Collie Drift Day - Sun 1 July '07

[Pimpin_1JZ]

Hey coff, so what's the go? Are you still staying at mine that weekend? And how many others?

[Wildsupra]

i've actually tried to hand crank a 1938 Chev Coupe utility...holy shit..it was hard work..then i tried to hand crank my old FJ40 landcruiser..1978 model..that was worse!
by the way...spotto in members thread my supra eldar?

we actually had to hand crank a 1912 rolls royce at work to get it goin!!!! they were never fitted with starter motors from factory!! Ohh did i mention the engine is 7.5 litres

Robbo why do you need to wait until you have a purpose built drift car to come show us younger guys how to do it? none of us have purpose built cars, we are using our daily cars....kinda tips the scales a bit if your using a purpose built car......

Oh there's curbs alright, ..., they're called "drop offs" down there.

Shit!!!!!

i dont need a purpose built car...i just dont want to go thrashing n breaking my drive cars.
inclusive my purpose built car is probably the same specs as your drive cars anyway....so the competition should be even

[WA_TRD_83]

last i checked, clutch kicking is a "drift technique"?

i think he'll do great, wildsupra hasnt copped a thrash in ages, about time you found that limiter eh matteh?

Elmo.

Yeah - a clutch kick.. normally assisted with a quick grab of the hand brake is a geat way to get into a slide and then power out of the corner with smoke screeming from the back.

Matty has certainly mastered the clutch kick.. its just going to be a matter of linking up some corners and it will look awesome!!..

Everyone bring camera's!

ahhh cool i assume your purpose built track car will use PVC for intercooling piping too then? Otherwise it aint nuttin like my car

any1 got a pic of the track or what??

Matty

[Wildsupra]

hmm i found this picture of the collie "sprint track" is this the same track used for the drifting??

[Disturbed1]

hope not - that looks pretty hard to link any corners for beginners

[Disturbed1]

same same???

[WaynO]

Yep that looks like the same track dont think they've change it since I was there!

[Wildsupra]

Disturbed1....where did that pic come from? I like the look of that much better, as you said no way us beginners could link the corners in my 1st pic.

Wayno, my pic or the sketch look more like the drift track?

[Disturbed1]

coff33 designed it refer to page 1

i should have refferenced it
