A Bed Time Story

[markimak]

yeah sorry I didnt mean that exact car the turbo set up looked the same (Rx6 kit of some sort) as the car I was in

yep the apexi series turbos are a work of art.. cost a mint but im sure they are worth it..

how did u find urs andy.?

also pitty they are soo damn rare

now back on topic.. i rather watch drifting than drag..

[shanef]

ok ok, i'll admit it, i dont mind watchin it, when its actually on. On the weekend, there was about 30mins of actual drifting, then about 2 hrs of nothing, plain nothing.

U go to a wednesday nite tnt at the bank, farking people galore, and non stop racing. Well until a stupid bogan in their v8 blows up and dumps oil everythwere lol

yay.. now to convince noel.. and... yeah it is shit waiting in the hot ipswich sun

anyway im gonna get ready to head out to archerfield to watch the drifting ther.. $20 for 5 laps.. good price.. but the 180sx VLSD is as loose as shanes mum during schoolies..

ya'll think that they will hold the drifting even though its raining..?

[Bunta]

That's because of head work. I keep telling people to think about porting and cam selection but it is rarely considered as important. The fact that stock SR camshafts have something like 10mm of lift and a nice midrange duration is the reason they bring the bigger turbos on faster. That and also being a 4 cyl helps due to the exhaust pulsation being stronger over a shorter time. 2.0L is spread out over only 4 cyl rather than 6.

That's why the mines R34 GTR is so fast.

Big lift, small duration, high compression, medium size turbos. Perfect for a quick car. No high boost required

the 90 odd mm of stroke in a SR22 helps a bit as well!

One can only assume your joking

Thought for you all;

The first F&F focus on drag racing, then the second focused on street racing and then the third on drift, yeah...

o given the polularity of these movies does this mean all racing is cool except circuit?

Or could one assume the second version which really focused on street racing could be taken as circuit as it had turns and stuff???

Deep questions tonight

Sidenote: My opinion, Ill watch anything which mix's Cars with chicks.

That said I would find it hard to pay to watch drifiting, I would however pay to watch a circuit, hillclimb, timeattack or drag race happily.

That said, nothing is more important to me than Bathurst in the motorsport calander (OCT 4-7 2007)!!!

of course im joking.. i find the first movie the most comical movie ever.. 'it dont matter if u win by an inch or a mile.. winnings winning.' ahahaha

i just wanted to see how shitty they are compared to some of australias finest.. yes thats right.. ther is some far better local talent then in that movie.. even thou rhys millen was the stunt driver and tsychia actually drove the evo on the mountain..

its such a ricey movie..and its painful to say that it portrays a rather shitty image for the motorsport. could have done better. but i guess kids rather a AWD evo converted to RWD and a vinyl graphics 350z crew with neons.. neons are in and u get 10 extra style points per glowstick.

and hell yes ther is some nice japanesey chickies in the movie....

[r33_racer]

markimak...its not that i dont like you...well i probably wouldnt if i met you in RL(probably cause im carnt)...its just that i find almost everything you say extremely annoying for alot of reasons i cant explain. I also find it funny how you take the crap that gets thrown your way all the time so well, but atleast you throw it back....sometimes.

I dont intend for this to be rude by any means....but i just cant get over how silly some of things you say in certain threads are. I really cant....maybe its just me and not you lol.

P.S I would believe that you actually did hire out tokyo drift so you could improve your drifitng skills. Whether you claim it as a joke or not.

Geezm someone's got their cranky pants on today.

lol. Shane takes crap better than Mark does. But at the end of the day there is only one thing that needs to be said.....

my RB56 will dominate drift. It has a full Motec Exhaust!

I can understand the 'I'll watch anything which mix's Cars with chicks' statement.

But Bathurst! who wants to see a bunch of land barges crawl around a twisty track. All with same engines, same brakes, same tyres, same fuel setup?

Would you pay to watch drifting if chicks were involved?

quit calling drifting a motorsport. IT FARKING ISNT

how could it be the fastest growing motorsport in the world if it isnt motorsport???

[shanef]

how could it be the fastest growing motorsport in the world if it isnt motorsport???

it's not, plain and simple

nah i just dont see how it could be called a motorsport. all it is is ppl trying to link a few corners together with a slide, throw in another car and see them go at it.

How farking boring is that

and who says its the fastest growing "sport" in the world? seeing the attendance at the nations on the weeked, u get 10x the people at a wednesday nite test & tune at the drags. u even get more people watching the topgear, or sprint champs than the drifting.

[Eug]

yeah because deep and meaningful conversations while effortlessy drifting on the mountain in my rx8 by moonlight is sooooooo totally hawt..

all drag racing is trying to get a car 400m down the road faster than the guy next to you, theres not even corners involved.

all hillclimbs are is stringing a set of coners together and trying to get to the top quicker than all the others.

all V8 supercars are is trying to BARGE your way to the front.

all drift is in a battle sense is trying to stick as close to you opponent as possible to pass them, only catch is you are doing it sideways at between 40-180kph.

as you can see there is a reoccuring theme here of trying to beat, pass or go faster than the next guy.

ITS ALL MOTORSPORT

[shanef]

sorry ben, but ur arguement is flawed. the flaw being drifinting aint a sport
