Australian Motorkhana Championship – Perth, October 1 2011
 

This year Perth is hosting the Australian Motorkhana Championship. It only comes here every 5-6 years, so this is a great opportunity to compete at a national level. It's probably the only national motorsport event where you can compete successfully in an unmodified road car.

It will be held at RAC Driving Centre, near the airport.

There will be trophies for first in class, first outright, and handy-capped outright. There will also be trophies for [B]highest placed car from each marque[/B]. A marque in this case is basically a team of same or similar cars (up to 4 of them), in our case, it'd be WRXs. So you could have "Team Hardparked" (e.g. Joe, Tino, Brent etc), "Team Handbrake!!" (Doug, Jesterifhehasacar, John.but.not.in.the.evo, hopefullyme) etc etc. Everyone is encouraged to enter!

At only $70 ($35 under 18) the 2011 AMC will be the cheapest national championship you’ll ever enter.

There is an opportunity to practice/fang around at the next two state events:
• August 21 – state motorkhana rnd 4
• September 18 – come ‘n’ try practice day

[B]You will get a practice on the Saturday, Oct 1 from 12:30 to 4pm.
Then the Sunday morning is the event - all day.[/B]

You can ask questions by phoning a real, live human being on 9299 6072! How cool.

I'm at work for every single one of those dates.

FML!

Quite keen on this, really enjoyed my last outting at a private Motorkhana event for a mates birthday shindig. Great variety of cars. This is Definately attracting my interests. Looks like it would be a great day!

Alex, when will the entry forms for the August one be up? Currently still have Julys one up.

It's at RAC and is a good chance to practice for the Aussie championship, especially since it's at the same location.
Round 4 is only competitive if you're competing in each round as you'd be going for WA Championship position, like me. But everyone else has no excuse not to get out there and find the limits of your car (and your ability) in a relaxed way without the fear that getting it wrong could cost you big time in a championship.
