Wet Concrete Motorkhana Nov 7 (Gympie)
|
Mon, 30 August 2004 09:05

|
I'm looking at getting a few of us together to take a trip up to Gympie for the Cooloola Car Club's next Motorkhana. It is held at the Roadcraft Skidpan just south of Gympie. Entry cost is just $20.00 per driver (spectators free) for a maximum of 50-55 entrants. Classes include 4 cyl, 6 cyl, 8 cyl, ladies, FWD and 4WD. Trophies for 1st, 2nd and 3rd in each class.
Chaos, Myself and a few others from the Toyota Car Club of Oz (Qld) and some Gemini club guys and gals went to the last one on the 22nd of Aug and had a blast. The ST165 performed f@#%ing brilliantly. It was the quickest on the day, but my only other 4WD competition was like Suzuki Sierras and shit so it wasn't exactly a fair match.
If we get enough people interested we might be able to organise a round for ourselves as the CCC 'khana days are usually fully booked out in advance. Let me know if you're interested and also give Katrina from the Cooloola Car Club a call on 5483 6413 if you want to compete.

Motorkhanas are timed courses through a series of witches hats. Only m'khanas will be run on the day.

Not sure but will find out. They just recommend that you book ASAP to get a place, however last tme I didn't book but got a spot on the day, maybe just lucky I guess. Its a long way to travel if you dont book ahead though.
PS I hope I worked this f@#$ing quote thing right. I must be too old for this technology stuff

you'll have to contact the organisers asap if you want to compete.
ring Katrina on 5483 6413 or 0422 302633 from the Cooloola Car Club to get an entry form sent/faxed to you.
it would be cool if there's another supra there - otherwise it'll just be me and wilbo in the 6cyl class from TCCQ/Toymods.

just a reminder folks that places are filling up - you should check with the organisers to see if spaces are still available - you wont be able to rock up on the day and pay to compete.
see previous threads for contact details.
