eoi: skid pan day at ahg around July-Aug

[thnk_again]

hey guys,
i live in karratha but i leave my car in perth last time i went to drive it in perth it was a complete failure.... blowing up boxes and what not. so I'm going to try again.
i want to drum up some numbers and see if i can get enough people interested to have a skidpan day at the AHG drive centre, if not ill just enter a public one. but i thought it would be a good excuse to put cars to faces.
i would be looking to do it around July August so we have some time to organise it and what not.
if your keen just say so in the thread and we will go from there.
cheers mat.

[sdkh]

Yeah dude Def would be keen to jump in one, Only done days in the V8's there not my own car.... Always wanted to try.... Keenasbru

[monk_13]

Keen pending dates... working away n shit....

[manna_85]

Hey Mat.
I was the one that took ur spot last time u couldnt make AHG. Im possibly keen pending date as well. but i reckon its better to go on the public one remember everyone just left so i had the whole skid pan to myself haha.

[thnk_again]

^^lol so true, but i do enjoy watching other cars go at it.

i called the center today they have most dates available in late July early Aug
so what would suit people better a Saturday or a Sunday?
im only looking for ten people so we can get a few runs in. and it will be $82.50each

[Rantopotamus]

id be keen .. car should be all done by then! Wana see if i can keep smoke pouring off the tyres for the whole thing!

[AGIT8D]

Nice way to be shown the door.....

[Steppo_GT]

[thnk_again]

every time i post you have something cynical to say.

Have you seen the name of the fucking title thread???


" eoi: skid pan day at ahg around July-Aug "


What does the first WORD state?

Well done for taking everything literally.

WTF? I think you're mistaking me for one of the other numerous members who think you talk babble on here mate :) I don't follow your every post pulling you down a peg, you're not that special to me ;)

Yes, it's a skid pan day, but you get booted if you "try to keep smoke pouring off you tyres for the whole thing"

Maybe you shouldn't take the term skid pan so literally and accept the fact that I was only warning you if you go out there trying to be a hero and pretend it's snake pit practise you'll be shown the door.

Your money, not mine, blow it on the first lap if you want!! :wave:

[thnk_again]

well that fukin suks, i called today to book it in for the 25th but! they are all booked out. next available would be the 8th of aug, im still keen just means we have to wait a little longer.

[Alt_F4]

What does the first WORD state?
Expression? :p
But yeah they don't like excessive smoke (ie static burnouts), mainly cause it ruins the surface.

Would like to go if its a wet weather session, as every time I've gone has been in stinking heat :(

[Rantopotamus]

HA!!

and I think your mistaking me for someone else as well... I can count 3 seperate occasions where you give some spiteful comment.. dont care was just telling you to shut the fuck up...

but if i took it in the wrong way and you were being sincere then my bad.

i talk shit on here just like anybody else. tbh i always liked your car and what youve doen with it. Was just taken aback by a couple comments...

And yeah im obviously not giong to sit brake the whole thing. But doing a coulpe of bommer slides wuold be nice.

[brynj]

Yeah last time I went they said don't be a dickhead and any one doing scandinavian flicks and massive burnouts will be out.. That said there was definite corner linkage.

[thnk_again]

as long as you keep a good controlled effort they love it i reckon, altho i did ask them about a "expression session" they weren't to keen lol.
im pretty keen on bringing it forward to 19th or 12th of july that time is as good as any i reckon.i will call up Monday and if its available ill get one, and we can go from there,does any one know what happens if i don't get the numbers but give them a week or so notice?

[AGIT8D]

HA!!

Man, regardless of whether you like my car or not I was just warning you that going out there lacing up the tyres is gonna get you booted and be a waste of your time and money. Don't think I'm being spiteful just because I hung shit on KEC.. I'm not attacking you and I was genuinely saying - If you go to an AHG day and drop huge skids you'll be told to GTFO...

Let's steer this puppy back on topic so the thread doesnt go to shit!

