QUOTE(zacowacko @ Feb 26 2009, 09:05 PM) [snapback]1283648652[/snapback] NOOB TIME!! So whats the go to get into drifting? I know very little about licenses etc. What are they worth? Is much needed for the car, or is that the easy part? Roughly how often are the meets? How do you guys without sponsors go about tyres? Just have to cough up the $$? Cheers, Zac before the guys answer some of your later questions...... a lot of the early ones are already answered in the hidden valley info thread. meets are monthly, but then TEDA may/will organise a few extra practice sessions and stuff between them. |

exactly then you have cams licence which i believe is 55 for the year and Namsc membership which is 99 for the year i am pretty sure. Then you got teda membership which is i think 49ish for the year or you can go full teda member ship around 150 for te year which included all licences to drift. Meets are monthly and it cost around 44 per meet to drift. Practise dayse are organised and you get notified about them. |

Oh Timmy you have much to learn young son..... There are things called blems in the tyre world. These are tyres that are not 100% from factory so there for they sell them cheap to people that know about them etc. We ( being bridgestone) have the ability to buy these cheap and pass them on only adding $5 per tyre. There for they can be sourced for the same price as there Federals as can the adrenalins etc. |

There for they can be sourced for the same price as there Federals as can the adrenalins etc. Shane stated that he loves the Bridgestone Supercats over anything he has tries including the federal. That is funny cos they are like the bottom of the range bridgestone. On top of that alot of the drivers stated on the weekend that the only good thing about the federals were that they lasted ages. But once hot they lost grip in a big way and the sideways felt flimsey...... So in short yes i would like to get better tyres for the club and its members etc at the same price as what there getting in now. Why wouldnt you ??????????? All of the above would be brought in bulk buy of around 30 a order etc. I would have bought bridgies but your boss is a fucking git. Got some Advan A048 for cheap cheap! |

But the diamond backs are cheap as man only advertised for around the 105 mark for 235/45R17..... Sounds weird your paying more for them. Might even be able to try a different federal.... See how we go. Were in Talks with them now in regards to what is available and when we can get them. Looking at Supercats or maybe hancooks. |

jus to add i just got the hookup for some tyres and seeming as i cant advertise the company on here and who's supplying them PM for some details. $135 per tyre 235/45/17 fitted. as many as you want. Them federals are being used all over aus and yes they are the bottom of the range but have had some favourable reviews and some not so. depends on personal preference. harden up guys go faster lols hopefully my car is gonna be ready mid year, then for some tyre burning fun. |
