Drift Match Croatia Round 3 - Karlovac report
Dear all,
5th victory in a row for me. I am very happy with my results and the car. Track layout in Karlovac was strange to me and was not suited to my car. Narrow track with lots of slow bends meant I needed to use 1st gear all the time and use 2nd only for a transition and then downshift in 1st while braking. I struggled in the training searching the ideal speed/line/angle. In last training I managed to find what I was looking for, but there was just not enough time to train it to perfection. So I was bit nervous, not sure if I could do everything perfect. I drove very reserved, not wanting to spin. Day was extremely hot (38°C) and cars were overheating due to the low speed drifts, so I decreased boost level to 0.7 bar since in 1st gear not much power is needed and car heats much less. I won in competition over 12 cars. Generally, lot's of drivers improved their drifting and much better driving could be seen. Too bad that only around 1000 people visited the event in Karlovac. Few pictures. My car under the tent and support vehicle full of tires Wicked track layout Except drift, there was also DB drag and EMMA competition Drifters and their friends, searching the shade on a very hot day Me, resting in a VIP booth Format X with his new paint job/hood/fenders....

Tnx to> Format X for fixing my electric vents, Boris, Ines, Vanja, Renata, Stress for stickers, Mario and my dad for driving the support car and trailer + video recording Next event for me is Drift Challenge Wachauring” on August 26th and 27th 2006. http://www.oeamtc.at/index.php?type=arti...id=1120331 Drifting - best fun you can have in your car with your pants on! |
