Skid pan day or Happy Laps

Post by HATER »

Any skid pan days coming up?

Or

I would be keen to organise a 'Happy Laps' event at Lakeside or QR if we can get 30 people interested?

For those that aren’t familiar with Happy Laps, you get a group of people, either at QR or Lakeside, everyone is on track at once for 30 minutes non-stop, you can swap drivers and have passengers, you don’t need helmets or long sleeve clothes. There is no timing.

Its not racing but Spirited driving – overtaking only on straights, any stupidity and they pull everyone off.

And its only $30 depending on numbers and they put on a great meal as well. Its awesome –

If enough people show an interest I can look into dates.

Would be so cool to get all Gemis, but yeah, Gemis are priority and then would open it up to everyone else via Facebook to make numbers

Maybe some peeps on here know of the Datto / Celica kind of clubs that would be interested so the cars are of relatively the same ability -

Because I can pay $50 at QR for the wet skidpan, or drift big track at QR for $80 or drift archy for $65. haha. And drifting in the dry is funner anyways :wink:

I'd be keen for happy laps. I could get maybe 9 other non gems to come if we need numbers.
