is there an IPRA event this weekend? I'm interested in having a look

[takai]

Yup, the state series kicks off this weekend with a one dayer twilight event on Saturday.
Should be a good one, pity i cant go.

[RobertoX]

Oh thats a shame, is the car not running at the moment?

What time do the twilight events start at?

[takai]

Nah, i havnt had a chance to fix the car yet. Probably has something to do with buying a house and not having a garage to put stuff in yet.
It will probably all start around midday and then run until 9pm or so.

yeah had engine trouble on friday practice thought it was the box at first, but was motor, think my overheating problem and a problem with my oil cooler was the culprit. other than that it went hard as lots of fun, should be good when sorted. there was some awsome racing.

Felt bad for Adam Wallis in the last Sports (aka Porsche) race, had a massive lead before a safety car to rescue a car from the sand trap, then lost it on cold tyres on the first corner of the restart, dropped to dead last in a heart beat. Entertaining watching 8 or so Porsches trying desperately to avoid him...

are there any events that people can enter with their road cars? ie, no roll cages or slicks or big power, just a normal car to race against the clock or something? ive done a bit of a search but came up with nothing if anyone could point me in the right direction thatd be sweet!

[ToDa30/4]

Gbanger that would be the regularity that Jez posted m8 ,PM him i reckon

[jazae86]

Modern regularity is about road cars out test one's own skill level.

My quickest time to date is 1:32.5 (with NA 16v Sprinter) and I'm on the hunt for the big cube guy's.

have a look at http://www.natsoft.com.au/cgi-bin/re...7/05/2007.MALL to see the mix of cars....yes I was quicker than an EVO 9 look at the results but maybe not as consistant which will come with time. If you don't push the limit how do you know where it is?

good effort man. i read something on the site about needing a specific cams license. can this be issued on the day? wot are the costs involved in this? also, i couldnt find any specifics on the requirements of the car, obviously it would need to be in good mechanical condition, but what else would you need? sofar i could thingk of; fire extinguisher, batery location sticker and tow hook location sticker. any thing else major that im missing?

also, how often do people from on here go to these sort of events? Ive never driven on a track before and would love to be able to have someone who knows a bit about what they are doing to give me some pointers out there.
