Seeing if people are interested!

This event was run last year by another car club and it was great. So this year my club (Northern Street Cruizers, based in Tullarmarine) have decided to hire out the DECCA course in Shepparton, VIC. and run it again.

FACTS: (These are yet to be confirmed)

Date: Looking at 06/04/03

Time: Early Morning 9-10am till 3-6pm (last year we stayed at a

motel the night b4)

Price: Approx. $50 per car

We do have liabilty insurance for the day (Definate)

EVENTS: (No particular order)

1/ Time trial - A track is present at the site, we will also include a few shikanes to make it a bit more interesting. This is not all about speed but also handling. Get from start to finish in the quickest time possible.

2/ Figure 8 - This is fun but wears your tyres out chronically

3/ DEECA have a HUGE skid pan! This will be used to host various

events.

-Slalom. Witches hats placed, and parts of course watered.

- Head to Head Slalom. As prvious only much smaller and

against another opponant. Winner progresses, looser is

eliminated.

- Finally whatever goes!! All obsticales cleared off skid pan

and you have a few minutes by youself to let go.

This is just a fun day, were you can find the limits of your car and your driving ability :) in a safe and controlled environment.

I would be in for sure. I have previously organised one in the passed and im sure Meggala will tell you was a fun day had by all.

My only concern is with the drought and water on the skidpan. I know they have their own water storage area, but Last time I was there we were limited to the amount of water on the skidpan.

Please check with decca to ensure they have enough water.

GIDDY UP!

    • I believe Unimog is the only vehicle that has it (from the manufacturer). I haven't seen aftermarket permanently connected kits, but I haven't looked either.
    • Ha ha ha, can't overthink when exhausted... Oh how I wish I had that power! I can be absolutely dead set shot, and my brain will still go "we need a good 3 or 4 hours to just think about everything and anything before you may sleep... My biggest thing is making sure I give myself enough sleep. I don't operate on even 7 hours of sleep! I attempt to give my body 9.5hours sleep a night to be able to function. I don't sleep the whole 9.5, but I need to make sure I offer a big window. I also take a single supplement, which is to help with long term health, and fighting inflammation, and I notice it helps massively. Especially me sleeping, and just less "achey" in the body. Have also kicked sugar, and gluten. A majority of people with ADHD don't go well with gluten. It causes a really interesting natural opioid overdose in the brain, which causes bodily issues and sensory issues.
    • Yeah that's what I meant, permanently connected not manual
    • Yep. But typically that's just run a hose down to the tyre while stationary.   Oh and the Unimog will automatically air up and air down tyres from the onboard computer for you too.
    • There was a good video somewhere, maybe Kurzgesagt that linked physical activity to ADHD/Anxiety/Insomnia etc. Basically the body WILL spend energy doing something if you don't spend it doing anything physical. It isn't fun, but I personally have noticed I've never been overthinky, or unable to sleep if I'm physically exhausted from doing a lot. The musings around it seem to indicate that this is one of the reasons/mechanism that physical activity improves mental health/wellbeing etc, by more or less not using that 'extra' energy to overthink, be anxious, inflammation, etc. There's also the fact that every obnoxious exerciser ever says it's great and helps which is extremely annoying. Like people who say the same thing about travel being the best thing ever. I mean, they clearly are, but blah. I started doing a LITTLE myself (think 3x15min per week) and honestly did notice the benefits, aiming at life quality when older. Which is sooner than you think. Getting something into your routine that you can actually make a routine has helped me at least. This post brought to you by procrastination between sets.