[Butcher]

They dont care if you drift slide and peelout of corners as long as they can see the car is in control, BUT if you loose control and spin out expect a foot in the date.Do it multiple times and you will be shown the door.
I took a group of guys down last month when it was raining and we were linking all the corners and kim didnt mind as we wernt spinning

you hung shit on KEC?? dude i cant even remember that or give a fuck. Like your the first??? !!! LOL

Ive been there for 2 weeks so im not taking offense to anything you say about him or the workshop. Good bunch of crew to work with and my opinion is if everyones brains were as big as their mouths then they would have atleast half the assets / technology / drag championships celebrity friends or contacts in the industry as he does. No one knows shit about him but what someone once told his dogs cousin.

And back on topic My old bunky torana is only good for straight lines and a bit of a powerslide so hopefully I can get out there and learn how to drive the fucking thing again. Especially now its Auto..

So the new date is in August?

Fair enough, and as stated above you wouldn't have been any risk of damaging the driving surface either, being it was wet and all..

Got any vids of the day?

[thnk_again]

"So the new date is in August?"


on Monday ill book it im goin to try and push for the 11th of july, as im not from perth and i like to try and incorporate the most motor sports in as possible on my trips to perth, on the 10th there is drift practice on so i would like to do that as well.
but chances are the 11th is booked will let you know monday.

[The_Hunster]

definitely keen, keep us updated on whats happening :)

[thnk_again]

all right.... pretty sketchy but here it is,
they have a spot for the 11th of july morning or arvo,how ever i need to get every ones payment before i can book and unfortunately i cant offer a refund if you don't turn up because they don't offer refunds.
the sooner you guys get the cash to me the sooner i can book it and guarantee a 11th of july spot.
pm me for payment details.
AT THIS STAGE THERE ARE 8 SPOTS LEFT AT 82.50 EACH

[thnk_again]

i need 4 more people guys, there will be some nice cars there buy the sounds of it so far.

[Evilteddy]

Would do it if it wasn't a Saturday...

[Butcher]

Fair enough, and as stated above you wouldn't have been any risk of damaging the driving surface either, being it was wet and all..

Got any vids of the day?

Yeah got a few but they are uber poor quality due to the rain and not having sound cos of the wind got some good pics though

[Tre-Cool]

i'll send through payment on friday. (same nick as the one on ls1.com.au)

I got kicked the last time i went. one was for a skid, the 2nd for having another driver in the car... (cant see how thats any different from a fucking instructor though). meh

[Steppo_GT]

Do we need a helmet for this? Very keen.

[Butcher]

Yes a helmet is a must and they do not have hireies
also you will need a long sleeved shirt long pants and enclosed shoes

[Steppo_GT]

ok next question do people usually share helmets with clean people with out nits if they dont have one or everyone uses all their own helmets?

[thnk_again]

hrmmm
when i went like last month it was a public one, but they were handing around helmets.
but you can borrow mine man no worrys
yes cool tri-cool lol. im concreating it in tommorrow hopefully

[Butcher]

Sharing helmets is fine just a little common sence is needed ie dont queue up behind the person your sharing with leave a car or two gap so you have enough time to swap without holding people up. That said drop 3rd

[Tre-Cool]

LOL fog show!

Cheers.

And that's the daily too.

the real animal is just outside my computer room window in the carport.

Sadly with a t400 & 5 grand stall it's a bit hard to get to do anything but create a smoke show.

[leighg]

yeah it was good fun, i got a few vids ill throw up later

[thnk_again]

lol yea i dont think he truly got the hole side ways action thing.....
keen to see vids my camera fuked up and i got nothin :(

[iluv2moan]

[leighg]

be good to see some of the vids and photos from the guys that took them

[ED40]

You must have been pretty loose to be told to go home, usually they only kick you out if you are cutting up everywhere and you have no control what-so-ever...
Was it the instructor that owns the Black Evo 8? He seemed ok at our mc day. Got any vids lol?

[Tocchi]

You must have been pretty loose to be told to go home, usually they only kick you out if you are cutting up everywhere and you have no control what-so-ever...
