hey dudes and dudettes. theres a skid comp on next weekend (the 19th). should b good, i believe its $10 spectator fee, $30 entry fee for you and a car. skids start at 12 so bring some rubber and leave it there

. theres always a good turnout of cars and people so will b a good afternoon of fun. also there are a few stalls, such as etchellz race parts, mad sounds etc and a small car show area.

brought to you by the simply sideways crew.

last one i went to run by those guys was awesome.
huge pad, wicked action

by **YeMs** » Mon Aug 14, 2006 9:32 pm

yeh the pad is huge. heaps of tiered seating, a show area with some tidy cars, food and car parts stalls.. and a whole heap of smoke.

how bout one in wellies!

Be so sick....

by **l1ttle_d3vil** » Mon Aug 14, 2006 10:41 pm

what are the legal requirements for running one of these?

ambo's / fire have to be on standby? or just some people with fire extinguishers etc there? and I suppose it can't be too close to any public roads so that people can still see where their driving.

Its opposite a 4 lane exspressway..... :lol:

by **YeMs** » Tue Aug 15, 2006 7:07 pm

to be quite honest i dont know the indepth details. but we do have a fire..man on site, and he gives us a crash course on if theres a fire what to do etc. but i mean, its run so smoothely we havent really had many issues. the cars are given a safety check b4 the event. we also have a DB metre, and if it gets to loud we sound the horn and they have to leave the pad. we have reasonable sound protection being behind a grandstand and all.

yes and the place im considering holding one is about 10 metres from a public road...

by **YeMs** » Wed Aug 16, 2006 8:34 pm

yeh i get what ur saying. i guess there would b certain factors involved. but by the time the smoke has passed around/over the stadium its really thinned out so doesnt really affect traffic. u will however have huge problems trying to get your local pain in the ass/complain about every thing/grey haired old biddys to see eye to eye with you. as far as they are concerned any noise is bad noise.

there is this old dude that lives in otumoetai and he rings the bluechip office and says he can hear the tyres skidding from his place.. lol.. like 20/30ks away

haha what a fool. may have to have a look around at some other options.

is there much point entering with a single spinner? are locked diffs allowed in comps etc?

by **scope** » Thu Aug 17, 2006 10:16 am

half of the cars i've seen at burnout comps have locked diffs. all the old starlets and corollas etc. that's where the fun is

yeh lock diffs shouldnt b a problem. not much point entering with a single spinner lol..

the scruitineering is usually to ensure that like the $&#$% engine isnt gunna jump out or sumthin stupid.

by **YeMs** » Fri Aug 18, 2006 10:36 pm

its on tomorrow, hope all are turning up that can.. support an event to get the 'hoons' of the street and legal skids.

by **YeMs** » Sat Aug 19, 2006 8:41 pm

id just like to personally thank all the ladies and fellas that turned up in support. it was a huge meet with some awesome machines on show doin what they do best. i feel sorry for the poor fella in the rx2 who totalled the rear end of it.. but i guess u know the risks wen u enter, such a shame to see such a fine piece of work damaged like that.

all in all was a huge succes, lots of rubber left on the pad. and for all who dont kno, i was 'craig david' beside the dj on the rear trailer. shame..

oh yeh and huge credit to the dudes in the blue evo5 and red st205 GT4 swinging the mad helli's. very impressive.

haha i think it will take abit more than no time. swing a full O sideways into a barrier. looks like hes twisted the whole rear end of the car. smashed in the drivers side rear gaurd, popped the boot out, bent the rear bumper.. who knows wat else. hit the water barrier bloody hard. we watched the video over about 6 times. like on the simpsons.. we could almost pinpoint wen his heart broke.

I'm reminded of Dragmasters, with the V (I think?) Cef' which tried to to a burnout on the burnout pad. Lots of smoke, but the wheels weren't spinning... Hehe

yeh man hard out. i actually couldnt believe he was putting it in the comp.. usually wen u see a prang like that u expect to see bog pop out, be it small or large u usually expect to see a small amount. it had none at all. but yeh hope he can get it sorted as it is a very sexy lookin rx. love the centre caps on the mags to.. dunno bout the chromes tho.

by **NOLAW** » Sun Aug 20, 2006 6:21 pm

yeh i think he likes his skids tho hah, he built that from the ground up prety much, spent alot of money and time on the paneling alone, i actualy dont think there is any bog in that car at all, lets just hope he can get it back to as straight as what it was
