Title: Werribee Motorkhana, Gilman’s Reserve (Sun, Sept 5)
Post by: Brad M on July 18, 2010, 07:06:00 PM
This will be dirt Motorkhana, so come along and have a ball, BBQ on the day entry is free to all AROCA members, and The Fiat club will also be coming along.  As with all Motorkhanas this is a great opportunity to bring along your soon to be driving juniors for some safe car control lessons with experienced instructors on hand to offer advice, entry is open to all members 12 and over.

For information contact Anthony membership@alfaclubvic.org.au

Hi Brad, Wondering if you could advise approximate times for the day's events? I need to work this in around other commitments. Thanks!

Thanks Brad...all booked in with she who must be obeyed. Looking forward to it!

However...

Weather looking crap, judging by the 7-day forecast. I remember Anthony saying at the last club meeting that rain would likely mean postponement.

What is the plan for advising participants if rain close to the weekend leaves the track too muddy? (my car is going in for servicing on Friday, and if we know it is a washout, I've leave it there over the weekend)

Thanks
Torben

Does the handbrake on a 33 work the front wheels or rear?  I could go and look but it's dark outside. :-[

I'll take a poorly educated guess and say the rear, from the look of this?

I will be expecting a much similar performance should you bring your 33.

Handbrake is on the rear, with drums.

I'll be there then.  Gina's decided she wants to get a boring car, so that 33 is going to die an elegant yet brutal death at my hands over the next few years.  I think I'll use it as a towcar for Ironsides/spare racecar.

No room in the AROCA Calendar that coincides with the venue, next Motorkhana event will be in 2011.
