Drift day EC Kings Birthday! 12 Jun 23.

[OZ GTR35]

Hi All,

       After my failed attempt to organise a drift day last year, Im looking to do it on this new date.

Its on a Monday of the Kings Birthday weekend.  12 Jun 2023 7.30 am Start $170

https://www.australiandriftclub.com.au/events/12-jun-2023-wet-pan-drift-days/

There are currently 35 spots left, I will book tonight, if anyone wants to come please feel free to book. 

I have My R35 and my sons Evo going, and maybe 3-4 work mates.

If anyone else is interested book in early so we dont miss out on spots! Every date before this is fully booked so get on it!

Hope to see you there.

I didn’t think of that, now that Charlie is in charge does it now become the kings long weekend 

[OZ GTR35]

I believe so!

Thanks for mentioning it again! Just booked my ticket. Hopefully it works out this time.

@Nyoom I question you'd want to be splurging on track days right now but pinging you regardless. This might be much more enjoyable in a RWD Skyline.

Just as an aside, it is going to be double demerits still on that day.

@soviet_merlin really tempting. Might have to miss out on driving in this one though 🙁

Could tag along for some passenger rides if I'm free.

I imagine double demerits would still be on...

I'm not sure about getting my car on this either, HOWEVER, if there are a few of us, I might come down for the chance to nap some photos at the very least!

@OZ GTR35 How would you feel about me posting this on the SAUNSW website and social media? Might drag in a few more skylines/members that way? It'd definitely make @crashdown happy to get a track event on our calendar!

[OZ GTR35]

Sure post away

Hah, someone also please let Chris know. The time has come for the ute to shine. It was made for this.

[sammi_d]

Bahaha!! It'll be the perfect time to shout out "do a flip"! LOL @Redline_GTR

Just letting everyone know there are no driver spots left, just passenger and spectators now. 

Dave, see you there, I will be in the silver 35 and my son is in his silver EVO.

I did some reading on how to drift the 35, apparently at greater than 15 deg steering angle the 4WD comes off, all the reading says the harder you go the better. I can only assume old Semi slicks and a wet skid pan means it wont be hard to loose traction, and I should be in for a fun day!

[soviet_merlin]

Hah, I'll be there in the silver Stagea so it'll fit right in.

Sounds like you got it all worked out Paul. Looking forward to see how it goes!

I'm going to try and take it easy on the car. No clutch kicking and no hand brake. I'm curious to see what it can do with just weight transfer and giving it some boost though.

No worries, I can ping you again a bit closer to the day. Jen is going to come as well and I'm sure she'll mention it to Elham. And of course feel free to jump in the car!

[OZ GTR35]

Good to meet you Merlin, the day was good I would recommend it to anyone who was interested. GTS people you will have a ball. GTRs obviously a little harder in 4WD. My son did not have the confidence to get the EVO off tilt but still had a ball.

Some pics and I have some videos also

Soz, I could not get the videos to load?
