I only went the Sunday, and entered the Z in the show n shine. I got there a bit before 10am (I'm a 2 hour drive away), and getting them to let me in the gate was a challenge (show cars were to be there at 8am). Luckily I used my good "people skills" and managed to get in. It was a great day, a few other forum members turned up (AussieZ32, kiff, gonzo, taszedder). I said hello to Matt, Caz, and Dan in the Drift Z pit. I ended up spending more time catching up with old friends etc... than watching the event haha I did however watch my mate win the SD class in his white 180SX. I only took a handful of pics (which is more than I normally take), but they aren't very good. I didn't take any action shots, as my camera sucks! It was great to see all the different cars out there competing. A lot struggled with the Symmons track, but others ate it up. Was great watching the extreme entry challenge they had from the pit wall. Having cars fly past only metres from you, totally sideways was unreal! Anyway, here are all the crappy pics I took. I saw Heath (aussieZ32) with his camera out, so hopefully he'll post a few, as well as Caz. 1st Up My mate, Ben Purtell (winner of SD) in his white 180. I do regret not taking more, specially of some of the impressive engine setups. But I've never been one to take many pictures
I also took some crappy pics It was great day and good to catch up with with fellows Zedders. When I was driving in to the car park I couldn't see any Z's until I looked behind me and there where 3 Z's behind me following me.lol My auction shot

Hey Jono I only just realised you have taken your carbon fibre bonnet and grill off... What is the go there ? Are you selling it or are you just having a change. If your selling i would be interested mate.
looks like a great day wish i could've been there. im actually mates with Nathan Weissel (black R32 driver), he does all the work on my zed and keeps pushing me to turn it into a full house drifter. im so close to biting the bullet and doing it.
