Pre-Entry is available and is highly encouraged to help save time in the morning as you only have to show your cams/aasa license, pay (if you didnt pre-pay) and collect your arm bands! How easy is that!
Please encourage your mates to pre-enter too! You can still pay your entry fee in cash on the day but email me through your pre-entry form to save time..

Pre-entries are now being taken. Please note that entries emailed to me between 1/4 - 12/4 will not get a confirmation until after the 13th as i am out of the country.



Acceptable Licenses are: AASA or Cams L2NS - No license means no going on the track!
On the day purchase of AASA license:
AASA license $50
(Can be purchased at the Winton office on the morning of the drift day. This needs to be done before you come into the scrutineering bay to pay and have your car scrutineered as entries will not be accepted without proof of license or receipt of payment from Winton)

Please note : VDC board members will be checking aasa and cams licenses, this year we will be checking everyone. Please ensure all your licenses and memberships cards are valid.

8:00AM - scrutineering will start

Are the laps timmed? dorian style?

dont worry you will see some drifting v tec will kick in once in a while.

No the laps are not timed.

The comp is basically "initial D rules".Cars run as a pair through pre determined set of corners.One car leads other follow. Two runs, cars swap each run. If your leading and you pull away without gripping up..... you win. If your following, and you fall behind.....you loose.....but if you stay on the lead cars door.... you'll win the battle.

any questions feel free to post em up and i'll answer.....

I used to be a nissan guy (180sx) but recently had mid life crises and sold the track drift car and bought me a mx5 ! yay
