lost the old thread but here's a quick report. The motorkhana was run by CACA at Ansell pk in richmond. Hot day but top fun. Myself and another forum member, Andrewh, both entered. Don't think I did very well but it was top fun. Here's the pics,

Me dissappearing in my own dust. By the end of the day this was real issue. I had to slow down in the last two rounds because I couldn't see where I was going.
All in all it was a good day though, Zak got washed down in a thunderstorm onthe way home.
CACA is running another similar event in a few months time. I will post the details when the event get closer. You just need a registerd car and $50. Lot's of fun, low risk and all about car control, and you get to practice your handbrake turns! :thumb

Absolutely fantastic day. If you've never done this, don't miss the next one.

I thought my car did okay given it was probably one of the lowest powered and worst prepared.

I really can't wait to go again.
