Regina drift day
 
5 Attachment(s)
Well Regina drift day was a smashing success! Friday I took the supra out for its official make it or break it run, took it to toyota and they checked out my oil pressure problem and narrowed it down to the pressure sending unit. From there I bumped into my friends randomly while driving back home and we ended up heading to the shop out in the boonies. We que'd the music and worked on the cars from 3 pm to 2 am that night to get them ready for the drive to Regina. Needless to say it was a long/short night, we all only got about 2 hours of sleep before heading out.

My brother and I were up by 5;30 am, I slept in big time due to only getting back home at 3 am. So we quickly packed up the car with all the camera gear and put the tires to the pavement. Got the the buddies place at 630 and loaded up the rest of the stuff and off we went.

We ended up getting to Regina at 9:30 am but got lost trying to find the track. Turned out we missed a turn almost immediately and went a mile or two off track but it didnt take us long to correct and we made it to the track with 10 min to spare before the driver lockout.

We were still some of the first people to arrive but by the 10am cut off the pits had filled up and driver briefing began.

Before long the drivers briefing was over and it was time to lay down some big time rubber. I tried to get video with my cell phone but it was so windy most of the footage was junk.

The first casualty was a 95 skyline gt-r with the r34, guy came with the intent to blow it up so he could put his new motor in. Got it to the pits smoking bad and then put the pedal down, ended with a rod going through the block.

lol awesome bro. i enjoyed watching the bmw crash lol... slow motion.

mechrider89 10-29-2012 12:29 AM

haha ya the guy said it was the best $2500 he ever spent!
I've been busy searching for parts for the supra like crazy, finally put another add on Kijiji for what I was looking for and finally got a couple replies. Might be getting a new hatch soon if the price is right. I finally found a new wiper control module, and I have two wiper speeds now but its still not really fixed, has to be the column switch like you stated before then. What a piss off!!:crazy2:

let me know if you want me to get you a set of column switches, because there is currently an 84 getting parted out in my neck of the woods, and i can get it cheap. as well as any other small parts.

Ya sure! if you could that'd be great, I also need both front running and signal lights, mine have both housings broken so they flop around. Let me know how much they cost ya and I'll wire you some doe.
Might not be getting a new hatch after all, the guy from s'toon had a mint black 85 he was trying to get rid of cuz the engine was toasted and he had it crushed monday! :nono: So back to square one on the hatch idea.

hahaha well if you'd have only known, I'd have paid you well for it. I'm sure I'll eventually get one, even if I have to make the 2 1/2 hour drive to regina or go to Edmonton I'll do it but it'll probably have to wait till I get my safely bonus from work. I was on winnipege kijiji yesterday and seen an add for a 85 mk2 that was parked 1998 and wasn't run since 05 all original with 164000 km on the OD......:bow:
I want to paint my car the exact same color now....... sooo sexy!
