48 hours, one flight, one drift event and one massive drive home!

Last weekend I headed west for the Mallala Drift Supercup and not knowing what to expect, I found myself pleasantly surprised!

I arrived at the track at about 8am after getting a lift from the airport with local photographer, Luke Terbeeke.

Shepparton put on some great weather, with a strong attendance and a truck load of orange cones this event was definitely on. The 2nd ROUND of the 2012 DECA CHAMPIONSHIP hosted by import monster and Skylines Australia forum was about to begin, this being my first motorkhana I was unsure what to expect.

Last month I managed to catch up with the boys and girls behind the Victorian chapter of the Toyota Car Club of Australia.

Once a month the gang gathers to indulge in a feast of boiling hot caffeinated beverages and pile of small delicious baked goods with their centres punched out.

There was also a very generous serving of petrol guzzling four=wheeled machines to look at while enjoying this breakfast of champions.

JDM Style Tuning held their NSW end of month meet at Eastern Creek WSID. The crowd was amazing and cars followed in continuously all night building up to over 1000 cars easy.

This is Sami Tran’s Slipper Delsol fitted with a JDM K20A. Thought to be the only K-Swapped Delsol in the country and it is pushing 147kw atw. This is one of it’s last memories, as the Delsol has a new owner.

Melbourne had another record turnout for the April JDMST end of month meet. Everyone who made it out had a great night and the cars were better than ever!

This was the first ever meet held at the Essendon DFO carpark. Aside from the lights being on an auto timer and people getting a bit lost it was a fantastic night out.

Earlier this month Melbourne played host to a Mighty Car Mods meet and with a massive turnout expected, both Marty and Moog came down to see what the Victorian car scene had to offer.
Rather than our usual running commentary we thought we would take the opportunity to catch up with Marty and ask him a few questions about the show and cars in general.
