those races are always good to watch heaps of different categories in the one day nicely packaged

was a very good day, first time i had watched grip racing at mallala, fark they are fast, i wanna give grip a go one day for sure.

The drift boys put on a awesome show too. People in the crowd i dont think new what to make of it the first time as it was still wet, so the guys were bit slower with little or no smoke, 2nd time it had cleared up and they were hitting full speed and bellowing the smoke, crowd loved it, jaws dropped, lots of ooohhhss and aahhhhssss. Think next weekend will pick up a few more spectators now cause of it.
