Umm, you don't need a fire extinguisher for motorkhana. Or suspension. Or a tuned engine. Or race seats. Or a helmet. Or anything really, apart from a car that will sort of get you from A to B, and some money for the day.

 

In fact, I think the only monies you need are:

 

$25 for entry fees (if you book in before 26th)

$20 for Level 1 CAMS licence

$40 for club membership

 

All this I think you can get ON THE DAY. You can upgrade your Level 1 licence to a Level 2S I think within 21 days or something, I've forgotten. Club membership is payable once a year. $25 for a day of motorkhana is bloody cheap.

 

So stop trying to "upgrade" your car or "make it handle" or "go harder" and come out and play :|

... and look where I am now :|

 

*edit* Just for anyone interested, this is what I'll be running:

 

Pinky. KE55 with 4KC, estimated running < 30hp at the wheels and dropping on a daily basis. Running oil that is about as thick as it gets and it STILL blows smoke... Not remarkably reliable, in fact broke down (again) yesterday. Open diff, $20 tyres on the back with about 2% thread, $80 tyres on the front with about 50% thread. Rear shocks in dire need for replacement, super-dodgy Monroe Gas. Front shocks not all that flash anymore, KYB's. Handbrake doesn't really work, might be drums needing machining, might be shoes a bit old, might be both. Or something else. Doesn't help that handbrake cable has stretched and doesn't provide anymore adjustment.

 

So yes, if you think your car is a shitbox and you can't come out to play because of that, think again :)

Ah, will the Mr :| be there too!!! Uh Oh, this time I'm going AAAALLLL the way back to the end of the line aren't I? :)

 

I hear a certain KE15 owned by Mr Doug will also be there, and he's just gotten new swaybars and apparently it's completely transformed his car, and he was quicker than me last time too!
