So ur saying 14 spots, devided by 4 hours = 17 mins each? So it works out to $10 a min on the track?

[BelGarion]

your forgetting that the other 4 hours is spent on the lvma

[R32-Drifter]

LVMA? is that codeword for sitting on the grass watching?

[MJ]

Dude read the first post

Half day skidpan (4hrs)' date=' half day LVMA (cone tracks, time trials),

Thank god its on a sunday woohoo. Im keen to go ill send you a pm

[slip]

lvma is codeword for read the original thread, or the small explanation in this thread. both were mentioned in my first post that you replied to.

strutto.....ring me.....

[R32-Drifter]

MJ: Yeh did read the 1st post, and then the other post saying the other 4 hours are at the LMVA...that still doesnt tell me what an LMVA is does it? conetracks and time trials doest tell me what it is....im not having a bitch, just asking questions.

[EVO83]

can i just come and watch???

[R32-Drifter]

Oh yeh, ill read the original thred, ill just click the link you put up for me...oh no there isnt one...so in order to read your original thread, im to search the entire website just because you cant explain yourself? i dont think so.

If you want people to give you money to go somewhere with you, and they dont quite understand all the abreviations you have put in your post and telling me to read the other post, then atleast give me a link....And if you did reply to my question in the 1st post? i dont see it, and if its in ur other thread then why is it there when i asked the question here?

So! What is an LMVA? Is it a skidpan with cones that you put up to make your own track?

cus if it is, i think thats a pretty easy question to answer.

IS this your previous thread? if it is i read all 86 replys...no info on LMVA!@#

BUTTTTTTT!@#$% i dont want to get off on the wrong foot, i love what you guys are doing, and i think that maybe my typing shouldnt look so blunt and angery-ish... cus i dont mean it to be!...so for now ill keep my trap shut,....and just tell you when i have the money.

Strutto..."This is NISSAN country... On a quiet day you can hear the boost..." That quote makes me feel warm and fuzzy!

[jlnewton]

R32 Drifter - no dramas, I am also blunt.

LVMA - picture a 150m x 150m flat bitumen area. There are little bubblers on the surface that release water to make things interesting. some bits are dry, some are wet....

We set up a slalom with a diamond at the end, so its like a slalom/motorkahna hybrid. You do laps up and down that.

The whole area is covered with cones that make out a track, the slalom is used as the start of it. That is the 2nd time trial on the lvma, after the slalom.

We used to do a braking section on the other side, 1 group would do this, while the other did the slalom, then swap, then all do the big track. I will be replacing the braking session with another motorkahna style time trial this time.

The good thing about it is, theres nothing to hit but cones, so you can push the limits, and it's seriously fun, especially as a passenger. You need to use finesse, and be smooth to be fast, but you can also just go nuts, look great, but thats usually slower.
