[Interloper]

can we get these $40 Level 2 Non Speed licences on the day?

99% down

[Starionturbo]

why do these things always have to be so far away from home. I do wish it was cheaper, Id love to attend, however though living by urself and paying lotsa rent + having a skyline = dont have $$$ to throw round

Parents are moving back to Vic So When I move back home Ill have more $$$ to get involved in more motorsports and further modifying my car.

[Roy]

LOL...this is a cheap day:)

As always..if trhe car is running ill be there punishing it:) Ill put my entry in after Sandown.

[Darkside]

Entry is in. I am there!!! Another weekend of Team Wang shenanigans!!! Look out Shepparton!!!! Let me know on the accomodation arrangements. Keen to be apart of another superb Bec effort. You know you are on a good thing when the room you are sleeping in costs you less than the pub price parma you eat for dinner

[Snowman]

Got your entry Blaise. Started to engrave your name on the trophey's already.

Speaking of - we will have trophies for best 4wd and best 2wd so you GTS-T guys can compete against each other.

It seems so far all the entries received are from WRX Club members so if you SAU guys want to come I wouldn't dally. It will be limmited to the 1st 50 entries.

By Interloper

Interloper and others please PM Snowman with some personal details and he will get the license sorted for you.

Starionturbo - It had to be far away because DECA have the biggest skidpan in VIC and team wang love their weekends away!

[Snowman]

Guys, all CAMS licenses can be done on the day. All that is needed to get one is a credit-card number.

But we do need the payment for the event before that time. Also - confirmation of entry will only be accepted when I receive the fax or entry in the mail. Posting on here won't be sufficient.

And we are already 25% full in only the 1st morning that entries have started to come in.

/me has a phobia of little orange things that get stuck under the car.

also never done handies, so dunno how good id be with motokhana event. love to try, but going to make a huge fool of meself.

also dont have any spare rims to punish tyres. might need to look into that.

[Snowman]

The witches hats being lent to us by the WRX Club are the soft style ones - so IF you do hit one they won't cause any damage.

Also DECA is mostly about learning and having fun. Heaps of people will be there just skidding around and enjoying themselves rather than trying to go fast. You dont need any special skills or any special car to enjoy this kind of event. Its just fun.

[GTRgeoff]

Don't know if I should bring the Lynx or the R

[funkymonkey]

IN, along with 2 other members, forms and deposits will be in by tomorrow.

Not really that scared about cones. Just flash back to embarrising experience at defensive driving course, where i couldnt even see the cones behind the car, and was suppose reverse around the things. just got caught up under the car/tyres.

Sounds like a lot of fun. I am keen to do this. Right now just running numbers in my head, as i have a lot of expenses this month, car rego, plus other large bills.

Looking at last years pictures, forget whose, where they are just dropping a huge ass burnout, and suggesting bringing different rubber. Was looking to get some bald tyres fitted to some spare rims, but having looked at regulations, require the tyres to be road worthy.

Hmm. Tyres are nearing worn, and dont want to punish them AND have to drive back to melbourne. Just going to add more bills

oh well, just post poning inevitable. just a shame all my bills coming this time of year. I will look at pulling the money from somewhere. Too many good things to miss out on, that im sure ill would regret if skipping (outside of club too).

[Scotsman]

Yeah this event will be one to remember, and if you can make it, you should. It will be some of the best fun you'll have driving your car, .....even if you come last. I'm putting together an Event Schedule with little maps of all the motorkhana's now and i'm getting excited just looking at them.
