Right you pack of sooks (yes I'm trying to push your buttons), how hard can you really drive your car? You think you can really drive? Well here's an opportunity to fly your VW colours and have a great cheap days out.

CACA car club are staging two Come and Try Motorkhanas between now and the end of the year. You DON'T need a cams licence or a helmet or a fire extinguisher. All you need is a road worthy car and a sense of adventure. THe cost is around $35 (from memory) including lunch and you race from about 10-3pm. Kids from 12 years old can enter too, so bring your teenage kids out for a day of driver training.

As I said there are TWO dates.
23rd September - Ansell Pk, Richmond NSW.
28th October - Ansell Pk, Richmond NSW.

This is a great intro to short course rallying and the emphasis is on car control rather than outright power and speed. You can drive as fast or slow as you like. The course is just flags and a flat paddock so street cars are fine as well. The only repairs you can expect afterwards is cleaning a dusty car.

You can contact the club for more details here...

I've given you all plenty of warning so there is no excuse to pike out.

Pete,

David

Can't Wait =)

BUMP

I might have a go at this... so Pete doesn't think I'm a sook :cry

Good stuff matey. :thumb

Ok, who else is up for some circle work?

P.s. I'm gonna keep harrassing you all.

I'm away in Queensland for the first one, and booked up with weddings for the second.
Otherwise, I'd be there!

me thinks you need to rebook both...

just kidding, shame though, gonna be top fun.

bump, handbrake, powerslide, bump.....

only 9 days to go, who's coming?

Where do you want to meet up so we can cruise down together?

why don't you come round to my place.

Ok everyone, I've just entered for myself, hel-toy and another mate. If you are coming you need to let me know so I can put your name in ASAP or email the club direct. These events are quite popular do to the no CAMS license setup so get in now or miss out on the fun. It's just $30 for a great day learning to drive better.

VWcool, are you still coming?

Yesterday at Eastern Ck. Another come and try motorkhana. My mate's bluebird and a beetle. The kid driving the beetle was 12 and doing a great job. Want to have a go at this on saturday? Book now or let me know ASAP!!!

I can't turn the heater off, only the fan...

But yes, I will be driving it hard.

How hard...THIS HARD!!!

Looks like fun!
I'll be having a go at one down here on sunday! I'm really looking forward to it!

can you have a passenger in the car?

than again that will probably just slow me down more

yep you can have a passenger. They just need to sign a form. If it's your girly, why don't you get her to enter as well? Do you want me to put her down too? Just give me her name. You don't get out of first gear speed isn't an issue.

BTW, Sez I'd put the top on your car to stop dust getting in. Coz if it's as bad as the last one, you'll be struggling to see otherwise. And that's without even mentioning the amount you eat. Took me months to get it out of the buggy after last time.:duh

Jo_tas;
you go girl! great to see other people getting into it as well.

my girly's gooooooone, i might bring my lil cuz keep them entertained for a day or come down with a mate or something, i'll see what happens. As for registering some one else, i dont think any one else is able to drive me car (i sort of built it to only fit me =)

Glad you told me about the roof thing, means i gota get it back on now, is it really that bad without a roof? whats the difference with dirt in your car or out side your windscreen?

man, I'm so sorry to hear about the woman. I guess Valla was the last straw eh?

naa dude, actually glad she's gone...wasnt because of valla, long story

LAST CALL!!!!! book now for the 23/9.....

or wait until October.

Absolutely last call for saturday. Email me NOW!!!

Karn, if you live in Sydney and haven't got anything on, at least come and have a look. It's right next to the RAAF base and is free to get in. It's at Ansell Pk, Richmond. Go toward the airbase and turn right just as you see the airstrip lights, before you go up the hill alongside the run way. If you can see planes you've gone to far.

Turned out to be an awesom day, heres a couple pics;

me

im somewhere there, look harder

And a MASSIVE THANKS to Greg and son for going home and coming back with parts for my front drum :beer

a better one of Sez all crossed up.

There is a many a tail to be told about the day. All the dirt on Sez will come later...no pun intended.

Looks hilarious! Hope you have good air filters!
