13th August 2006: Trax and Gymkhana

According to the Zwartkops calendar (http://www.zwartkops.co.za/cal.htm), they are having an open track and skid pan day on 13th August 2006. I am keen on taking my SX onto the track this time! Anyone else wanna join in?

I could be there no problems. Car is in no condition to hit the skidpan unfortunately.

can we make a event that consists of putting in my other engine? haha kidding 😉

Sounds great, I don't want to make promises but I would like to be there, if things work out..... 🙄

Yes Toby, I am in. What do we need? Helmet and?

Whoops, I must apologise - I won't be able to make this 'cos I'm away for this coming weekend.

For those interested - all you need is a helmet and wear a long-sleeve top (which shouldn't be a problem in this weather). Just remember to check your oil and cooling system thoroughly, check brakes and brake fluid, check tyres, etc. Here's some recommended reading: http://www.wikihow.com/Race-Your-Car

For the guys going there - have fun! I will join you next time.

So are some of us going to meet on sunday 13 aug or not? Who's in

Not sure if I'll have my car back by sunday. So I dont think so

I am in. Even if i cant participate, I will be there.

At what time does it start? And where are u meeting?

Derek suggests 0900 in the morning at Zwartkop Raceway.

If all goes well i will see some of you at swartkops. I will phone freddy to find out where next to the track you are parked.

It was great. Thanks Gremlin and Derek. So we met a new sx owner. His name is Joe from Montana. White sx. According to him t3/t4 turbo ball bearing mounted on std manifold????

Thanks George(Gremlin) and Freddy, it was great to meet with you guys again. I must give gremlin a spesial thanks, I went with him on the skidpan, what an adrenilin rush, once he got the launch right he kicked ass!!!!

thanx to freddy for attending and to derek for the support on the skid pan. That was the most fun I have had with a sx.

Sorry I missed it! Would've loved to be there, even though the jacuzzi I was in at the time seemed quite nice too 😂

Jacuzzi is one thing, seeing an sx kick but in full force is something totally different!!!!! 😈

I have posted a Mpeg 4 file on the mailing list for all to view. Gremlin in action with his Nissan 200sx. 🙂

Derek and George
