    Wish I had've known about this sooner. I was at the last event. Loved it.
    Seems a nice entry level into motor sports. Still building my car and would love to have a go at this in the future...

    Have fun guys.

    I'm curious too, i would have liked to run today but had to work, i reckon the numbers of entrants would have been high due to the cheap entry cost ..

    Twas much fun ......had Ian, Pete (Crazy) and myself running....as well as someone from the TCCAV in an ST165 Celica who I didn't know.....pretty much 100 cars showed up and everything ran smoothly and efficiently........weather had a few light showers before the first familiarity run but after that it was dry all day.......sun even showed in parts so all in all a top day.....certainly worthy for the $25 entry fee......never thought I would drop $120 or so on a regular hillclimb day but after today I may just as it is pretty addictive.

    it was a pretty good day
    it rained coz i was there , this makes it 7 in a row that it has rained
    thge day went smoothly
    i had only two runs as i am trying to save the shitter for the six hour
    there were three celica's
    grahams ,crazy's and mine
    it was a pity that the toyota club vic was not represented better
    there were a great mix of cars there , one that caught my attention , was a very well prepared
    mini moke with a twin cam toyota drive train
    it looked factory ,it was that good
    grahams red celica ran faultless , as did, crazy's beutiful green ta 22
    all round , a great day

    Hey Ian, you forgot to mention the Mighty Boy. Those of you who went to the classic Japan day that TCCA ran at Fairfield would probably remember the metallic silver/blue M.B with the turbo motor parked next to his wifes red M.B. Naturally it performed well considering its light weight. Was a great day even though it was almost an hour between runs due to the numbers that turned up. It was a great idea having a mentor to guide you around the track if you wanted one. Picked up some valuable hints on where the best driving lines were. BTW the next inter club hillclimb is not next weekend as was advertised, its the following weekend, Oct 14th. This was mentioned at the drivers briefing.
