no just on the sidelines right up on the fence with my shitty little 28-80mm lens, will get a 70-300mm lens next week then will go again on 2nd of april will get some real close up then.
They have been edited a bit with the computer so they are a bit closer but not much really just a bigger image size.

just bought a 90-300mm lens at lunch so next meet if i go i will be able to get some nice close up scanner will have to wait a little bit cheapest film scanner i've seen is 650 but it does 3200dpi before being digitally enhanced.
That or i will ask my uncle what he is doing with his and I might be able to get his for a while.

The picture of that black sprinter was probably the only drift that looked normal! The car was really un-settled, he seemed to be wrestling with the wheel like it was tryin to kill him or something! Whenever he understeered he'd grab a bunch of the brakes and go flying off into the sand.

thats what i meant also by it was hard to take pics of cos it was unsettled it didn't achieve the angles some of the others did or at least didn't hold them long enough for photos, i tried by following him for a couple of laps with the camera but the car was just too unsettled.
A few seemed to battle understeer. the white 180sx towards the end struggled on the corner coming on to the main straight.

That's Andrew (Bathurst-91). He improved a hell-of-a-lot on Saturday, but yeah, there are some real gremlins in his suspension tune that really need to be sorted out.
The understeer has been ridiculous at driftland on the last couple of meets. On the recent Friday night practice, I eventually just gave up and parked my car! You'd wind on full lock, trying to get it to turn and nothing..... Then it would bite and spin you off the track. Pretty much everyone who was there had similar problems. Dunno why.
Oh yeah, forgot to mention, his panhard rod mount snapped off on the chassis! Didn't help matters much

Yeh, one of the white 200's with the massive gold mags on the front had really bad understeer, i think it might have been from the lack of weight on the nose?
