Jay was going seriously well for such a standard car!!
Whats done to the lock on the 14 darragh??? Seemed to have savage lock.
[QUOTE=juice;275669]I honestly don't know what he's done with it since Mondello but before then we'd just spaced out the rack and moved the lock stops which allowed for plenty of lock easily.Quote:

was there trade stands and stuff?
How did Dan moorhead go?
Really enjoyed the weekend! Weather, incredible driving in all classes and co-commentating with Mike Fitz made it for me. Congrats to Alan Synott, well deserved and the standard in non-seeded and amatuer is on another level this year :-)
will dmac be at fermoy does anyone know?
So....... how did the regular Di posters do? Dan Moorehead, Chris Brady, Chucky, Gem, and the rest....
What did Dmac do with the 86? Just a display?
Gem was raped nuff said
well done mckeever and well done ta best mechanic paddy bleekz :p
Savage weekend, quality cars, drivers, battles , sessions and weather. As with all drift events people get carried away with their opinion of the truth but the judges have a tough job and when you feel things don't swing your way there's no need to throw the toys out of the pram, takes the enjoyment factor out if it for all involved. FairPlay to the effort put in to make novice interesting by the commentator and crew , makes big difference
Gem was not raped he was slimed!! Lol
But seriously you gotta remember this is the amature class
And all the moaning in the world and negative coments
Is only taking the crack out of it.
I reckon fairplay to mike for carrying the big speed entry
And fairplay to him for his first battle making the top16.
if its gems incident your referring to, you may be slightly biased eh?? i was there at the start finish line and there was definate issues relating to the start of the clock etcQuote:

One of the closest battles all day imo was Chris and Nigel in the first twin the two lads were flawless really hard to be seperated , set the standard for the rest of the battles!
Serious driving out of Alan lenihan too very aggresive.
Fair play to all the non seeds that got through to today not an easy thing to do great driving lads
Ambiguity is a part of drifting and will always be a part of it due to the nature in which it is judged. Judges use a discretion which bends the rules as needs see at each round. Sometimes it favours who you are biased towards sometimes not. If gem was 1 second late on a 5 min rule would u still be so definitive about the rules? Just curious, it's only for fun like
On a lighter note James deane's consistency is frightening , top runs all day FairPlay to de pros for de savage display of lunacy
savage day to day sun was shining along with some brilliant driving all day,,, its tough on drivers i think down there as all there hard work and hard earned money spent on there cars and 1 small fuck up could see it smashed up with them big concrete walls but well done to them all and well done to alan well deserved but tough call....
Really enjoyed today, wouldnt be a big fan of the venue but the quality of drivers and cars is just amazing, the whole drifting community should be proud of prodrift.
The battles were the highlight, absolutely sticking cars to the wall, fair play to all involved, never seen so many "one more times" or deserved anyway.
Good few highlights, the roar of that v8 (still put in its place by the might sr's though), carpos s15 is just amazing to both look at and to go (minus both bumpers for a while), watching a toyota powered nissan and a nissan powered toyota battling it out, was fantastic. Oh and a special mention for a certain 15 Y/O who I reckon we will see alot more of and the bang off that car is awesome
Rightly enjoyed today I must say. The Brady/Colfer battles were worth the entrance fee alone. McCarthy's V8 M3 was only sexual, unreal sound off of it. Duane McKeever was a little inconsistent early on in the day but by fuck he drove like a pro later on, defo one to watch for the future. Also what a beast of a car 786bhp!! As always James Deane's driving was god-like especially in an unfamiliar car. The Lenihans were pretty awesome too. The over all standards of cars/drivers seems to be ever increasing.
As for the stationary cars today, the DMAC 86 is a beautiful machine and is it just me or do the battle scars on Frenchy's tezza make it even better looking ??
ps. Nice bums around today too lol
Raging i missed this, glad it went well! :)
See ye in fermoy!
Great weekend and good start to the season and good to see a decent crowd on both days. Saturdays amateur and non-seed was brilliant and the best in terms of standard of driving and the good commentating both days really added to the atmosphere and will really help keep the crowds coming to the later rounds once the weather is favorable as people actually know what they are watching.
As Brian said, the Consistency of James' runs was unbelievable. Right from the practice run this morning, the car was within inches of all three walls and bang on all the clipping points but fair play to Sinnot for winning it in the end.
Better off just letting the controversy of Saturdays battle settle as its just one of those things that goes round in circles especially if its debated over the internet!
Personally I thought the Compact was going to be in the grandstand with rate he took off down the straight and fair play for getting so far for his first time qualifying and into the last 16.
