Attempted drift gone bad :/

[jmp]

Well while trying some dorifto last night I managed to bung it up and hit a kerb.

I now have a bung rear right wheel which has a nice big scrape on the edge around 5cm long.

Anyone know who can repair rims? Standard S15 polished if that helps. Also estimated cost would be helpful.

Cheers

Ahh, that brings back memories:rolleyes:

Alliance rim repairs in north perth cnr Fitzgerald + James. They do a pretty good job. They charged me around 150-200 for mine but it had to be repainted as well. Was pretty much the same as ures from the description.

Best of luck, nothing else is bent.

Ya all looks fine and it drives fine (No wobble etc)

How long did it take them to get it all done?

[Boostzor]

Took him a while, depends how busy he is. School holis started so i reckon hed be busy

Took him a week or 2 to do mine, but alot of that was matching the paint.

jmp, The list of drift failuers continues to mount. I think Macka's was the worse I've seen:( MC will be holding more drift training days, might be worth going there to practice:D

drifta180, Go to the next Drift Training at MC, it's much safer place to learn:D

[MattyB]

yeh yeh. lets c how long it takes me to smash some kerbs once i starting trying to drift. probally about -3 seconds. hehehe

[d0rifta]

Id advise it

Alot safer if your learning and your not putting anyone else at risk because you're more than likely just doing it anywhere on the street probbly in front of all your mates at the local maccas

[drifta180]

guys were do i get info on these drift days and whens the next one .. also who's going to the drags tomorrow night

[gtrken]

Have been flat out with the Enjo SES , Rallymax , work , organising a new business venture, yadayadayada
