Oonah Road Hillclimb Results

Results have been posted for the inaugural event of the season.  The day started out with torrential conditions leaving a lot of standing water on the track and making it very tricky for drivers to get anywhere near the handling limits of their cars.  Through the day the rain came and went in varying different showers and downpours, ensuring that all officials and spectators alike were thoroughly drenched by the end of the day.

Some great times were set and congratulations to James Lonergan who took the outright win in his Nissan R32 GTR in less than ideal conditions.

Thanks to all involved with the day - it takes dedication to turn up to an event knowing that the weather is against us, but as always, the dedication of the officials, competitors and spectators is something that keeps this club going and makes Oonah Road Hillclimb one of the strongest events in Tasmania for Club Hillclimb.

 
NWCC Forum and Website Update

Finally the Forum is back, after a VERY long break from service, we are now back in action, the reason for taking the forum down was that it was being attacked by spammers, to stop this we have had to upgrade the forum software, now this is done, the spammers will not be able to get back in so easy - only one problem.... All members that WERE signed up, will now need to re-complete the process of becoming a member again.  This is unfortunate, but it is the only way we can assure that we dont get 'spammed' all over again.

The new update also has MANY really cool features, this will hopefully make up for the stuff around in having to re-register as a member.

The website has also had a makeover, albeit a small one, but it sports some new cars, representing Rally, Tarmac and Special Events.  While these changes are subtle it helps keep the site fresh, for the end of 2010 if you have any other cool ideas, or pictures to submit that might be appropriate, please let me know

Happy 2010!

We wish all our members and sponsors a Happy New Year and hope that your festive season was a fun and safe one!  The first event of the year kicks off on the 13th of February with the famous Oonah Road Hillclimb.  A familiar start to the year - unfortunately the Khanacross that was planned for the 30th of January has been postponed to a later date.

On an more important note, the AGM is held on Thursday the 4th of February at McKenna Park Hockey Complex.  This is the most important meeting on the calendar.  If you want to make your voice heard, PLEASE be there, Kick off is at 8:00pm sharp.  Be Heard, BE THERE!

The North West Car Club Calendar has also been published - the Entry and Regs page has a listing of the events for this year, if you would like a PDF copy you can download this HERE.

The website will also be receiving a long awaited face-lift.  Over the next few weeks you may notice that the page is unavailable, this will only be for short periods while things are modified.  If you notice the page is unavailable, please sit tight, we will be back, bigger and better, very shortly!
