[VIC] Forum Battle 2012 Coverage
Forum Battle 2012, a competition between forums all over Australia. Competing to be crowned the “king forum”. The competition day was Saturday which involved the Time Attack, Motorkhana, Drags and Rally stages. With Sunday being the Show N’ Shine. Saturday was a disaster for organisers as the weather was atrocious. The rain only cleared for spots of 5 minutes before it flashed down hard onto the competitor’s rides as the battle took place. Covering the forum battle Saturday was Bernard Tang and Myself.
First stop as soon as we arrived was to head over to Honda, pretty much the main reason why any of us would have attended :P
The two Jazz’s were on display whilst the team worked on the engine, and that Red-Head Mugen tuned K20 under the bonnet
Some rather wicked aero parts on this beast
The Gorilla Industries supra was off chops, wicked fast for the time it had on the day
R35 Love was had all round on the day, didn’t see the car out on the track but you could tell it was the centre of attention
Some Cars for Hope rep <3
One mighty fine silvia that ripped it up in both the time attack as well as the gymkhana
CRZ safety car was quite a surprise, took a snap of the baby (would have loved to see the engine bay as it was very quick on the track)
The partner in crime (and his wet camera)
We refused to look like this guy and rathered to have our cameras wet :P
Some epic extreme camber in the rally paddock team carpark
Jazz takes on Rally Calder, full mud all round’
This summed up what it was like to be a photographer on the day. Looks cool being in a bib with credentials, however lots of events were cancelled and you were left out in the rain ankle deep in mud, what a day :P
Vedy Vedy fast Porche
It would appear the Jazz needed more lows, however mud flap scrape would have occurred :P
Marty from Mighty Car Mods, top bloke in person
This car’s colour could not be described or photographed perfectly, it was so perfect in every way
No one was really sure if this car was out in the time attack for a joke or not, was kind of confusing especially then the second car was chasing it down!
