Got the call up to compete in @easterndriftchampionship Round 3 as the wildcard driver, battled my way to the top but got taken out by @warwickhilldrift after going OMT 3 times, still very stoked to come home with 2nd place 🥈
time for another 180SX respray with @hamrcoatings
Huge thanks to @thecruisercompany for sponsoring this round
Ended the 2024 @vicdrift season with a wet one, was a suboptimal performance with the new car refusing to work for any practice and an unpredictable track surface but still got it done enough to take out first place in the overall championship, couldn’t have asked for a better first ever season
Cant thank @chaser_enjoy@maxgouds@buurg@renskle and the others who helped to get the machine finished in the nick of time enough, this car was a bare shell 6 weeks ago
Also huge thanks go to;
@hamrcoatings for jumping on board as a sponsor helping out with all our paint and mixing custom colours for all the @1313.style cars
@tda.customs & @shinzogarage for sponsoring fab work and supporting at the track
@thecruisercompany for all of our blasting & powdercoating
@shockworks_suspension for setting the new hot rod up and making it a grip reaper
@gripshiftslide.gss for the best photos
time to keep thrashing this hot rod
Completed the novelty cheque set with a 3rd place at @vicdrift Round 3, huge congrats to @johnhursty and @chrisinamuck for 1st & 2nd, unreal driving from everyone all day
green 180 was fun while it lasted but didn’t survive, will be back for round 4 with a new car
and thanks to @gripshiftslide.gss and others for all the photos
First ever competition was a success, battled to the top but got knocked out by big dog Mr. Gruener in the final, still beyond happy to come home with 2nd
big ups all the fellas who came to support and head mechanic @chaser_enjoy for keeping the car from falling apart
bring on @vicdrift Round 2
