Levin Paddock, Autocross April 30th - now with pictures

Postby Leon » Thu Mar 30, 2006 12:58 pm

Harbour Capital Car Club invites you to play in the paddock!

Donnelly Park, Levin.
Left at second set of traffic lights in Levin, then keep on keeping on until the road narrows dramatically, and you see Adkin Ave in your left (also Donnelly Park sign). Donnelly park is on the right hand side of Adkin Ave, and you will see us in the paddock past the playing fields.

Required:
Motorsport NZ Car Club Membership
$20
Helmet and overalls (check with me if this is your first event)
The willingness to chuck your car around a paddock and have a lot of fun.

No rally, or mud and snow tires allowed, to respect the venue.

All playing to be done within the confines of the paddock. Absolutely no silly buggers will be tolerated outside the venue. We will call the police, and we will make sure anyone doing anything stupid outside the venue is talking to a member of the law enforcement community. It hasn't happened yet, but it only takes the once for us to lose the venue and the help of the Levin council :)

The venue is fairly road car friendly, but be prepared for some bumps and bouncing.

Awesome way to learn some car control, and dip your toes in the water. Friendly atmosphere, and drive as fast or as slow as you want.

Correct. Much autocrossing, nothing else. The previous one you came to was a combined competitor coaching event. This is just hoon in paddock.

So going through check list for this weekend people looks like i will be there in the datsun after spending some time doing some panel beating yeasterday, now the only guard that was straight, also the only straight panel on the car has been straightened and now fits in nicely with the rest of the vehicle :).
This time i think i will take it off the a frame at the end of the drive and turn it round under it's own power, safer that way less damage to panels etc, strainer posts don't tend to give to well.
