Msf Shootout 2009

Hi all

ive heard some rumours about a so called MSF SHOOTOUT happening on the 21/2/09

i think its the D1 Street Legal class, correct me if i am wrong.

Ive heard it will be at Ebisu but i am not 100% certain.

Im interested in dates and where the event is taking place if anybody can re-assure me

Im trying to organise a trip to Japan for early 09 and i would love to fit in some drift action such as this.

I know that the actual D1 drift calendar doesnt start until 29/3 at Ebisu, the thing is i kinda wanna go there within the 1st two months of 09 for personal reasons (more like the wifey's reasons).

Also has anyone ever been to a D1 event and or a STREET LEGAL event and which one is better??

Im kinda tossing up which one would be best to see.

Any more light that could be shed upon this topic would be great

Thanks

The date is right, but they haven't set a venue yet. It was at Fuji Speedway earlier this year.

The drivers are top-scoring ones from the D1SL Regional class who qualified for a D1SL licence for 2009.

A friend has qualified for it this time around, so I'll probably be going.

    • I know there's been no posts for 3 years, but figured it wasn't worth starting a new thread for my question. The nice Japanese lady in my V36 occasionally/randomly speaks to me whilst I'm driving.  Of course my Japanese is very rusty, I'm guessing it's to do with the Nav system? Anyone have knowledge on this?
    • there are probably many ways to do it for my bosch motorsport abs we used a r33 gtst abs front knuckle and modified the rear knuckle to allow sensor to sit and read understand time, effort and $$ but reading from anywhere else  you get diff chatter etc where you lose 30% ish in signal clarity compared to the above
    • Little more work!  Did some body work on the rear wheel arches and since the paint was a cheap spray job before figured I’d do something to tide me over until I wrap the car.    Colour might not be everyone’s choice but I like it and it’s only temporary, just hate having primer from the wheel arches standing out.    Keeping an eye out for a decent set of wheels to throw on now. Wheels and tires on the car are junk
    • Its likely to be 70% road 30% track usage, track usage will increase if anything. Decided not to fit it as I cant be arsed changing the bushes on my LCAs again 🤣 I did get the below back from GKTech though so they should work together     The anti-squat kit and roll center adjusters work independently since they change the rear lower control arm's angle in different ways. The anti-squat kit adjusts the angle from front to back, which impacts anti-squat values. Roll center adjusters change the angle side to side, mainly to correct geometry on cars that are significantly lowered. They might affect each other a tiny bit, but overall, you can think of them as separate.
    • What are you doing with the car? street car or race car? People get hung up on the squat of the s/r chassis rears. There is positives to the squat if a car is setup and driven correctly for it (correct ride height, spring rate, alignment, damper valving). Generally just lengthen the rear traction arm by 5-10mm and that will help the squat and bump steer too. You are also correct with the roll centre too. This too also needs to be adjustable if you start messing with suspension geometry.   Having done quiet a bit of testing on race cars this year in regards to rear squat, I've seen some big positives from it in regards to drive off corners and traction.
