Rhymes with 'hey'.

Our presence at the skidpan tonight was bulk. Towards the end most of the crowd and cars were ours. It'd have to be the most Fords I've seen on there in one night. Vids coming soon.

It was a very good turnout!! And very eventful for all!!!

I wouldn't blame that shit driving on josh tho lol! That has me all over it... I have to much of a leadfoot to drift atm.... Once I learn how to control that I shouldnt be so bad!

As for the events in the evening,

Fairlane dodgy wiring fail 1 - Thermo wire power short. Now not controlled by microtec
Fairlane dodgy wiring fail 2 - Ford standard fuelpump wiring melt, resulting in dash catching on fire... long story read build thread
Dan kicking ass with machine gun screamer on pan - many afghans fleeing the scene.
Fairmont888 something broken needing fixing? Not sure what...
Eafalcon front bar escape attempt.

I think thats about the most events for the night!! All in all, great night!

Damn it, both nights I've missed in the last 6 months have turned out to be the best ones.

Here's a wicked shot of Rollin on the skid pan that I found on another forum. Note the twin flamage.

by **Rollin** » July 5th, 2009, 10:13 pm

HOLY SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Link to forum?

I noticed random flashes of light out on the track, figured someone was taking photos out there - there were some nice cars and some bloody good drivers out there, took the term 'like a fish out of water' to a whole new level.

by **BI6TIM** » July 5th, 2009, 10:20 pm

That was the only photo I saw of you there. It was someones flickr account linked from Secretdrift.com.au.

by **Malakai** » July 5th, 2009, 10:30 pm

Very poor video of one of my runs, for some reason the frame rate practically halves in between watching it straight off the hard drive to uploading to youtube, so it's gay.

by **NUT347** » July 6th, 2009, 1:43 pm

dan thats a sick photo!! i think you should put it up on the wall in your living room!!!

Hey Todd, got videos from friday night ready yet?

by **Rollin** » August 3rd, 2009, 11:29 pm

When he eventually organises himself lol. I'm pretty sure he has one of you.

I got pulled over on the way home after drifting....

Was driving with Bipolar and the two apprentices from work (big ass bridgeport Series 1 RX7 and lightly modded S13) and we were all in a group cruising along.

White FG XR6T came up an onramp real quick and slotted nicely into our group....Could see no evidence at all that it was a cop car, considered attempting to race it but decided discretion was the better part of valour and didn't...

We got to the 70km/h section of the centenary and just as I noticed a little round thingo on the dash of the FG FUCKENBANG party lights up the wazoo....

Pulled over expecting a world class dicking - I hadn't looked at my speedo for several minutes, had stuffed 235/50 rear tyres on which were near constantly scrubbing the guards, plus the car was filthy and the front tyres were cactus too, all the usual illegalities

Got RBT'd and talked my way out of a fine for driving in the right lane while not overtaking :eek:

then he drove off :thumbsup:

Worlds least observant cop???? I wish there were more like him!!!!

by **BI6TIM** » August 4th, 2009, 6:38 am

Nice one! Did any of you guys know the dude with the blue XH XR6 ute with the turbo? I don't think he went out on the big track but he was on the skid pan.
Maybe Todd got a video of him?

by **Bipolar** » August 4th, 2009, 8:15 am

Nah I only got one video of you then my battery was gone (again). Havin trouble with my PC so I'll upload it when I get a chance.

by **ed40** » August 4th, 2009, 9:30 pm

If it was me i would of done you for being in the right lane.
I thought only Perth drivers did that

by **Rollin** » August 5th, 2009, 12:10 am

There was no other traffic......If anyone came up behind me I would have moved over long before I became an obstruction.

by **ELXR_96** » August 5th, 2009, 8:56 pm

Just quietly **** you can drive Rollin i mean some people are just purely un natural and don't know how to chase the slightest bit of steering wheel but you just ravage the shit outa it lol

by **ed40** » August 5th, 2009, 9:49 pm

by **Bipolar** » August 5th, 2009, 10:00 pm

plarse toooo

by **Malakai** » August 6th, 2009, 11:02 am

there is a mum joke with the word 'ravage' in it that could be said at this point but I'm above such toilet humor.

by **juiceman** » August 6th, 2009, 12:23 pm

I'm not...that being the case. I'd ravage the shit out of your mum.

by **Malakai** » August 6th, 2009, 1:19 pm

If your idea of 'ravage' is as half-arsed as your idea of 'bush bashing' then she will be sorely dissapointed.

by **juiceman** » August 6th, 2009, 6:52 pm

Ouch. Well played worthy adversary.

ELXR_96 - Thank you :drinks2:

Now my head is just that little bit bigger haha.

by **Bipolar** » August 11th, 2009, 12:35 am

All that pre-practice practice pays off eh!

by **BI6TIM** » August 11th, 2009, 6:35 am

Awesome, thanks Todd. I was pretty happy with it considering I hadn't been sideways in that car for nearly a year.

by **juiceman** » August 11th, 2009, 10:43 pm

I heart screamer. Good stuff Tim!

by **bushman** » November 23rd, 2009, 3:40 pm

by **NUT347** » November 23rd, 2009, 5:00 pm

by **Bipolar** » November 23rd, 2009, 5:37 pm
