Pd round 1 afterthoughts

[Cooldrft]

what the fuck is it with cork and ginger people? i thought i was going to have my soul stolen before we got out of the place

Lol.
For a spectators point of view:
I think the sound system was a major let down.
I couldn't hear what some of the judges were saying at all.
A speed gun on the entry "with a point given for the fastest entry" would have added to the excitement.

As a drifter:
I loved the track, 3rd gear entry
I qualified 12th + was against "gem-s13" in the top 32.
I ran too tight+ straightened a few times on my first run.
The 2nd run I got close to gem a few times but didn't do enough to get through to the top 16.
Looking forward to round 2.

Savage track,Good turnout,some stupid decisions by the judges as usual,one twin battle in particular today which i rekon a lot of people think the same,prodrift need different judges,every round its nearly the same judges and they have favouritism towards some drivers which is a total joke,im surprised darren wasnt left through after his spins even Some things never change i suppose.......

Great day. But as usual judging was a JOKE!
The superlap scores were a shambles.
And in the top 16, some really good drivers were put out because of favoritism.
Its getting really annoying at this stage.
They need different judges each round.
Because it really is a case of who ya know, not how good you are.
Which is so unfair.
On another note the sound system was fuckin awful!

Had a great wkend thanks to micko for lending me his pride and joy,didnt know what to expect never competed in a skyline before but i loved it and the track, was un luckey wid intercooler pipes kept blowing off and kept me from finishing twin battle.

One of best things i seen all wkend was mulvey changing his box throwing car up on its side this was dedication, he hasnt lost any of his skills or bottle.

Their was a funny atmosphere alright and a few unsure results , was well impressed wid shane o sullivan, he s upped his game, mike and christy was a good battle, sinnot unbeliveable as always immense angle and smoke and crowd did appreciate his overtakes. james deane has put his stamp down firmly again he s hungary for another title, hope he can show some of this in jdm allstars,give them somthing to talk about other than big remmi

Another thing that pissed me off was the lack of the whole results tent thing!! For one you know who got through and second its good craic!! Milo just had a sheet and barely even told drivers who was in!

Great first weekend, lots of drama yesterday with Brian getting alittle carried away with a backwards entry in the Compact pity a few cars had big offs though like John Macs M3 and a few others eariler

Huge crowd today but I think the lack of atmosphere was due to a few things like the sound quality from the judging not that great, some odd judging at times which would have any spectator confused. Fair play to Peden and Eric though as their decisions on a few battles was better I think even if the majority was against them.

Think he weather needed to be good and big crowds at the first round so it will help keep the interest throughout the season

Guards being check points and sneaking around the pits towards the end was alittle much though!


There was points going for speed on the radar yesterday as John Mac got a few extra with his entry speeds.

Think it was something like an average speed was found and then your penalised for not keeping within 5mph of it but not sure if they used that system in the end
