Aaaaaaaand here we go again.

Event: Texikhana

Date: Sunday 14 September

Cost: $100 per member, $115 per non member. Cars can be double entered with 2 drivers.
You will also need a CAMS or AASA licence. AASA licences cost $50 on the day, last for a year and can be used at Wakefield. Direct deposit or Paypal/Credit Card accepted.

Venue: Sutton Road Driver Training Centre, Canberra

Format: Part 1; Sutton Road have a back track which is shaped like a racetrack but is more like the Old Pacific Hwy or National Park Road. We use cones set up as gates to keep the speeds down and things safe.
Part 2; We will be using the wet skid pan again as Sutton Road are being harsh on our use of the big dry one. We will have several different layouts on the skid pan to make it challenging. It's more difficult than it looks and great fun.

Restrictions: Street registered cars only with proper exhausts. That means no straight through pipes or screamers.
Limit of 40 cars so everyone gets plenty of time out there.

What should you bring: A roadworthy car not leaking anything, a helmet for the back track, long sleeves and pants, covered shoes, sunscreen, a hat and most importantly, a good attitude.

Plan of attack: Most people will go down the night before and stay at Eaglehawk Holiday Park. We will start a separate thread for this. There is a pub next door and everyone will go there for dinner and drinks. Next morning we get up early and get to the venue. Cars are scruitineered then we have a driver's briefing. After this we split into two groups sending one to the skid pan and one to the back track. After Group 1 gets two runs each of the back track the groups swap and repeat. Lunch then repeat the morning with a different course on the skid pan. We usually run two courses in both directions on the skid pan.

Might be an idea if we invite the local Supra club as well? As they had there own little mini event recently, and a few skylines rocked up for that.

By roadworthy we just mean registered basically. We got into a bit of trouble last time for sounds violations that we didn't know were in place, we're just trying to dodge that bullet. smile.gif

We had a few cars that had straight pipes, or screamers, or side pipes... sounded great! biggrin.gif but it was too loud tongue.gif

Pod will be fine smile.gif

Also, beginners are actually encouraged to come to these events cause it is all very safe, very controlled, and there will be lots of help on the day if you want to learn more smile.gif
