Allright, i've just spoken to the reception at calder, and they tell me there is no plans to bring wednesday night drifting back , UNLESS THEY RECEIVE ExpressionS OF INTEREST from people that would be willing to go. I've been told that they will start it up again if there is demand, so anyone sick of the drive to winton, give them a call or email them. Or, if anyone can help get Sandown/Calder drift events happening, lets get this organised.

[Kempers]

Maybe just an idea... Get a petition going.

I think you can get an online petition started for free off some site ( don't know it tho )

If they see it for themselves id saying they would do something.

I loved going up every last wednesday of the month. Always good time heading up and going back from Geelong.

Kempo.

[Panikos]

OK, there it is. A petition to get our drift back, baby . I might have to re-name the thread to calder park petition though.
so no excuses, point and click.

btw, i think we'll just stick with your petition kustum to avoid confusion.

[toyoda]

if they do it they should run it every 2 months not every one if they were filling nights enough

man, good luck, i just did that "theoretically" for school, and discovered that the cost of bitumen is the reason it's hard to build a new track. But i'm from the SE so i'm down wit that too.

i signed it but i dont think they will care about internet petitions..


we should organise a cruise with cars THAT WILL ACTUALLY DRIFT (not like the west meet where every1 comes to watch) and drive up 2 calder with cash flopping out, helmets on, handbrakes tightened, ready for some dori dori action.

mate, i've got a commywhore, and that means re-tighten every lap, until i get a hydro . And i see you're point. But if we don't get ORGANISED we're just a bunch of tools talking. You just have to look at driftfest to see that organisation is a key element to success here.

[marioman]

well i signed it

[garage-13]

how much to hire wed night? for drift

...if you really want to drift then a measly 2-3hour drive is nothing!

We have a 5 hour drive to Winton (calder would be 4 hours for us as well)...harden up and get out on the track!

do it alex, hire it out

ill help u organise everything

[zohair32]

anyone on sau that could post the link up there ?

i see the start of something here

[BENRYS]

alex i tihnk you'll find the reason they dont want to do it isnt based on numbers, its based on wear and tear

rumours were floating saying that they are attempting to get v8's back... and they want to track in tip top condition... pity it never started like that lol

get brad back... he was our saving grace!

[kustum]

the main problem with renting tracks; sandown, Phill. Island etc. only allow cams affiliated clubs on them, this leaves the asca tracks(the rebels) winton & calder for off-street meets. Therefore, if vicdrift got thier act together and set it up( pretty sure they have cams affil; Finky?), they could run events at both The island and sandown, but i think they have an agreement so they can sustain thier championship. You can't really blame them, motorsports is in hard times. Bottom line, the big circuits down here don't give a rats about dudes with streetcars. Even though, 1 a year, they hold a street meet each. I'm mostly spewin cause i moved here like 6 years ago when it was just the fullock nationals, and nothin at home in qld. Now i feel like a f$#kwit! ! Hell, 50man used to travel to melb. to compete!
