Initial Drift Australia

What a wonderful thing a 4 day Easter long weekend is.  On one hand you don't need to work for a whole 4 days, and if you do, you get paid handsomely for it.  On the other, it creeps up on you until you realise at the last minute that all the shops are shut on Good Friday and you haven't bought dog food.  If you're like me, you spend a frantic trip down to the shops after work on Thursday, only to find a mad dash and horrendous panic only to be rivalled by the few days before Christmas.

Calm down people, the shops are shut for one day.

There is a light at the end of the tunnel however.  You see, after the hot cross buns have gone slightly stale and you've eaten as much crème eggs as your body and PT will allow, the Easter Monday at Wakefield raceway presents Initial Drift Australia.

A wonderful grass roots event where 'run what you brung' is the name of the game.  the 2015 event was slightly drizzly but that didn't stop the drifters, in fact, it made it a cheaper event as they didn't have to waste tyres on the unforgiving asphalt.  What they lacked in smoke, they more than made up for in wall scraping manji!


























Happy days!

See you at the track
