My First Skidpan

[IanB]

Howdy everyone

I had my first day at a skidpan on sunday, up at gympie as apparently the folks out at mt cotton have over-senitive ears, I had a ball and learnt a thing or two about controlling skids.

It can be found at: http://tinyurl.com/3e4be9

I think the vids cool have a look and let me know what you think. Bear in mind it was my first day at the skidpan and id never tried anything remotely like drifts before this.

Regards

Ian

My apoligies for the cumberstone way in which you have to download the file, if anyone knows of a better website for me to upload to, please let me know.

Y O U T U B E D O T C O M ! ! !

what are the links of the ones you tried? Could you possible make them smaller on you computer before you upload them?

Best damn thing you ever did Ian. Car control baby.

[Bunta]

pull the fuse next time! Get properly sideways!

[IanB]

So hold on, it works for some people but not others?

Weird...

Ive found a better option for somewhere to upload it to, hold on

[IanB]

Ok, a much better download source is http://tinyurl.com/3e4be9

should be one whole download, hosted in aus, no adds etc etc.

The minor technicality that im not a paid SAU member anymore...

I paid it for a year, didnt get anything really for my money and am a uni student these days so I cant throw cash around. Sorry.

[Eug]

didn't see the vid as it's 170MB!

good to see that you're getting some steering under your belt.

I paid it for a year, didnt get anything really for my money

care to elaborate? pm if necessary

are you saying the club offered nothing, or offered nothing to your liking?

from memory 3 skidpan days were run last year.

Might have some, ill chase it up for you, its not my camera and ill have to get them off him.

Well, check out what happens in the Qld events section.. there is always something happening.

and not just skid pans..

I'm running heaps of stuff this year. Most of which is booked out, but you can go on a list.

I had 5 cars pull out.. so 5 cars on the list went in. simple ehh.

I'm doin 2 SAU days.. this year

3 of my own local-ish cars days

1 bundy/marybgh day

and now another day for a begging club...

SAU does heaps of stuff. They travelled from brizvegas to do a skid day with me. and i always see cruises and drags and skid pans and drifts and dyno days and bla bla bla bla.. I'm sure u like to do somethin like that.

From what i have seen of the SAU crew.. they rock! get ya name down on a list or 3!

[IanB]

Yeah? Maybe things have changed since they went to the sauqld site, I never really bothered to sign up there. Not the best spot in the world to talk about this tho, it has a good chance of de-railing the thread.

Gympie is a long way out, I dont know if I can be doing regular trips plus $100 or more, maybe once every now and then however. I wish we had better motorsport facilities in brisbane.
