australian touge?

Yeah people might start using hill climb tracks in reverse

Never thought of that! good idea!
Emphasis would be alot more on driver skill, rather than traction out of slow corners( bad for high powered FF) and uphill grunt (something most of our hondas are lacking )

I'd also like to see it, so far I've done a hill climb twice, in my GTR it was challenging, the civic handles well it just lacks the grunt. You'd have to check with CAMS on what teh rules would be running in reverse though cause it would be dangerous

Also if your in NSW, there area few HC places, Huntley near dapto, Raymond terrace near new castle and Wakefield park near goulburn

Touge = Yarra Boulavard

Touge = Putty Road

[Steer^Gimic]

lol, the last two replies have your answer :P

[steve]

true,
However it would be nice if an event was organised on a private road...
Somewhere where cars can be put into classes and there is no fear of having a head on with a truck that might happen to wonder on2 your side of the road whilst your going round a posted 35kph bend at double that...
I mean not that it has ever happened to me

[Steer^Gimic]

haha. as good as it sounds in theory, lets just take a minute to think of how difficult it would be to organise such an event.

vicroads/rta notification, public liability, insurance etc...

touge isnt big, like say drifting here, so support wouldnt be that great.

for know, just keep it to yourself, stay safe and hope to god that truck doesnt come your way

You might want to consider Morwell Hillclimb, and also the annual Mt Buller hill climb if you are in Victoria.

uphill is for pussy's and turbo's!!!!

[iced]

i read somewhere touge means tail-gate racing.
which would be illegal.

ive yet to try out putty road but, old pacific hwy is good.

Touge is mountain pass. That is the direct translation from japanese to english.
