automotive Unit 11/12 Norman St Peakhurst The day will kick off at 8am and go till late, and will be a first come first served basis. We will also have membership forms, stickers and t-shirts available on the day so if you want to join up, pretty your car up with a sticker or maybe yourself with a shirt come on down. We will also have drinks and a sausage sizzle on the day to raise money for the club so bring some change. Runs will be $30 for members and, $40 for non-members. Who will take out the the day?!? You gotta be in it to win it people, take the title and credit for being the winner of the FIRST IDA Dyno day See you all there

1st Question yes and free 2nd one Yes oh am i the yes man or what

for low speed and beginner then use a second hand tyre with less then 50% tread depth and one with out blocks on the tread pattern. For high speed drift then use good quality tyres with a nice soft compound as you will need to control the drift and it is hard to do at high speed with crap rubber. As for high speed keep the same wheels as you have on the front as using the stock wheels will make it also harder to control. Try stretching the rubber a bit to make the side walls have less flex. Hope this has helped.

That is very disapointing to here I can only hope that another promoter can take over the reigns and continue the good work were procar left off

Sorry mate the discount apply's for members of Initial Drift Australia. I hope to see some of the Skylines Australia people out there showing the V8's and Silvias how it is done

Also In-car assistance will be available for those just starting out in the sport. To be consistent with D1 Grand Prix in Japan, we will be using D1 rules. For those not familiar with D1, the event format will be as follows: Qualifying will be judged through a series of corners which will be disclosed on the day. The top 16 qualifiers will be placed into 4 groups of 4 according to their skill level. They will then participate in a 'battle stage' i.e. 2 cars drifting simultaneously, one behind the other, where the intent is to out-drift the opponent in front of you while keeping as little distance as possible between the two cars. Each competitor has one lap only each in chasing, Loser being eliminated and the winner carrying on to the next Battle Round. Judging Criteria, In consistency with D1, is based on 5 factors; speed, drift angle, closeness to the leading car, style (which includes noise & tyre smoke), and crowd appeal.

Guys The Event Has Been Sold Out Sorry

your tyres are so hard that i think u will get about 10 drift days out of em

Bascially it is cheaper to have an event on a weekday, our other events are on a weekend but we thought that it would give people some extra time on a friday 5pm - 8pm to get out at a lot cheaper price. $50.

Hey guys come along and check it all out. It will be a great night, and if u want to get on the track then check out the site.
