I don't drive them competitively; I drive my rex.
But I've given them a spin a couple of times. Literally. "Oh wow is that how sensitive the rear is? Oh and is that how little power you need to make it spin around?" [pondering to myself while in my own cloud of smoke].
All of the ones I've seen compete in the State series are around the early-to-mid 90's era, and there was a supercharged one at the last State round! I think it was a bit more recent than those others. I'm sure that one'll play at the Nats too.

An official video of the event is up, as well as a motorkhana promo vid.

youtube.com/fafmotorsport

If you'd like, please go to the channel linked just above to view the vids. If you want, subscribe to keep up-to-date with stuff I film, such as Perth-WRX skid pan days etc etc! Much appreciated. I hope this vid inspires you to get out there

Oh and please post these on any other forums/Facebook etc if there are people on there who may enjoy watching these vids or might want to get into some of the cheapest motorsport you can do!
