commence the attack!

zeki has updated his Minkara blog with more choice DR30/general OS Nissan meet photos from this weekend just been. Sometimes I wish that sort of thing happened here – but I guess that’s what the annual Auckland classic Jap meets are all about. (fake edit: Also some photos from the same event by SKYHAND, here)

take off every Zig, for great justice!

Flawless Track-Day, MarkII

October 16, 2009

You may remember, earlier this year.  Jarred (FLAWLES) ran a track-day at Taupo and by all accounts it was entirely successful, so much so that there were calls immediately for another.  Although this was unable to take place in such a short space of time, I received word yesterday that another one has been booked and you have several months to get yourself ready for it.  Here’s the details!

Date : 23rd May 2010 ( 7 months away )
Location: Taupo Race Track (Track Lay-out #2)

Ed and I were harmlessly browsing all things Japanese Automotive and for sale, sending links back and forth, when he fired me a particularly badass one that contained such images as these;

Thanks to the wonderful (and well known to RC and it’s reader’s) Jarred a.k.a FLAWLES, we’ve been graced with a hundred and one third-ish (they’re Ford’s, so are measured in an Imperial nature) of the Ford Muscle Car Club’s Trackday.  Which other than a few ghastly and boring moderns, looks to have been a hell of a time out.  I’ve provided a few samples which caught my eye when browsing the album, you can check them all out on the gallery link at the end of the entry, so without any further delay;

Only a few, as it seems to chew through the batteries on my camera so at the start of the day after a couple I decided I would use it sparingly to a point where I forgot almost entirely to use the video function at all.  They’re taken with a little SONY DSC-H2 Point & Shoot.  So you’ll have to forgive the shake and quality.


That’s it. Sorry.
