Gymkhana, autokhana, skilled driving test, auto test are all the same thing with different names used in different countries. Basically the event involves skilled driving forwards and reversing. The tests are relatively short and speeds are very low, so are good entry-level events for newcomers. Overseas many people build "specials" specifically for these events to give good handing and plenty of power.

yep. And many ppl in malaysia like to go to the tracks, but really, short courses are the start to track days. It's a race, but u don't brush fenders with other cars, cuz u do it one car at a time.

PS : I've posted a new discussion topic, just to widen the topics of conversation in this autox/sso/gymkhana thingy :)

whatdamn,
If I were u, and this is my first time, i'll drive it with abs on first. See how it drives. Then decide whether I need the abs in the next round.

eater,

LanNismo,

I would advise you to change your faulty drive shaft first. You wouldnt want your drive shaft to come off in the middle of the race right? You dont need to really do up your car all at one go. Most of us upgrade our cars progressively. When I ran my first event in early 2004, I didnt have any mods at all done to my car. I was running with stock standard rims & suspensionr. My first one was damn fun. My car was going everywhere and it lean like a sampan at sea. After that, I upgraded it slowly & I could feel the difference on each mod I have done to the car. Thats the fun part.



whatdamn,

Yup... I was a bit high at that time after my happy hour session. Where's Henry nowadays? We should yam char soon. Msg me if there is any TT session. 019-2710000

Thats bcoz I have been racing these events for a while. I am sure one day you will be there too. When I ran my first event, I was like a typical newbie and knew nothing about driving fast. After a few rounds of events, you will get a hang of it.

julianpang,
henry ar, haven't heard much from him the past year...stopped yum chaing with the WiSE grp liao...haha sure man no prob. i might come to see the event first to get a brief idea on how the event is run first. cause 2 weeks time might be a bit to short for me to get new tyres...unless kks will have tyre sponsors? cause i'm currently waiting for sponsor replies. as my es100s are dying liao. sigh.

killerb,
just tired the car without abs and it felt more or less the same when driving with it on. the only prob is my left brakes were smoking after a few runs around b.jalil park carpark :p

No need new tyres. Just ran it as it is first. Just fix your brakes will do.

Julian is right. Don't get too excited about getting the car set up. There are many other things you will need to improve and get used to even before you start to tweak the suspension, brakes, tyres, etc. I think it is more important that the brakes are working right or else you will have a very twitchy car.

 

[whatdamn]

hmmm,
i'll get that checked first lor i guess...i might take a trip to 'kin alignment' in sunway as it's convinient for me to get my suspensions checked and some negative camber set in say about -0.5 to -1 degree? hmm....dunno la, cause my usual mech can't set the car up much as using the stock nut/screw to adjust the camber only achieved (for the front) +0.1(L) and +0.17"(R) so my mech told me to go to the pros to get it setup and purchase a special screw that will allow for at least a max -ve camber adjustment of -1.5 degrees.

any comments?

thanks :)

A healthy drive-shaft is especially important for FF to watch out for and a faulty absorber will slowly provide problems to the FF drive-train.... take care.
