george is it going on rain or shine???

[gbond15]

i believe it will be rain or shine.. last year we had to wait 30min for some fog to clear but that was only so course workers could see if there was a spun car.

[ReLevent1]

hell yea im down for this. hopefully i can pass the tech inspection

[gbond15]

hell yea im down for this. hopefully i can pass the tech inspection

[blu808]

As long as your wheels dont fall off, or your car catch on fire, we dont really care that much about the tech. lol

dont got any extra LCA's hard enough finding them for myself... Im still looking for a front passenger spindle... im worried that got tweaked...

[DJPimpFlex]

LCA's, S13 or S14? by spindle you mean hub, 4 or 5 lug? I'm going to pick and pull probably on thursday and I can probably pick something up for you.

[blu808]

hahaha dood those curbs really hate you. Its like the jump out in front of you like weekly huh? lol

[ReLevent1]

damn looks like everyone has curb damage. i hit last week, and my car still isnt up yet. but it will be before the event thats for sure.

[dct223]

LCA's, S13 or S14? by spindle you mean hub, 4 or 5 lug? I'm going to pick and pull probably on thursday and I can probably pick something up for you.

i mean the spindle, the part for the front where the hub bolts on to, the LCA, the tension rod, tie rod etc etc... dont care if the hub bolted on is 4lug or 5, im gonna still use my 5lug hub.

S14 front passenger side... if u find one.... ill pick it up and give u $$$$$$$!!!!



and george.. dont worry! im gonna make it!

[kazuo]

He needs rear LCA. Passenger side IIRC.

I might go, if I can borrow Erika's suspesions... no stock suspension spinning out for me. lol.

[FaLKoN240]

MAN, if I can get coils, I'm HELLA going.

[DJPimpFlex]

well if I see one I'll pick it up, but I dont think there will be any S14's.

[DJPimpFlex]

check this out for the LCA.

[dct223]

http://www.craigslist.org/pen/pts/120675021.html

[Andrew Bohan]

we gotta be there by like 8:30 or so? so that means leave at 5:30am :/...

nooooooo leave 7pm the night before.

[Fatlace]

Fawk! I'd love to go but dammit, we'll be in Japan.. :aw:

[DJPimpFlex]

yup 5:30 it is.

[kazuo]

Funk dat. I will be going night before, I aint gettin up at 5am again.

lol

Let's getting rooms at Motel 6. woo woo

[DJPimpFlex]

wanna split it? When I went to buttonwillow it was $60 for like 2 hours (i got there WAY late).

[dct223]

good thing ill be in davis at that time.. i think its just an hr drive from there

[jy116]

$60 for 2 hours? Wut u mean? Im slow on forums apparently... How much to split a room close to the track? Thats good idea. 8)

[DJPimpFlex]

well its $60 a night, but i got there at like 5 and slept till 7 so whatever. It'll probably be the same.

[blu808]

we will be there the night before. come hang with us.
:kiss:

[TurDz]

What do you specifically mean when you say "grip drivers on the front half of the course"?

could you please indicate what direction the track will be, and what turn numbers to what turn numbers are designated for grip?

I wanted to go to the Dec 11th one for the full grip course but had finals.

just go, any type of track time will be awesome!!

plus willows is not too too far from Davis...

everyone show support to NCDA AND [email protected]#@!#[email protected]#!

[TurDz]

haha

I can't "just go." I have very limited funds, and I really need to pick and choose my events.

I was hoping for another full track of grip and 2nd gear paddock drifting but yeah, this one is a different type of event.

If anyone could answer questions in my previous post I'd appreciate it. thanks

[jy116]

here u go buddy: http://ncda.net/images/GRIPNSLIP/gripnslip_back.jpg
in that pic, the top was drift "back section", ran counter clockwise. The bottom portion was cut off by a road not pictured, so there was 2 separate circuits. Grip ran clockwise in the "front"/bottom track.

[Krazy Bunta]

What that equates to is more track time, since there are essentially 3 seperate tracks for a small number of people.

So to summarize, there will be:

1. Front side Grip only course
2. Back side Drift course
3. Paddock Drift course

With the low registration numbers, you could definetly drive all day non-stop, tire, gas and endurance permitting.

[Andrew Bohan]

Is this accurate to what this Jan 8th event will be like? I'm assuming that the drift section will also turn 8 and 9? and the directions are?....

[Andrew Bohan]

[ReLevent1]

DjPimpFlex we were right next to you in the paddock with the black coupe and tundra with way to many tires and rims..lol..awesome fun event though

[DJPimpFlex]

oh yea. that was a fun event. Next time I want to tandem :)

[santacruisin]

were luke and don doing the tandem thing again. My S13 couldn't get tuned in time so i missed the event. Doh!!

Oh yeah and was there another incident with 10 cars going off the track at the same time?!?! Hope everything went smooth this time.

[Var]

hardly anyone went off track AFAIK.

[jaae86]

Except some idiot in a gray s13 hatchback dropping driveshafts on the cone course. Hehehe.......

[Andrew Bohan]

yeah what a dumbass :keke:

[BigVinnie]

haha fuck yes. im going then. all i have is a tiny leak in the powersteering.
You should try some lucas power steering fluid, it will keep you going for whole events, and has stop leak additive in it. Used it a couple times it's great.... The stuff is super thick and gooie......
Does any one have any pics at the event??????

[Andrew Bohan]

i put an article up on shockdrifting.com but we exceeded our bandwidth. it'll be back up feb 1st
