being pretty busy afterwards, i didnt really get much chance to wait around see my pics, so is there any way we can get a preview, even if its thumbnail size or has a massive watermark across it? :)

What an awesome event/day!!!!!!

Big thanks to all the DD team, D1 instructors and Jarrod (R32Big_boy) for all the cool pics with his huge ass professional camera gear, that CD is worth every dollar mate. Thanks guys for giving up a Saturday arvo to teach us want-to-be drifters how the job is done :)

Waiting in anticipation for the next one!! So Kev get the ball rollin' mate :)

Luke (nutr33) time for you to hit winton, with the vicdrift mob, your farm learnt skills are wasted at a training day.

To those that are SAU VIC members hope to see you all at the next SAU DECA day, just as much fun, with more room to play :(.

Loved every second of it today id do it every weekend if i could.

i got scorched too.... still worth it ill try get the vid burnt asap maybe do it all next weekend

the d1 drivers were awsome i wanna learn to do what they do. maybe a few more days like this ay

im in for the next one

Hey all,

My name's John, I was at the drift day today, but I was one of the few people not driving a Skyline, I was driving the old BMW M5. I gotta hand it to you guys, I do heaps of track days with Driver Dynamics, and there are always more Skylines (mostly SAU members) than any other model of car, it's good to meet other people that share my passion for this stuff.

Met some new people today, and caught up with a lot of people that I had met before too.

This was my first drift day, although I did a skidpan day with Driver Dynamics out at Attwood a few years ago. I learnt heaps today, still got heaps more to learn so can't wait till the next one.

Anyway, just popped by to say hi, hope to see some of you guys again soon at another track day

Cheers

John

PS DVSMUM., I forgot to tell you something important about the camera that I had mounted on my car, the sound quality is not good at all unfortunatly, check my youtube vids to see what I mean. Ibeleive that they have released a newer model that has better sound, but I've never used it so I don't know. Next time, I might try drilling a hole in the waterproof case and see if that helps the sound at all.

yeah another great day from DD.

I had fun and it seems everyone elese did too...

pitty about the sunburn later however ;)

I'II see everyone at their next track day as my car look like it is now holding up nice.

What a great day, I didnt drive but helped out a little bit, was great to see everyone having such a great time, and everyone behaving themselves so well. Well done to Kev and the team and all the DA guys instructing.

Oh.....that black M5 is pure sex on wheels, love it.

There was a guy called Ryan in the group that I was in yesterday, drove a Grey Skyline (R33 i think?). Ryan, not sure if you're a member here or not, but if you are, please send me a PM, I have the video footage from when we attached the camera to your car, I can send it to you.

yeah when is the next one again? i think they said pretty soon i want in again.....

i should have some footage copied this week ill send to anyone that wants a copy of our group

i dont know how to youtube it?

anyway it would be better with spectators and id like to jump in with one of the DA team drivers again they were unbelivable.

im not sure what his name was but the guy with the stock r33. plates were DFTWPN. jumped in with him on the last run one word INSANE loved it........ crazy crazy crazy

Man that was my highlight of the day i would have paid just to do that all day

cheers for the lesson of how it should be done

    • Hey Daniel, sorry to hear that and thanks for posting up for us at a really hard time I only knew SmoothLine through the forums, we never met as we are based in different states, but when he was most active on here he was quite a while back so not many of the current crowd might remember him. I am pretty sure he was active in the Queensland SQU club but that is defunct now too (times are changing and we are all getting older). Farewell SmoothLine!    
    • Turns out depending on whether the car was equipped with TCS or not there are different signals coming to the dash, meaning there are different speedo clusters.  Wired in a speedo calibrator box from aliexpress and now works fine. 
    • Thanks for the nice comments, I really appreciate it.  Regarding mods, I am planning of keeping it mostly stock. The only possible future mods I am thinking of are new wheels, perhaps sports shocks or coilovers, and was about to do a cat delete on Monday (However, I am unsure about this and I am getting cold feet). Despite this modifications, I'd still keep all the original wheels/parts.
    • Hi All, I’m looking for a R34 GTR rear propshaft for my getrag conversion in my R33. If anyone has one available send me a message. Thank you  Roy
    • Yep I ended up buying a new gasket and no leaks since.
