Drifting News Cont'd Fernando Wiehrl scored the maximum 500 points available – the first time this has been achieved in 2007 – by claiming the top qualifier position as well as the win. Fernando’s position in the championship has leapfrogged to 5th overall, putting him well into contention for the title. That said, Fernando was humble over his chances. “We aren’t really concentrating on points or the championship at the moment. Our goal is to get the S15 into a strong position setup-wise for next year. At Oran Park, we’ll take each battle as it comes, just like we did at Queensland Raceway” he said. “If we have a chance to get the win at Oran Park, you can rest assured that I’ll do whatever I can to get it. I want to back up our win in Queensland and that would be the best way to do it.” “I’d also like to express our utmost thanks and appreciation to all of our sponsors and partners, who have put in some tremendous work to get the car to where it is. Auto Salon, Industrie, Bridgestone, IS Motor Racing, Exedy, AME Wheels, Hypertune, J Racing, Haltech, Bilstein, Hi-Octane, Tomei, GCG Turbos and PPGearbox” Fernando concluded.
The Auto Salon Industrie Adrenalin Racing team aren’t resting on their laurels, with the S15 Nissan 200SX already back in Sydney being prepared for testing. “The team believes that there is a lot more potential in the car, and we are striving to hit its setup sweet spot sooner rather than later” Kha said. “As this is our first year in Drift Australia, we knew from the get go it was going to be a tough hill to climb – especially considering we only had a few months to build the car from scratch – so in previous rounds teething problems have hidden what the car is truly capable of.” The final round of the 2007 Toyo Drift Australia series hits Oran Park on September 22-23rd.

Cars Fitted With Bilstiens 1st and 2nd. In Round 4.
Wiehrl 1st. “It certainly has been a turbulent season thus far! We’ve had a lot of bad luck – especially at Round 3 at Eastern Creek – and it is such a huge relief to notch ours and Fernando’s maiden victory in the Drift Australia Series” Team Manager Charles Kha said. The weekend of Round 4 started off in the best way possible, with driver Fernando Wiehrl putting the S15 into qualifying’s top spot. Fernando then went up against Sampson, Truscott, Trewhella, May and then finally Bolger in the final, where a re-run was in order to determine the victor. “We couldn’t have asked for a greater victory really. It was extremely difficult as we went up against some extremely strong competitors. The final in particular against Bolger was a privilege to watch; both Robbie’s and Fernando’s driving was impeccable and closely matched.” |
The Typhoon is definitely
a crowd pleaser, as even though it wasn’t running all weekend, it still
had hundreds of people crowding around to get a closer look.
Chris Alajajian, who we have followed since the early
days of his racing career, has recently been signed to make his debut in a
