I don't get it i've done track days at mallalara and i'm no member of a club. Just about 11 cars including myself turned up we went out and had an absolute blast 5 cars at a time a fast group and slower group (i was in fast ) got up to about 180 or so around the 2nd corner before the sharp left hander and hap an fantastic. No club at all.

One benefit of a car club is access to motor sport such as motorkhana.

[Madaz]

wot exactly happens @ a motorkhana

[Bl4cK32]

timed run over a set course (including reversing?)

[JiN_MaN]

Have you got anymore information on the motorkhana's as im very interested in doing them this year, or even if you could just point me in the right direction.

Just to expand on what Bl4cK32 said, motorkhana's are non-speed events (from memory) usually done in car parks or large surfaced areas. A tight course it set using cones and the driver is timed to complete the corner as fast as possible, you may find the quickest way it reversing in some parts, spinning the wheels to flick the back round or small tight donuts. Classes are made so that you compete against similar cars.

I've got a few vids from a motorkhana I attended.

I'll sort them out and post them up.

[Madaz]

^^ oh not not very good for a AWD car that doesnt have a good turning circle and doesnt allways flick arround due to traction

[Cubes]

Handbrake.

[Madaz]

that would only work if u can get a little speed up first and in a 4door imo its not sumthing u want to be doing

[Cubes]

Mr Magna man doesn't have a problem with 4 doors.

I've got a couple of R32's on vid that were there on the day, i've had problems with a new *CRAP* video editing program called Pinnacle i'm trying for a family friend. Conclusion.. Pinnacle 9 right up to the latest 10.5.2 is total crap, its full of bugs do not buy it!

[Madaz]

any which way he hasny got 1700KG almost and looks to be FWD (not 100% sure)

So it means that u wont be requiring a cams licence then. Which is one of the reasons why some people want a sau sa club.

Mallala is open to race at...

[Madaz]

yeah without cams license u pay extra $20 which isnt too bad for the amount of times u go out there

[Cubes]

Here's that other vid I promised.

As soon as I get the axle tramp sorted via some nice bushes <looks at bl4ck32> I'll be heading out the motorkhana. I won't be driving like that silver r32 though.

[Madaz]

cool got any more skylines

they looked heaps better than the magna

[Cubes]

they looked heaps better than the magna

What do you expect...

No sorry no other vids. Well one of a s14, s15 but they are slow and boaring.

Head down and check it out one morning, the idea is to get around the track as quick as possible.

Leave the GTS4 in first approach the track a little differently and I think you could be pretty quick with some practice.

[Madaz]

do they do it every weekend

[REdgtst]

Kikushi count me in!!!!!!... Im mainly interested on getting out on the track (lala and AIR) aswell as maybe the colllingrove hillclimb events (although the collingrove track is extremeley narrow and if you run off you run into long grass with Boulders which i am not to keen about hitting.--> watched this event with some of the SAU boys last year)

Have to be careful to make street cruises non club affiliated however due to the stitch up laws that are creating a lot of revenue ( and if you look at the figures alot of the problems are on the rise despite stricter penalties being enforced (ie drink driving for one).

Let me know if you need a hand organising anything? PM me as my home computer has been jacked and i dont always cruise around on the forums for very long before it gets shut down and CBF searching all the time.
