Who Runs Drift Events In Victoria?

[ausdrift]

Bit of a simple quiry this; who organizes drift days in Victoria? Obviously Vicdrift seem to be the main group, but does anyone else organize any circuit days for drift?

[R31Nismoid]

Vicdrift is it.

There is another mob starting up Calder TRAINING days only, but let an event/two run first and see how that falls.

Ahh I see. Nothing against Vicdrift, im sure theyre a great club to be hosting events. My concern is the point I just saw on their page about the requirement for rollcages in 2013. I have a street car and I cant just throw a cage in, i need the seats and space. Which leaves me in a bit of a situation as it seems like the choice is drift and make my car unusable on the road. or no drift. And I wanna drift again.

Only group A,B and C mate.

If you're in those groups you expect there is a chance the car will come back a meatball, thus the cage regs.

Grooup D is fine, no cage required, just no tandems.

I did see something about Group D on their web page, but, atleast for the matsuri, it appared to be a noob class where as I am fairly experienced. Is this the case? I have no interest in tandems, just wanna go out and have my fun (without having to slowly pass spun cars on every corner).

[ssxRicho]

Group E is the noob class. D allows for your kind of car.

[Jezza-gtR]

Why don't you get a bolt in roll cage? Only have to put it in for track then take it out afterwards.

Excellent. This is good news. I havent put a cage in so far as i like my car being as streetable as possible (it is where its used 99% of the time) and i certainly dont have the cash to make this a track only car. As for getting a cage and bolting it in just for events? thats another solution, something to consider.
