Hi all,
I have entered this event. I am hoping to see some local and out of town fives there. Motorkhana is great fun. If you are headed to the Sprints for a look see, why not consider competing in the motorkhana. You can then be a participant as well as a spectator. Don't be put off by the Queensland Championship monicker.... for most it is just a bit of fun, and all are welcome.
Below is reposting a note from Keith Butcher of HSCCQ.

Re: Motorkhana QMC Rnd 5 at Maryborough this Saturday 28/7
Spotted a few fives up at Maryborough... two in khana and two in the sprints.
Khana was great if a bit underbscribed. We ended up doing the last three long courses in the dark
as we had to wait for the sprints to finish to get a long piece of tarmac.
I personally had a blast even though my driving was crap. I kept kissing the flags as I came to handbrake turns too tight. Only one WD though, in the dark. Also came in to a finish garage too hot and partly detached my front lip on a kerb. Zip ties are my friend.
I also learned how to get 4 full size 215 tyres into an MX5 with a cage and hardtop.
Some pics below, I hope.
The sprint course looks pretty good, except for one corner exit being through a gate. The corner with the blue MX in is a beauty... off a short straight, it is right hander tightening to about 150 degrees with a dip in the apex. A wonderful array of wacked out racecars and serious DDs were there. From a fish-out-of-water Nascar to a Goggomobile. It was good to see the XP that was badly damaged at Noosa last weekend was revived and seeming to run strongly.
The next HSCCQ motorkhana is on 19th August. It is a not to serious "Come'n'try" event. Details at http://www.hsccq.com/upcoming-events/multi-club-motorkhana-august-2012/
Cheers all!
