First timers: Don't be shy, you'll love it.

Those of you that have been to one of these before will agree, this is the best money you can spend as far as driving time for an event. The event will be run after run until 3.30pm, and considering most runs are under 1 minute AND that we're kicking off at 9am, that's a lot of runs :thumbsup:

This is a safe event where you only go as hard as you want to, there's no pressure, one car on a course at a time. Perfect for beginners to have a first try at driving their pride and joy off the streets.

Motorkhana is a low cost way to get involved in motorsport. You can get your first taste of motor sport in your standard road car, but this discipline also caters to the most skilled and experienced of drivers in highly modified or purpose built Motorkhana specials.

The competition is designed to test the acceleration, braking and manoeuvrability of a vehicle and the skill and judgement of the crew members.

A motorkhana may be conducted on a sealed or unsealed surface and involves manoeuvring through tight and twisty tests marked by flags.

Cars will be started individually and there will be one car on course at one time.

With that said, there's usually some friendly competition between mates, which is great to watch :D

This Event will be the 1st Round of a 3 Round Championship.

Round 1 Sunday March 22nd 2015 Texikhana

Round 2 Monday 24th August 2015 Trackday

Round 3 Sunday 25th October 2015 Texikhana

Championship presentation will be at the Club Open General Meeting in November 2015

Points for the Championship will be awarded to SAUNSW Financial Members only.

Points are awarded for Top 20 fastest times 20 points for 1st descending to 1 point for 20th.

CAMS send you a booklet with a sticker that you put on the first page.

Thanks a bunch. So cams will send me something. I have emailed them to check.

See you guys soon!

Will take the side pipe off the race car and fit the rear exit one. Have my hands on a free trailer and tow car again so should be right to do this event. Still also hold a valid club racing license so ill be all set. Probably see you all there.

Can the wife pay on the day to be a passenger?

Yes Passengers pay on the day. They will need to also sign a waiver and will need the same safety gear as the driver.. so helmet, long sleeve clothing, pants, enclosed shoes etc.

Ps how is entrants looking? Still room?

There is still plenty of room, when it books out we will put up a post saying.

Howdy,

I would like to come down again and attend this event with the 86. I have tried to get a few more keen unsuccessful for now. In regards to becoming a SAUNSW member where and how to I join up? Ill be coming to all 3 events this year and participating. Should I do an entry form at eventbrite now or await for SAUNSW membership to make a little cheaper prior to paying for the event? Thanks

Looking for to this event...

Hopefully I get my catch can setup in on time at this stage still waiting on the oil filler neck and intake pipe on the front of the turbo to be made STILL to be able to fit the oil catch can properly with a 20mm hose but still keen to fry some treads!!!

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
