I heard that vic drift were going to be having days at calder sometime in the future. Is there any truth to that?

Next year maybe :)

We helped Calder get their wed nights back to their former glory with heaps of flow and passengers can now be taken(check rule and regs)

Calder also are running a beginers section like the fullock guys used to run. With Chris Dejager as Tutor to sit in with first timers.

sounds good! but is a bit expensive.. 90bucks for entry.. but i guess it worth it.. ill be there on the 27th at calder >_<

We run 20 cars for 20 minutes at Winton on the track. Most drivers get 4 or 5 laps in each session. A set of scrap tyres will only last 4 or 5 laps(unless you drive a sprinter! lol) so it works well you get sent in just when you run out of tyres! by the time you take a piss and change tyres its time to go back out again!

Calder is keen to support drift and is rumored to be holding a skid pan thing in the thunder dome(Pit lane) in the near future!

Yay masive figure 8's :laughing-smiley-014:

yeah my brother was at winton last time, he thought it worked perfect.. i will be there on sat!! but i will be starting on the beginners course to get the hang of things with my car, as i havnt driven it for months

The beginer section has been shut down permenantly at winton due to track damage.

Calder drift nights still have beginers section and hopefully we at Vicdrft will have some Days at Deca just for beginers.

Beginers are still welcome at winton and will be given plenty of space between cars to make them feel comfortable.

you wouldnt be expecting much from beginners will you?

its bound to have some track damage because people are all over the place when you are beginning.. like i was

Yeah we know this. But unfortunately Winton can not afford to keep repairing the track after

each drift meet.

VicDrift will organize something new for beginers soon.

Come to calder if you can. Beginers section there is great.

Calder is great if you have a roll cage cause you can take passengers and i hear soon they intend to concrete up to the wall "under the bridge" section which will make for some good spectating as drivers link the esse's to the last corner in one slide!

there was 64 cars at the last wed drift practice there, awsome turnout.

ill be at the next calder on the 29th.. was a shame hitting that barrier but ill be out again before the 33 comes off the road to get another turbo setup...

love the track, very fast

    • I believe Unimog is the only vehicle that has it (from the manufacturer). I haven't seen aftermarket permanently connected kits, but I haven't looked either.
    • Ha ha ha, can't overthink when exhausted... Oh how I wish I had that power! I can be absolutely dead set shot, and my brain will still go "we need a good 3 or 4 hours to just think about everything and anything before you may sleep... My biggest thing is making sure I give myself enough sleep. I don't operate on even 7 hours of sleep! I attempt to give my body 9.5hours sleep a night to be able to function. I don't sleep the whole 9.5, but I need to make sure I offer a big window. I also take a single supplement, which is to help with long term health, and fighting inflammation, and I notice it helps massively. Especially me sleeping, and just less "achey" in the body. Have also kicked sugar, and gluten. A majority of people with ADHD don't go well with gluten. It causes a really interesting natural opioid overdose in the brain, which causes bodily issues and sensory issues.
    • Yeah that's what I meant, permanently connected not manual
    • Yep. But typically that's just run a hose down to the tyre while stationary.   Oh and the Unimog will automatically air up and air down tyres from the onboard computer for you too.
    • There was a good video somewhere, maybe Kurzgesagt that linked physical activity to ADHD/Anxiety/Insomnia etc. Basically the body WILL spend energy doing something if you don't spend it doing anything physical. It isn't fun, but I personally have noticed I've never been overthinky, or unable to sleep if I'm physically exhausted from doing a lot. The musings around it seem to indicate that this is one of the reasons/mechanism that physical activity improves mental health/wellbeing etc, by more or less not using that 'extra' energy to overthink, be anxious, inflammation, etc. There's also the fact that every obnoxious exerciser ever says it's great and helps which is extremely annoying. Like people who say the same thing about travel being the best thing ever. I mean, they clearly are, but blah. I started doing a LITTLE myself (think 3x15min per week) and honestly did notice the benefits, aiming at life quality when older. Which is sooner than you think. Getting something into your routine that you can actually make a routine has helped me at least. This post brought to you by procrastination between sets.
