Is it okay if i enter in a beastly mazda 2??

Actually would go perfectly fine on the skidpan... You don't need power or rwd to have stupid amounts of fun

don;t think we ahve had a roll over, I do remember seeing a FOz's spinning drive shafts it was that angled over however.

another club had a Micra roll over.

but huge turbo and stock suspension and not the chicanes we use...bad mojo..

Mick came up last time in his Territory... It wallowed about it dominated times... came 2nd in 4wd if I recall correctly... Keep in mind it was up against evos and gtrs...

Maybe not the ML then... Probably not the S500L either, that big barge wouldn't get around the first cone....

Something a bit more nimble might come up.

Does this go through regardless of weather? Just with it being this time of year wasn't sure if it would get cancelled if it's heavy rain / storms?

Definitely not cancelled, would just mean a really slippery skid pan. Bring a poncho and umbrella, we haven't cancelled one yet!

all wet weather does is take the advantage away from those 300+kw track cars.

and those with a bit more road orientation have much much more chance.

oh and cheating evos as well.

Would not mind slightly wet skidpan, it's usually fun when there's one or two puddles but not completely soaked

I don't have a handbrake to slide and my guards aren't liking full lock at the moment :(

Wet skidpan is fine...

wet back track though.... my fear is real, even though there's no enbankments

Yeah that's my concern, that looked sketchy in that recent vid in the dry.... no real run off there... tree's oh god the tree's.

The back tracks have been modified since the last videos were taken, they've now got protective barriers between you and any hazard... It's 10 times safer for you and your car than any other real race track, haven't seen any real damage to a car in all the years I've been going...

Yeah that's my concern, that looked sketchy in that recent vid in the dry.... no real run off there... tree's oh god the tree's.

You'd be surprised how well you can go time wise with these, just by taking them slowly...you end up beating everyone who hits a cone in the finishing gate and those who spin out / lose it. Take it at your own pace - you get an 80% run before your timed run; good chance to scope out how fast you wanna take it.

    • You now say stumble, but you said cut out before. Will it slow rev through the cut/stumble? What gap were your spark plugs set to when you them in?
    • I had double clamped all the pipes but I checked them over any way, everything tight and secure. feels and sounds like a electrical short/failure, as it is an abrupt and aggressive stumble, that instantly comes and goes right at 4k mark...like clock work fuel pump and filter are new new coils and plugs injectors where cleaned and tested 200 miles plus ago no black smoke cleaned MAF   same results, other ideas? some other sensor?  
    • Yes, just without the annoying use of the word hybrid. We stopped using that term 20 years ago when we realised it meant different things to different people. Even "highflow" can represent more than one way of achieving the goal of getting more flow out of a turbo. But at least it says what it does on the box.
    • OH, when they say "solid buckets", I always interpeted that as "shimless". (Which is not the same as the "shimness word I invented above to represent the same idea that the buckets act as shims also!!). Still the same problem though. So it appears that buying a "kit" from Tomei is a two step process. Makes sense. Doesn't make sense in the context of a "kit" though.
    • Wanted to add some of my R33 GTST  R34 GTR wheels, 18x9 ET30 with 255/35/R18 PS4S'   BBS RE-V7 029 18x9.5 ET22 with 255/35/R18 PS4S' Needs a bit of camber
