I'm looking forward to this event....would be good if we could all meet beforehand and cruise together to the circuit.

[Jamezilla]

Definitely

[inark]

this is different to the one that on the 1st which was posted out in the main forum but i will be attending both

[sammus]

can't wait

[TeeZnU]

sounds cool!!

ill be in on that!!

[~Hypnotik~]

I'll be heading along!!

[Guest RedLineGTR]

i'm keen..

[skylineakt]

Will be good to see some drift action in real live.

[Al]

If i am not working, i'm there. Just 5 min drive from my house.

[hotsky]

i will DEFINETLY be up for that(as long as i can get a defect on the bloody new car fixed up by then ) that day is also my 24th b'day

[rs73]

I won't be going to the 1st "guest list only" event as I already promised to visit my friend this Sunday... beside it's likely too late already by now.

But I'd be up for that 20th March event... Do we just be a spectator or can we have a run as well? Will there be different levels like beginners, intermediate, pro? It's not funny for a beginner to compete against pro and getting smashed up trying some fast corners dedicated for pros only... I'm sure many ppl still like to drive their cars back home in 1 pc.

What part of calder will be used for drifting, flat track or inside the dome? I suspect they could make a small track from the pit lane and part of the dome, this has been done before. Does anyone know?

[R31Nismoid]

It's on the track.

not in the dome.

There was a demo day there 2-3 months ago to get approval to have these types of events covered by insurance etc

I dont know much more about it than that at the moment. I aint spoken to anyone for a while.

As for participation... i am 'told' now this is not gospel, that it will be invite only.

that's just what i was 'told'

Reasoning for that was they are mainly just getting the interest for Vic-Drift flowing hot etc.

Then other days will follow.

Again, this is what i was told by a few acquaintances at various stages late last year. Dont hold me to it

[king_kw13]

Yeah a cruise to the event would be nice. Sure to be a spectator provide there is an SAU contingent.

Hi,

Adam from Full Lock here. Just thought ids clarify a few things for you guys.

Do we just be a spectator or can we have a run as well? Will there be different levels like beginners, intermediate, pro? It's not funny for a beginner to compete against pro and getting smashed up trying some fast corners dedicated for pros only...

You can go as a spectator or you can go as a competitor. There will be two divisions. Factory tuned division and an amateur division. Factory tuned is invite only. This class will have some of Australia’s hottest drift cars and driver’s competing head to head on a challenging track layout. The amateur division is designed for anyone to compete and give it a go on a safe and easy track layout.

I am 'told' now this is not gospel, that it will be invite only.

Only the factory tuned will be invite only. Amateur will be open for everyone.

What part of Calder will be used for drifting, flat track or inside the dome?

The flat track will be used. In particular the last chicane and right hand sweeper. The factory tuned cars will uses the part of the straight and possibly the short corse right hand sweeper.

Hope this helps.

Hey, good luck with this event you guys, I know how hard Adam, Matt, Luke, etc have all worked on this

Hopefully many more to come

[GTRgeoff]

Hey, should be fun. RWDTurbo are considering an outing to this event. See you all there. I'll just whore between groups.

[skylineakt]

I know this is still a while away, but would anyone like to cruise down together from the SE, Eastern side?

Since it is all the other side of the city and stuff, would be pretty cool if the SAU rock up in a crew hehe

[(B1) MR_fanny]

im down for that mate!!
