couple of pics from QR, was wet wet, and I drove pretty poo
may have found a few things on the car which will make it a bit better/more consistant to drive, espeacially in the wet, so will see how all that goes next time I get to take it out

Opps I, Forgot about this shit

Sunday was the raceline event at QR up in Ipswich, days was pretty well run, and everyone had fun, I had car issue's all day which meant I couldn't do a full lap without the engine cutting, was pretty devo'd, as it was the first real day we had the 14 at a track that was big enough to really strech it's leg's , But shit happen's, Car is Down at PITS on the dyno as I write this, so hopefully matty can come up with the answers.

anyway, managed to find a few snap's floating round the intertube.

this weekend is Stanthorpe round of the raceline championship... so fingers crossed
car dos its biz uninterrupted !

friday night failing & fun

2010-07-01T09:05:00.010+10:00

Last week we decided to hit Archifield up for a bit of fun and something different, although its only 1 hour drive away up in brisbane, last time I recall getting up there was about 3 years ago, oh my, time flies !
So as of Wednesday my 180 was sitting on blocks with no shocks, no diff, just chilling, luckily I managed to beg, steal and borrow a set of junk coil overs and a locker, busy week meant I didn't try and get the car together till last minute.
which sucked balls as I stayed up till 3a.m watching the NZ soccer team play at the world cup, getting about 3 hours sleep I knew things wouldn't work out,
Once up at the track I got perhaps 6 or 8 laps before the lhf wheel ripped off, either the nuts simply pulled through, or I didn't torque them up right, surprisingly I found this piss funny, As you can see by my smile.
Luckily Jeff was kind enough to let me borrow the R33.4 for the rest of the night, which meant jumping straight into qualifying with not even a practice lap, LOL
format was elimination comp, I drew my little bud Buckna for the 16 battle, had wicked fun running with this dude, but he beat me 6-4, 6-4 which ended that part of the night for me, shame cause was having much fun, but nahwell.
Did passenger laps at the end of night, heaps fun, scaring about 15 different people in the space of 15 minutes was top was to end the night,hard work lapping that much tho, was well rooted by the end !
thanks to all those that helped get my shitbox out the way when I lost the wheel, and big thanks to Jeff and fanki from Nizzpro

next mission is to get the s14 running again, motor should be ready to bolt in this weekend, I am getting old and feeling slightly crippled at the moment, so once i'm back in action will take some more update pic's of the 14

anyway here's some Friday night pics

Having some fun

2010-06-07T11:57:00.004+10:00

Rad day out on sunday, Me and the Nizzpro boys headed out to parklands
for some fun, We had hired the cars out to a Mother and son, Me and Fanki
spent a couple of hour's in the cars with them, Poor old laurel copped a
abit of abuse, 1st being backed in a live 240v power box by one of the
students ! luckily I wasnt in the car ! scary scary shit...
Then later at the hand's of jeff put a little man with a hammer in the sump,
hoping for a RB conversion for it, even with the extra work weve put into
the turbo side of late, SR's just dont like it like RB's do...
car is looking abit better with our new black tinter on the headlights and
the ura's kit gone, back to bolted on plastic bar's.
The R33 which Ive been driving till the RB26 S14 is back on board had a mild
make over too, in the form of a R34 front end, As per this car just kept on
going all day ( literally ) and even dropped a fat celebration burnout !
Fanki and I were lucky enough to take home the teams comp trophy too.
since we didnt make it to the SD private day at Qr, our next stop will be friday night at QR this week, then maybe a bit of a breather until we get the s14 back on track
any who heres some pic's
top couple are of the from sunday at parklands, rest are just randoms of the 14 !

until next time

oh yeah

Couple of vids from wakefield

Well, back and recovered from the road trip ! drove the 13 odd hours back to the coast after the event, so was well shattered !
Speaking of shattered my left hand rear knuckle decided 1st lap of sunday to do just that, a big crack from the where the lower ball joint bolt's up to where the wheel bearing bolts up. this let go 1st corner, 1st lap on sunday, with about 7 deg neg camber and 30mm toe out shit got kind of exciting at times, I angled down the passenger mirror and tried to watch how much movement the wheel was getting round the last corner, didn't seem to move to much so we kept on trekin'
Jeff the boss man from Nizzpro thought it would be best to give the big entry comp a miss tho, looking at the knuckle after we got it off, I think that was the best choice !
have got the secretdrift.com.au private day at Queensland on tuesday next week, and Team Wars @ parklands next saturday too, so there's a bit coming up, should keep me busy !

thanks to karl for putting up the old GarageDori photo's on the interwebz

1st post

Well, This is it....

now to go make some content, Road trippin' to Wakefield in N.S.W this weekend for Stadium Drift rd3, Will be driving the Nizzpro R33 again as the S14 is still having open heart surgery. Jeff from Nizzpro will be driving the car in Level 2 as well, And Fanki has his R31 back together after our little pooning at Parkland's a couple of weeks ago,
Have never been to wakefield or seen much footage, so figured would be good idea to have a look for some footage on the net, Turns out there isn't much, just odd little bits of incar, So looking forward to getting a glimpse of the circuit, Seeing if I can still drive, And kickin back having a brew afterwards

anyway heres some in car, looks like theres some fun to be had
