I heard about it on one of the Forums and came down for a look. Enjoyed the tyre frying - Roy did real good for his first time on track!

Every time I go to Calder Park I get more and more annoyed with it - Its a really lousy track I rekon. Itd be good if they build a purpose built drift track somewhere because I rekon theres a Lot of People into It. I personally wouldnt take a car to calder, 3 corners, high prices, cement walls and generally low speed sliding. Im sorry but its a Joke. I wudnt wanna send my car into the wall and for just 3 corners! Not worth it.

Ive been to a Few Drift comps over back home In WA and I can tell ya the track back there - collie - is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy better and guys actually drift the whole circuit, which is free of cement walls, and nice sweeper corners and series of links.Smooth bitumen as well. High Speed entertaining drifting. Its not a wonder why the WA boys do so well in the Drift Nats. Sadly over there theres no organisations like Fullock or anyone having drift practice days etc. Over here there lucky to have the organisation, but not the track.

So is there any Talk of a track coming up or maybe another more suitable venue? I havent been to Winton or Sandown, but are they any better?

mate ur preaching to the wrong people...

u think we like calder? its a hole... but its also a lot more difficult than most tracks around australia and thats why this track sorts the boys from the men... the one in mallala is much more forgiving as are a lot of the tracks around australia.

so if ur like the NZ drivers and the Japanese drivers (or that psycho matt sampson) Calder is actually quicte a good track for drift.

Drift isnt judged on the whole track... just sections... thats the idea.

Getting the governemt to build a track here in melbourne is like trying to pull gold from a dolphins arsehole... it aint going to happen unless someone wins lotto and funds it themselves.

It shouldnt be up the govt to build one:)

I wouldnt be surprised if Calder does build such a facility now that the track is goign to be round for a long time to come.

That said, Winton is the perfect place to hold such as event...but ppl seem to hate the fact that they have to drive for 2 hours, goes to show how keen (or not) they really are:(

people drive hours to drift at the track at Gippsland park... others drive 6 hours and truck there cars to Adelaide, NSW and Queensland so i highly doubt people cant be considered keen.

dont see many people taking there cars to NSW for a track day now do u? :(

I'm gonna do eastern creek when I get my car to a level i'm happy with.

I keep hearing too many things coming out of NSW about GTST's being faster than GTR's. I'm sure Andrew will want to take this challenge aswell.

Yeah I mangaged like 5 photos before the camera died (forgot to charge the battery - oops) - there is also video footage but the camera didnt seem to like focusing on anything except the lights and smoke once it got dark. Chris has the footage - ill check with him how its coming along.
