Mikha1 Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Why aren't these new insurance changes communicated in the first post? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/448247-saunsw-texikhana-26th-october/page/3/#findComment-7400697 Share on other sites More sharing options...
crashdown Posted October 2, 2014 Author Share Posted October 2, 2014 To confirm the changes, I am quite concerned actually, as all I have been doing over the last two texi events were skids and linking corners. How strict will these rules apply to suppress ‘induced power sliding’? Sliding the rear end of the car around the cones, is acceptable. If it turns into drifting or burnouts then it become not acceptable. As Duncan said, the rules are just a clarification of a motorkhana event. Insurance has asked us to reinforce those rules. The first post will be modified with the changes.

hy_rpm Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Yeah it's not that easy to follow all the cones and course at speed Sometimes it gets abit out of control and you end up spinning and frustrated and smoke it up alil If that's not on might have to cancel How strict are you's on it 3 warnings and no more or just get told to take it easy Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/448247-saunsw-texikhana-26th-october/page/3/#findComment-7400784 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pezhead Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Smoking the tyres to get to the next gate quickly is fine. Smoke until you can't see your car, not ok. We can only run these events while we are insured by AASA. We don't make these rules, they do. If you are clearly breaking the rules we will give you a couple of warnings. If the clerk of course feels that you've been warned and continue they we can ask you to leave. It is all about us keeping our insurance rating so we can continue to hold these events.

The Bogan Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 Fingers crossed, the motorsport gods have been angry and thus I have not had any car fun lately, if all goes well and the stars align I shall be there with bells on. And its OK for the skids from this end as the MX5 cannot do epic helis. 1 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/448247-saunsw-texikhana-26th-october/page/3/#findComment-7401785 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pezhead Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 Good on ya Mark. MX5's do well at Texi's. The short wheel base, light and decent power makes excellent skid pan quick ness.

Daleo Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 ^^^What Eric says. MX-5's do a fantastic job at this event; good car control and a level head is the way to win. A texi is a technical car challenge, using your memory, an intimate understanding of your car's strengths and weaknesses. Any idiot can chuck a mad skid (see any episode of ACA for further details), only a talented DRIVER can master the texi. No one is saying that you have to drive like Miss Daisy, but if we don't respect the rules of the event, all we'll have is stationary carpark events. How hard will people whinge if that happens?

Pezhead Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 If you are just renewing cams they get them out quickly. I did mine last week and got the new sticker this week. But don't wait too long, no current sticker to verify then we can't let your enter. Sux but that's dam insurance rules again. 1 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/448247-saunsw-texikhana-26th-october/page/3/#findComment-7405179 Share on other sites More sharing options...

RANDY Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Bum. With such an attractive car in the first post to really show the style and finesse of the event it's hard to say no, but alas i'm working the nightshift before and after the event =-/ Might be the first one in 2-3 years that I miss?
