[DISTRBD]

1st place for drift at last collie show was $1000 .. The bar is in a good spot so you can watch drift n burnouts at same time n :beer: :beer: :beer:

[Halle Terry]

whats the actual track like? good for beginners?

[Matt-AE86]

Yer, very good for beginners. 1 corner can be sketchy but its a lot of fun.

[Deke]

just rock up and pay money at the gate?

[Halle Terry]

bit of an open question, but what sort of damages am i risking taking my car out onto the track, car is a tad expensive to fix etc,

stacking it into the wall and damaging bodywork? overheating?

whats crashing into a barrier likely to do?

car has cat back, pod, bunch of things changed ie balancer, waterpump, cam belt, its got strut bar and coilovers

edit : thought id add some more info

cars gearing is 1st @ 80
2nd tops in 120

am i likely to use these gears preety much exclusivly?

gearbox is the r154, engine almight 1jz vvti


motorsport expirence is preety vauge, just been down to the drags, done a fair few skids on the street, nothing insane or epic

[iluv2moan]

if u love your car, and its a daily - i wouldnt advise it


i took mine down for 1st time and although i loved it and didnt hit nothing nor come close, i was always shit scared, esp when u see ya mates who are alittle more adventurous put their cars into the tire walls and do serious damage

wouldnt take my daily car down there again

hence 5k shitter supra

[Halle Terry]

if u love your car, and its a daily - i wouldnt advise it


ok bassically answered my question, im in absolute love with my car, yes its a daily, i also go to uni full time and make $15 an hour

so yeh dont have a lot of spare kesh to throw around

[iluv2moan]

so whos going to this?

[DanWA]

I'll be there... always some crazy drifters to watch and great burnouts... want to see more turbo cars on the pad though... theres been a few and they were always enjoyable.

[revs13]

I'm going! its gonna be insane

But i agree, needs to be more imports in the burnout comp......

[iluv2moan]

that mean u boys are entering the burnout comp??

[Wezz]

i took mine down for 1st time and although i loved it and didnt hit nothing nor come close, i was always shit scared, esp when u see ya mates who are alittle more adventurous put their cars into the tire walls and do serious damage



I havent seen one car do serious damage at collie?

there is only one corner where the wall is even remotely close... so all you have to do is not drift that part and you'll be fine...

i havent done any damage to my car at collie... wanneroo is the car killer...

you'll be into third for the sweeper, but besides that the track is all second... unless you want to try some third gear entries back into 2nd...

for tight asses bent cntrl arms/ broken tie rod/etc is serious damage

[iluv2moan]

dont know about u, but i call this fairly serious damage if it happened to my car all from tagging a tyre wall at low speed

I was there today, didnt see one car that didnt have an 8 in the burnout ring.. droning got very annoying.. but that blown hilux made SO much smoke!!

Drifting was good, loved that gold R32 sounded bloody nice! no entry fee either?

It serious when ya 200ks from home n nothing to fix it with :op:

[DanWA]

Yeah the red SIL was hammered, will post pics this arvo... Also theres was plenty of 6's on the skid pad, definately need to get some rice out there though as the V8's dominate wayyy too much. Was a good day anyway... drifting was good to watch, something definately wrong with the green 31 though sounded like a pig.

[Skitzo]

revs13 came second.

HA HA HA HA i know what he paid at was bloody cheap maybe next you should ring some one else and get a retail price then you will cry

[DISTRBD]

Paid by cubic metre , cheaper because it was alot shorter :lol: :lol: :lol:

[gerrin]

hahaha and scrap metal just went down 20 bucks per ton so no value there

[Matt-AE86]

Gerrin, I doubt coffee even knows what mike paid, plus I doubt anyone else would do it cheaper than you.

I think what he was really saying is, it just hurts to pay the towing bill :)

[gerrin]

YER I KNOW
but when you its the 1st thing you hear ( people crying over prices)

but thats motorsport if your going to drive to collie and drift you have to budget towing or repairs if things go bad

main thing is hes ok
