Looks like alot of fun, id be keen on practising for it, i don't think there is anywhere in SA available for it tho.

[Krishy]

well damo just enter mate and give it a go really

thats the only way you would be able to get better at it

[scandyflick]

yeah, just enter with me and krish, damo. only way to practice is to get out there and give it a go.

I am just hoping that this doesnt clash with my futsal games on sunday

[samstain]

Yeah you dont need to practice for the events, we are not racing for sheep-stations, 99% of the guys are just out there for the fun of it... in reality the whole series is just a heap of practice days leading up to the state and national champs each year, thats about the only time we get really serious - and even then your only racing for a $10 trophy.

We regularly get people out there that have never driven a car before, no one is going to make you feel un-welcome if you don't do complete a perfect handbrake turn every time (or even one in the whole day), we also don't care if you stuff up the course - you just have to be seen to be trying to complete it to the best of your ability. If you get lost half way round just head for the finish gate - as long as you dont do a series of donuts on the spot between when you get lost and when you get to the finish gate you wont be spoken to by the officials.

Your better off doing your learning at an event, guys will be there to help you out if your having trouble with your technique (or car set up, simple things like tyre pressure make a big difference), and at most events you can ride shotgun with one of the regulars, or ask one of them to jump in with you for some pointers.

Looks like so much fun, but I wouldn't have the driving skill to do some of the shit Chad was. That last vid you really had it by the balls man

[craig R33]

wooot!!

been discussing with the missus bout the possibility of me building a track car for motorkahnas and drift pracs

to my amazement she is pretty supportive!

so, my hunt begins for a manual 31

my mate rocco, the owner of skyline city imports also offered to help me in the build in return for some

panel spaces..

just gotta watch my budget

[J - Rad]

rb26 craig! thats all you'll need!

[craig R33]

naa out of my budget range..

prob just a rb20, with little/no interior f*k all weight, it should be a nice track hack

Have a look there guys. Got one of me hitting limiter so turn it up lol

[J - Rad]

I must say Chad man you got some skill. Good work.

What gear where you using? 1st or 2nd?

[craig R33]

id say 2nd, in first he would be on the limiter pretty much the whole time haha

good work boys!!

i cant wait.

[Luke_ENR34]

Both of us were using first. Its basically accelerate turn hand-brake and just keep doing that.

[craig R33]

i stand corrected

[DSTROY]

Cheers mate I think we both did pretty well for our first time out. Cant wait to get out there again

[Damo_R34]

yeh count me in, luke talked me into it

[rad100]

ill be out at the next one!

[craig R33]

is there any regs the car needs to meet boys?

ie, stripped interior?ok? not ok?

does it need to be registred?

[Stagstock]

Can't wait for the next one after march... I'll finally drag the 32 out and use it for the first time. Other than just round the workshop that is lol.

[Aberax]

Wow, those vids look good. I would love to do it, but unfortunately cant as i am working, and don't have the handling capabilities for my car, and my handbrake doesn't lock up the rear.
