Friday Flow


RE-Xtreme Style


And a whole bunch of cool at GCRC this friday night!



Let's start with the purple punch!


one 


two


three.


RE-Xtreme Sex Spec FD now running low Matt Black Enkei RP-01 - Very cool!


Joined by this beast of S13



Do you like PURPLE! 


Rear Wheel Drive and High CS 3.0+ running together.


Respectful driving getting close, for action, but leaving the right gap for constant tripple drift.


Traffic makes it even better.


 A lot of shots from a lot of laps side by side.


Into your face!


Along the wall!


Shinning up the competition. 


Just a recap...


Rear wheel drive S13on FXX


Four Wheel Drive 240ZX on R3R


Rear Wheel Drive 180sx on FR-D


High CS FDon R3R


I borrowed some rims for a little while... I had left my CE28N at home. Doh!


These +0 HPI TE37 were looking cool.


And these +0 old style rims suited the Gemini well too.


but dark rims at night are hard to see.


So I ripped it up for a while with these. Note 1/100 scale Caslonic Skyline... Super cool.

WTAC Flash Back


sarti-wan gogo!

924


FD3s of course.


Getty busy like a bumble B


I used to own an NC Roadster, While it was tuned, it was nothing like this. Funny thing though... that car was sold in 2011 and this car was in the build way back then.


Top Fuel S2000! White Lightening with fluid wind tunnel tested lines flowing beautifully over the skin..


US boys looked like bolt on bolt ons on top of bolt ons. Effective maybe, but I can't imagine the Skybox having the slipperiest profile. 


I so want to rip the sickers off this machine.


Drift Kat.


In Japan, RE-Amamiya ran in the GT 300 class. This car is now much quicker than the Super GT car ever was. Even hindered by a full RX7 Chassis and low profile Sport tyres. 


On the pulse.


love the rear overhang on this astra.

Still more to see.

Rays CE28-N 8 spoke


Getting the "right" colour for Rays Bronze is always a challenge.



 These were previously gold, but a splash of Smoke had them looking pretty good. Gold no longer available from rays... so Bronze it is.


8 spokes were always the smaller 4 stud small car design sold only in 14-16inch , so they should suit the Gemini well.


I'm not sure if the 8 spoke was ever big enough for the 180sx, with max size at 16x7+25 but they look awesome.


Even the Duffys approve. Makeshift white background working well. 3mm coreflute does the job.

Wednesday Mid Weeky


Grab your flannel shirt, Let's Rock and Roll!




 It was a busy night testing, but I squeezed in a fun run with the Torana and Gemini.


The side on imagery was awesome!


but the torana is VERY VERY VERY wide up front.


 So it lost of bit of realism on track.


Skippy is a friends car, but I supplied a BOGAN sticker set for the Holden LJ Torana GTR-XU-1


BLAST TIME!


Flame ON!


Sometimes there's a bunch up.


Sometimes there's room for transition.


Sometimes only just enough.


All on line.

throwing it into a high speed  corner.


 Sometimes things are off line, but it all works out for constant drift laps.

Groovy!
