Arrow FREE Motorkhana day

Yep, free.

To aid in attracting new people to the sport of motorkhana, all costs for this event will be bankrolled by the Mini Car Club! This includes the usual entry fee ($25 for adults) AND the cost of the appropriate one-day Level 1 CAMS licence if you don't already have a full yearly one (ie L2NS or above).
Basically you are paying for the fuel you use. Can't ask much more than that.

The even will be held on Sunday February 27th at the Tiger Kart Club skid pans, next to Barbagallo Raceway. It's a 'Come and Try / Beginner's Motorkhana' day with multiple courses set up. Imagine an RAC skid pan… but longer, wider and with two tests set up instead of one.

The tests used are aimed to have as little impact as possible on the drive train.
You can use handbrake if you want; you can get by if you don't. Same goes for reversing.
You don't need long sleeves, helmets, fire extinguishers etc. You can turn up in a bunky. If it stops and steers, you can run it.

I'll have a couple of GoPro cameras there to film people / stick on your car to capture your runs and skids.

Supp regs, entry forms and more info is available at
http://people.aapt.net.au/~dselliott/motorkhana.htm

You can rock up and enter on the day if you want. But to save some time and effort, it's recommended that you print of an entry form and fill it out before hand.

See ya there!
Alex

Wow brilliant!

If I don't break anything, I might have to come down and see what I can stuff up.

Hey Alex,

The hail damaged GC8 that crapped itself on the Come and Try Rally day will be there with a vengeance. It's had a v5 STi upgrade and I also just picked up the sticky Yoko's yesterday that Gav was selling. I used to be in the mini ca club a verrrrrry long time ago, it'll be fun to catch up with some of the old guys...
