I'm there - got a few of the msport guys coming with me as well. We've got a party the night before so MAY be slightly hungover... But we'll never pass up an excuse to rip round a paddock :D

Well, it impressed me. I'm not sure how you are going to top that next time.. :)

I'm sure it made a difference (or didn't, as Captain Coker pointed out because he bet you for once) on a completely wet muddy surface...
All I seemed to do was clear a path for everyone with those dodgy tyres of mine... :wink:

And yeah... that Autocross was cancelled. Because it was too wet. Even though it was sunny on Sunday..

However, Motorsport weekend is 10-11 June, consisting of Autocross followed by Motorkhana at Ruapuna (the Autocross track is going to be something quite interesting according to the organiser), then a Car Trial at night, followed by the Circuit Sprint Speed event on Sunday.

4 Event Competition, but you don't have to enter every event to have a go. Come watch (or even compete)

PS DRFTIN, I expect that wing on each car you use over the weekend :wink:

what style is the Sunday speed event going to be??

we have a sprint/autocross at Levels on Saturday, curious to know whether i should try to budget have a play on Sunday as well :?:
I've been a bad bad boy. I should read the rules and behave before I get spanked by an admin

f#@k you i won't do what ya tell me

Our normal Circuit Sprint Speed Day event... (if you've seen one)

Weather permitting, normally 4 different track layouts (normally Full GP Circuit, Old Ruapuna Circuit, Club Circuit twice - with and without dipper), with 2 runs at each, being a indian file (warm up lap), a standing lap, a flying lap, then a warm down lap.

You race overall, and also against your class. However the groups you race against are mixed. You race 2 at a time, with the next 2 starting 8-10 seconds after the previous 2.

Ends up being 24 laps, with prizegiving and a few beers afterwards. Should be a good turnout being CCC's motorsport weekend and all.

i dont think it will survive an autocross...
the front is now held in by 1 screw, which it cable tied/tied on with string to the side window opener
the rear is bolted through the standard plastic spoiler that is half broken

but we'll see what i can do :P
