Vmc Motorkhana - Sun 20 July - Somerton

[TTCorona]

Morning all

A few of the SAU boys & girl cruised out to somerton for the VMC motorkhana yesterday.

After getting there and seeing how tight and confusing the maps looked, i nearly gave up and went home

but it turned out to be a really fun event.

For my first ever motorkhana, i had a ball...

They were a very freindly bunch which made it good as well...

there was a bit of confusion with how the day was run, perhaps a schedule would be handy.

Good work otherwise by the organisers

Thanks to Bec for comming out and filming

P.S. There are actually little flags on sticks that we are driving around... they are hard to see on my high quaility copy of these vids,

so if yout look hard enough you may be able to see them.

Huge thanks to MUCC for putting on the day it was tops...

The "tests" were i would say tight i dont think i have thrown my car around like that for a while and had a BALL doing it...

Champ effort to scott for his directions in the morning and crossie for taking over

For $30 you cant go too far wrong.

Those vids look pretty funny not being able to see the flags on sticks. i had a hard enough time trying to see them in real life... especially in reverse

Overall it was a pretty fun day, although it could have been organised a bit better.. there was some incredibly random and piss funny cars entered with the biggest characters driving them which made for some entertainment...

Bec, thanks for filming.

Keep an eye out for a Skyline freindly version in the future...

damn, looked out of the window early on Sunday and decided it was going to be too wet... which was really just an excuse to roll over and go back to sleep... which clearly was a mistake cos that looked like fun!

nice videos, pity about not seeing the flags but you still get the idea

Oh well at least if I was in bed I couldn't break my car again

[Roy]

So how did the times compare to the crazy old guys in their crazy khana cars?

[Belsil80]

based on some of the results i have seen we would beat them at deca on our maps. thats all that counts. the 'specials' were always quicker, but i thought they would have been quicker given that is all they are good for.

Looks like a VERY small course.

[AGE]

Wait till the Grass Motorkhana coming up!!!

[SABBAi]

That has got to be some of the greatest fun for $30!

Glad I got roped into joining in the fun. It was a lot of fun and a great laugh! The MUCC guys were very friendly, with many coming up to great us 'New comers'.

There was definantly some wild looking rides there, some look very professional with others looking like a washing machine welded to a frame made from a few bits of metal joined together by dropping it onto the other one from a great height, with an engine bolted to it.

Hanging out to see the results

[Adz]

That looks like heaps of fun.

Good work boys. Have you got results?

Good to see Scotsman going hard and that a little bundle of joy hasnt slowed him down at all.

[TTCorona]

Results are here....

Good work to scotty, fair way up the table...

Interesting the mighty sexpo GTR being beaten in its class by a standard EF Falcon

^^^ Maybe the Bundle of joy has slowed him.... ^^^

And I beat Frysie!! Whoohoo...

thanks to his lack of direction, but a win is a win

Anyhoo

Enjoy
