Quick question to clubs in the eastcoast area. www.moorebankraceway.com club in sydney (NSWRCRCC Inc) is planning on hosting an event during the last weeks of June. We are planning on making this date our regular birthday bash date for our club. Are there any events such as state titles, 5th scale, 8th or 10th being held by any clubs in Vic, SA, NSW or QLD during the last two weeks in July?

please PM any details for June/july 2008 to me please.

info on following classes: 5th, 8th and tourer.

cheers

Dude, did you spend all night at Parra Leagues after we left? That sentence did not make any sense.

Also, are you talking about the last two weeks in June or July?

Tomas, I have attached the 2008 PDNR Event Calendar for your reference, it has all PDNR's 2008 events, along with Nitro Interclub Series events.

You can also download a copy here.

The two proposed dates? end June and/or end July from what I understand would clash with the Summer Nats (June 28/29) and the PDNR Challenge (scheduled for August 2/3)

Hope this helps.

Tomas the Qld IC Titles are always the last weekend in July or the first weekend in August. Next year they are the weekend of the 2nd and 3rd August.

The South East Queensland Interclub events for 2008 (1/10th EP and GP ) will be as follows

March 8/9: Bayside Cup
May 17/18: Sunshine Coast Cup
July 19/20: Logan Winter Cup
Nov 29/30: Gold Coast Challenge

ok. So June during the first two weeks is open, also the first two weeks in July.

Anything happening on September? and when are the 10th and 8th scale nationals? (from memory i think it is October for the tourer/8th nationals right?) when is the 5th's?

i'm also thinking late May (after the tamworth interclub) may be a good time any events during this period?

Entry forms came out yesterday. Which is clearly to late for most of you but ill post it up anyway.

'2008 will see a couple of Australian drivers competing in GP Tourer for the first time. Associated factory driver Andrew Abbott will return for another go at the Albany track while negotiations are still underway with HPI Team Drivers Peter & Steven Jovanovic.'

The entry form explains pretty much all you need to know.

The Offroad Arm of the Maitland Club in NSW will be holding a trial 1/8th scale meeting on the 3rd of February to determine the suitability of the current offroad layout. It is the same layout that was used for the 2007 1/10th electric National Championships. The club is presently trying to determine whether it should build a separate track for 1/8th scale racing, whether multiple layout of the one track would be better, or if one track design could accommodate both 1/10th and 1/8th scale racing.

There has been no 1/8th offroad racing in Newcastle or the Hunter region since the Redhead Offroad club lost the use of their facilities and the Maitland Club is keen to determine the interest level of locals and the wider 1/8th community for holding this type of racing in the area.

Date: Sunday 3rd of February
Classes (nominally): Buggy, Truck, Monster Truck
Entry Fee: $25 non-members, $20 members (Annual Membership Fee: $10)
