We had another great year of Superkhana events in 2009, reports, photos and results can be seen below. And for 2010, we have scheduled more great Superkhana days. If you haven't competed for a while, you'll enjoy our new streamlined events and fabulous courses. And if you've never participated, these are ideal events for first-timers - we always have a few. If you're not sure, come along and have a look at one of our events - it's free.

The Speed Dome is at the Eastern end of Eddie Barron Drive, in Midvale. Spectator entry is free and there is an excellent, shady viewing area with refreshments available on site. Action starts at 9am.

Take a look through the Superkhana web pages and see the fantastic variety of cars which has competed over the years. And the cost is still the same - just $65 for the best value motor sport day you'll enjoy. There's no need to modify your car, which will be checked prior for roadworthiness. Drivers need a good quality helmet. long sleeves and a competition license - many car clubs can issue a CAMS license and we can issue AASA Licenses on the day for $50 for a year's License. It's all straightforward and the easiest way to enjoy your motor sport.

August 8th Superkhana - Report, Photos & Results

A perfect, sunny day in the middle of winter greeted a full field of entries for our August Superkhana Day. We had unprecedented interest in this event, with the field full two weeks prior to the event and a waiting list for places should anyone have to withdraw.

We had a fantastic mix of cars - what other Australian event could you go to and see a Ford GT40 competing against a Fiat 500 and a Holden Gemini against a Maserati Karif? It's always so good to see such a variety of cars entered.

Franz Esterbauer crossed to the dark side - the Evo driver piloting a Subaru WRX for the day from Japanese Wholesale Spares - and proved he's a pretty mean pedaller behind the wheel of anything fast, taking out first place. Two seconds adrift in the total time taken was Bruce Hawley in his trusty Skyline GTR, followed by Steve Metlitzky's Lotus Elise a fraction behind.

Julian O'Hara showed great skill in handling his unwieldy but very impressive Ford GT40 replica, taking out 6th place, even with the car not running properly after a few runs. The flames from the exhaust pipes were impressive though!

It was great to see some of the girls who did our All-Girls event last month having a go too.

Thanks to our officials who helped run the day so smoothly.

Provisional results are below. In addition to the photos which appear here (copyright AEM), there are also photos available at:

June Superkhana - Report, Results & Photos

Great weather was a nice mid-winter surprise - and thoroughly enjoyed by all who entered our sold-out June Superkhana. We had probably the best mix of cars we've seen for a long time, as you'll see from our photos. Rarities included a Holden Gemini Gypsy van - how many of them would be left in existence? Italian cars were particularly well represented with a variety of Alfa Romeos including a rare 147 GTA, a stunning competition-prepared De Tomaso Pantera Group 4 and a beautiful Ferrari Dino 246GT.

It was great to see variety such as an early Mini, and AMG Mercedes SLK, a Torana, a pair of Escorts, several MGs, some early Skylines and a modern FPV Falcon in the mix. Among the other notable cars were a Mitsubishi FTO and a Lotus Elise.

A clutch problem saw Vince Troth's usually reliable Fiat 131 sidelined, and his everyday Subaru WRX entered in its place. And the result was certainly interesting, with Vince scoring second place outright, fractions behind the winner Dennis Heller, whose driving was very impressive indeed.

Tsung Lee will be pleased with his excellent result - third place and first of the 2WD cars. His Civic certainly looked quick on track. And it's great to see two of the oldest cars in the event make it into the top ten places.  Provisional results are shown below.

Thanks to our team of officials - Martin, Ian, Brock, Clive and Natalie for helping out on the day.

The next Superkhana date is August 8th.  Entries will open in a couple of weeks.
