I was just wondering what car Webster was driving?

Awesome day out there the lil starlet that packed a radiator had some amazing handbrake assisted drifting! :twisted:

Got some really good photos i'll have to post up!
Hopefully i'll get round to it before to long.

Grey / White EP82 Startled Turbo with many of the horsepowers.

He killed yet another CV on his final run on the way to fastest FWD. Now that's some dedication.

It was the first event i've done where I had horsepower in reserve... The car was a handful all day, torque steer from Nam and driver too slow... I never new which way I was going

Hopefully we will have a new venue soon, everyone keep you eyes peeled for an appropriate replacement venue.

Fun times indeed. Felt great to finally get the 200 out there. Learnt a lot about the car and where im going to direct money to next.

Went pretty smoothly considering how many entrants there were. Thanks for a great day.

If anyone has pics please put them here!

18" Chrome wheels, four exhaust tips, sign writing all over the car, painting the bonnet black, two subs, and some stickers on your windows telling everyone who your "crew" is.

Then you can wear a beanie, and a hoodie while driving up and down Kent Terrace going "doof doof".

Yes lots of fun. Still can't get the horsepower to the ground. Ended up mostly sideways and/or backwards caused by rush of blood to the head :oops:

Nothing wrong with that. Made for entertaining viewing.

Or you could go drift stylz and put the cow catcher front spoiler, held on by cable ties!

excuse my ignorance, but how often will sealed events be held? Im keen to get the rona out on a track asap, and not too keen on grass, which i thought most autocorsses were

thanks guys

Pretty sure that was the last one. Unless someone finds a new venue, which wont be easy!

by **Leon** » Mon Jun 12, 2006 10:56 pm

an autocross can be literally any surface, concrete, grass, gravel, sand snow.

That venue is gone, so sorry, don't know when the next one will happen if at all.

If it happens, it will be posted here though.

I got 1st FWD , white/green starlet GT , did I win the highest inside rear wheel lift contest ? , time to take the standard springs out me thinks
I didn't "kill" the CV , wounded it maybe

, haven't had a chance to look yet

PC , put the power steering back in , or take the LSD out haha

Toy_baru , you brought the wrong car , you would have had no trouble putting all the power down in the rolla

Leon , loved the look on your face as Mr drifta aimed at your car

Nope, I reckon that went to the Starlet Si, that looked like it was seriously going over.

Actually it was a dude in a Legacy who nearly hit my car wasn't it? That was one guy who was seriously outdriving his abilities. I wasn't too worried, as I figured he would stop in time.
