MX5 RUN - Skidpan

Well now!

Skidpan rules OK !

Skidpan on Sunday 11th was the outing of note for 2014. We rolled into Zwartkops with some very dodgy weather on the horizon. Scott sketched out the gymkhana layout, and then we all walked and drove through slowly until the track layout was sorted. The weather got a lot better, and really turned into a summers day ! Meantime Jos and daughter Kaycee arrived via a dodgy 4x4 trail and bent his new mags , bummer Jos must really get a new GPS.

Got in about 6 laps of the timed Gymkhana and on average Kerry won that on 35 seconds average. However Kaycee on debut scored a credible 40 and Wendy also on debut 42. Well done the only 2 ladies in the field !

In freestyle and entertainment Scott had to be the winner, after retiring his MX5 and using the Mazda3 ! The most spin-outs had to go to Jos, must be something about those bent rims or a very heavy right foot! Newbie Eckhard had an absolute blast, must have enjoyed the day.

Well done Kevin,Vaughn and Scott in at 37 seconds, joint 2nd.

In the final analysis the winner on the day was the absolute joy and pleasure of being on the Skidpan. If you haven't taken your MX5 on Skidpan, then you have not experienced the real

 Zoom-Zoom feeling

 Below are the average times, and the track layout ,which unfortunately looks like a phallic symbol!
