MCCNSW has a motorkhana this weekend at Riverstone (see the website). Come and join the club on the day if you have to. I'm sure we could arrange a temporary CAMS licence for those that don't have one yet (again check the website for details and don't quote me on that) Cheapest motorsport you can get for the money.

The drive days for 2LS are great, but you get official timing at the supersprint so you can see how fast you are really going :D I had a blast at the last supersprint until i ran out of fuel :( doh

Mr Cooms Bring any roadworthy car - it does not have to be a fast one.....i know guys that buy a barely registered but roadworthy car for $200, take it to an event use it until it expires, and just leave it there :!:

68Delux how much is your head worth?????? seriously anywhere from $100 through to $1000s for replica F1 stuff :shock: All helmets MUST have AS1698 sticker on them. Do not buy a second hand helmet ever - you just don't know what it has had done to it.

Wakefield 2LS drive days are the cheapest no limit tarmac you can get in NSW. This EC fang evening looks good, but if you go in your mini, remember you WILL get passed down the straight by all the ricers in their skyline GTRs, and i think they might not obey the no overtaking on the rest of the circuit.

Just go mid week like us MDC dudes do.. less ricers... :wink:

BTW no need for 2LS there- just get a Wakefield Pk licence.. $40 good for 12 months.

Helmets? I just run a motorbike one.. and at Wakefield there's bugger all to hit (except pit apron at start of main straight!) :wink:

No James, use any helmet to AS1698, which includes open m/bike ones. :wink:

Nice, i get real claustraphobic (Sp?) in a full-face "race" one....
(Also while under the car, but thats another story..)

this feels so much free-er and comfortable.... just got to remember not to smile while riding.... bugs in the teeth, you know.... :?

Open face is fine in a car if you will not hit anything with your face or vice versa :D ....but....

I highsided off my RZ250 doing about 10km/h out of a round about and landed on my face. Went down the road about 10m on just my face and palms before the rest of my body contacted. If i did not have a full face helmet on, i would not have a face now. It might not be the best lookin one around, but i like it where it is. I felt that the helmet did such a good job, i bought another one the same model. One happy customer :D

my 2c
