Drift Day At Collie An Alternative

[Steve]

There are a few spots left for the drift comp at wanneroo 30 sept, they will be having a practice this friday, 5 hours on the track for only $40!

then the comp itself, $100. So all in all, 2 track days for $140 - not bad at all.

If you are intested, give Benara Rd Autos a call on 0414 990 254 to reserve a spot, but be quick or you will miss out.

Will post up estimate costs (Collie cant confirm exact track hire yet) later tonight, should be well under $100

MrSnrub,

All cars, I own an S13!

[Steve]

Cost will be approximately $70 per person - as mentioned before, it may rise by a few dollars if the cost of the track goes up.

Im in.

I will need the practice haha

[Baz]

Put me down definately for sure. The event was originally booked out before was it not? Because I looked into this a couple of months back when it was first announced and could not find a spot because it was booked out completely. If there is a spot available I am in.

PM sent

ah, given that the all fours and tenagah weekend just got postphoned again, and it was due to run on the 20th/21st of this month, i wouldn't get your hopes too high on it holding firm, that said, ill probably be keen for a couple of spots, if it all happens to plan

[Steve]

I got told today (thus the post today) that the spot is OURS!

we may beat the other guys in at this rate

[StuiE]

I'll come to spectate for sure

Do you need any experience to marshal?

[re2]

Anyone need pit crew?

Bugger.

T minus three months

[Steve]

No experience needed at all to marshal it would be a big help if you could lend a hand

either way, all spectators welcome (of course) the more the merrier. Bring beers and stay overnight if need be.

hmm, gives me 1 month to put a new clutch in it. if i can get this yellow sticker off in time put me down as in

[Lozzle]

This will be run in a similar way to the events I have been to in SA, ie all cars on the track, then let through one at a time to control space between drivers.

This will enable everyone to get a decent run, regardless of skill level and you dont have to worry about running in too close to the guy in front, nor some one running into you.

Good stuff, but bear in mind there will be ppl of different skill levels and those travelling faster will catch up the slower ppl, so from previous experience its best to sort ppl into groups according to skill. Otherwise you get those more so learning gettin pressure from behind and those who are more competant get pisd at being stuck at certain points where they can't overtake.

Other than that, should be good - as long as the track is ready. We've had numerous setbacks with the Tenagah drift day. Like Denver said, it was finally meant to be on the 21 August but it will be set back again.
