Default motorkhana action at logic raceway

went to a motorkhana at the new logic race track near wodonga yesturday,
what great day, you really get to know how your car handles on these short track days, the word understeer comes to mind on these tight circuits.
but as they day went on to kanacross the little cobra got to stretch its legs,
and redeem its self and the driver.

Its was great fun and only $30 for the whole day got 10 runs in on 7 different courses, i came 14th out of 42 cars, so not to bad for a first go at it. A mini cooper S won the day, its final khanacross time was a 58.5 sec and i did a 59.5 so i was pretty happy with that.
As for the stig, looking like maybe, forgot i had a white shirt on under my jumper but i think thats were the similarities end

Looks like a blast...

Judging by the photo above, and the opposite lock on the steering wheel, the word Oversteer looks more applicable

oversteer by the end of the day as the courses got bigger and i got a little more confident with the car , but earlier it was like a bulldozer in the low speed tight courses, should of let the front tyres down a bit and pumped up the rears i think.
