lightmaster240z Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 Sound like fun to me. My customer are pushing me to join up with gippsland car club seeing just up the road. ;D ;D Quote
C.A.R. Posted November 7, 2008 Posted November 7, 2008 Just to throw another idea in, IMHO it'd be good to throw in a Motorkhana into the mix just to see who really has the 'skillz br0' Quote
Glen Posted November 7, 2008 Posted November 7, 2008 Never have been a fan of Motorkhana's as i think its just to much wear and tear on the car as a whole. But that wouldnt stop me from watching someone else trashing i mean thrashing there car Quote
C.A.R. Posted November 7, 2008 Posted November 7, 2008 As opposed to circuit sprints? Care to explain, mate? Quote
Glen Posted November 7, 2008 Posted November 7, 2008 Im not knocking your idea i just dont think Motorkhana's are all that great for cars in general imho. Unless i am mistaken isnt it where you drive madly around cones? Anyway thats just me..... Quote
zed240au Posted November 7, 2008 Posted November 7, 2008 Well i really enjoy motorkhanas myself and there really are some fun and quick ones to choose from lot more skill to it than it looks too can give good balance to outright speed events make it more a skill vs outright speed thing mick Quote
luvemfast Posted November 8, 2008 Posted November 8, 2008 I'm up for a motorkahana. They're fun, and great to watch. They don't seem to run them anymore in NDSOC cause everyone has turned into big girls and afraid to wear out their cars. As opposed to circuit sprints? Care to explain, mate? I agree with Lurch on this one. Its the same deal as any kind of motorsport, drive as hard and fast as you are comfortable with. For me, tyre fry'in sounds like fun. I've already busted a CV adaptor at a hillclimb. Doesn't matter, build new ones that are stronger. Crisis over. Just my 2 cents worth....... Quote
zr240 Posted November 17, 2008 Author Posted November 17, 2008 OK so I am back and ready to get stuck into some zed stuff So I thought we would have our first discussion on Thursday at the BBQ. If you cannot make it put a post up here and I will print and take to the meeting for discussion. I dont think any of the club calendars have come out yet but we can just run through the rules/ class and what type of events to include. Ash Quote
Glen Posted November 17, 2008 Posted November 17, 2008 Sounds good ash, Any rules/class doesnt bother me. Although im not active at your club meetings put me down for a definate. Quote
zr240 Posted November 17, 2008 Author Posted November 17, 2008 Thanks glen will put you down. Hopfully I can beat you on the the real track and you dont blow me away like you do online racing Ash Quote
Glen Posted November 17, 2008 Posted November 17, 2008 haha im sure you will do that no worries Quote
620Z Posted November 17, 2008 Posted November 17, 2008 Off the topic a bit. Glen I didn't see your name down for our BBQ/Photo shoot. Are you able to come up? I would love to check out your car. Quote
Glen Posted November 17, 2008 Posted November 17, 2008 it is down craig but im unsure as my car might not be ready, if it is i shall be there. Quote
620Z Posted November 17, 2008 Posted November 17, 2008 Would be good if you can. I haven't seen your car before. But it sounds like it will be out and about next year. Quote
C.A.R. Posted November 18, 2008 Posted November 18, 2008 Yes you have Craig... Glen = MoonstoneblueZed. He came with us on the P.I. run... Quote
620Z Posted November 18, 2008 Posted November 18, 2008 Ah your right Lurch. I am looking at the avitar and I just didn't recognise it. Quote
Glen Posted November 18, 2008 Posted November 18, 2008 added stripes and painted the wheels lowered the rear end and yer, changed my forum name to Quote
zr240 Posted November 19, 2008 Author Posted November 19, 2008 Just a quick one about motakanas can you run full race cars in them eg slicks? Ash Quote
C.A.R. Posted November 19, 2008 Posted November 19, 2008 Yes, I believe so. Remember, driving skill is more of an advantage in a motorkhana than how heavily one's car is modified Quote

Bruce Posted December 18, 2009 Posted December 18, 2009 thought I would revive this topic from last year to see if there was any interest in doing something similiar in 2010? I have had a look on the PIARC website, there doesn't appear to be a 2010 calendar up as yet, but once it appears I'll put up the events to guage interest. cheers Bruce Quote
zr240 Posted December 18, 2009 Author Posted December 18, 2009 Yer bruce I got a bit too busy with the gokart this year but would be up for trying to get it going again. Ash Quote
