Winton :: Wet 'n' Wild

The clouds rolled in and it rained! Then the weather decided to do a 180 and the cycle continued,
a great day for a drift practice..

Its an escort, you do not see these everyday. The mighty escort was back at winton again and pushing hard.

A sideways Hi-torque R33 was mixing it up on the track and looking good around a lot of new potential talent.

Entry class was full on, everyone was pushing their limits, some a little to far.

Did someone say professional? Pro class was totally dominated by Nigel from engineered to slide!

The chase was on! everyone wanted to mix it with nigel but he was to fast and too smooth.

Speed and angle, he had both !

The safety crew was kept busy all day with many guys breaking stuff and needing a tow.

Exhaust mounts who need them?

Many R31’s where out and about, and lovin it!

Splash goes the s15!

This guy did not want me to take photos of the tofu delivery vehicle.

Rain makes for better angle, the wet track made the intermediate drivers look like pros. Some where pulling of some amazing drifts.

p plater” with style, this guy looked really impressive the whole day and defiantly needs to move up a class.

Just Holding it on the edge of the road!

Tuffcore, enough said.

When it rained, it RAINED!

Best performance of the day, this guy started off not doing so well, but by the end he was hitting extreme angles like nigel and cuting sick all over the track with little to no errors.

Beached as bro!

The circuit was full the whole day.

Most photogenic car of the day!

The crowd was small, but spirits where high despite the rain.

Even up hill these cars where getting good speed.

The drifters kept lining up even after a long day when many of them had been up since the early hours of the morning.
It was a great day with lots of new talent and many different weather conditions. This Vic Drift practice day is a great lead up to the Australian Drift GP At Calder, we hope to see you all there!
