Hey guys was playing around with one of the images, still not perfect though.

Got my copy of the dvd today

Excellent filming skills terry thanks for the dvd

Was layed out well and great to watch

Had a awesome day pity my tyres didn't last very Long but next time round I'm going to bring 3 pairs and turn down the power as it was a handful and just chewed thru the tyres

When is the next texi being held ?

[GoldZilla]

Details for the next Texi will be announced closer to the date - we've got a few other things lined up for Club Members in the mean time.

If you're not a paid-up Club Member, why not? There are quite a few events that we put on which are exclusive to Members, and the only way you'll hear about them before they're on is if you're part of SAU-NSW.

If anyone learns anything about this weekend, It better be "Don't f**k with Terry's coffee"

Was there ever a "go to whoa" comp at texi? Wouldn't be hard just to set it up between changing courses. Could be fun to test the skills vs power

[r32-25t]

Yes the two that I entered both had them

[GoldZilla]

Yep, I remember sitting next to Duncan in Kel's old 350Z convertible during a go-to-whoa a few years back. Was much fun, even from the passenger's seat!

[Duncan]

ahh good old z, that was fun to hoon in.

I wasn't able to be at this one, but I have been thinking that a good addition might be a little more instruction and technique. Yes skids are fun, but I think there is also a space for learning good habits too. I think because the exec tend to be experienced competitors they design for challenge but not always for beginners.

A potential idea would be to reserve the first 1/3 of the day for some basic skidpan skills, people who aren't interested in that could arrive at say 11 and miss it all. Suggested exercises like go to whoa (launching and braking), basic 180o turn around a cone (handbrake/understeer control/flick oversteer) and maybe a simple track like multiple loop below (smooth driving, multiple 180 turns and easy to get right)

In the end, a texi is not really a doughnut competition is it....

[75coupe]

Yep, that would be cool, i found texi completely different to a full track in driving style

If I can have my car scrutineered at 11am I wouldn't have to get up at 6am to get there for a 7.30 check-in! =-D
