Default Perth Burnout pad wanted

Hi everyone

I am chasing some help...

Trying to organise my brothers bucks and he is mad about burnouts so am just wanting to have a small private burnout comp he has a skid rig and so do i so thats two so far. does anyone know a privately owned skid pad thats local? i have been pencilled in at barbagello but the only problem is the cost :( so if anyone can help us out that would be much appreciated as i am also for keeping this stuff in a dedicated controlled environment but still having heaps of fun! we are in perth as well.

I have a 351 XE ute as a skid car and my brother has a stock XF six.

Also since we will be up for lots of $$$ anyway if someone can help us then they will see some $$$ go their way.

Cheers

is there one at the motorplex? you could try the Collie Motorplex, but it is a bit of a drive.

I went to a birthday party on a private property, and we had this enormous burnout bash in the shed.

Check this out if you want a laugh.

cheers for the input fellas, haha the shed looks good but i was hoping for enough room to swing the back end around a bit, collie i called but they will only let me hire the whole joint which is $$$ motorplex is the same deal. just a skid pad in the bush away from everyone would be ideal

Yep, remember this, even had the backing of WAPOL and the RAAF. RAAF had to approve as smoke may at times obscure the runways. RAAF even offered the use of the Fire Truck if required and RAAF medics.

Pity it never went to ahead, there was more to preventing the pad going ahead by certain motorsport facilities.
