Our very special guest on this weekend will be Kevin Bartlett, who is generously joining us from his home in Queensland. Kevin was a champion in many disciplines in the golden era of motor racing, winning the Gold Star in the Australian Drivers’ Championship back to back in 1968 and ‘69, as well as the 1974 Bathurst 1000 with co-driver John Goss, and the 1969 Macau Grand Prix. Racing touring cars over two decades, he was also the first person to set a 100 mile an hour lap at Bathurst, among many other achievements.
We are organising a dinner on Saturday the 30th of November at the Alpha Hotel, when we can hear some of the stories direct from the man who wrote Big Rev Kev, including of the many cars he drove faster than most, from Morris Minors to Formula 5000s to BMW 635s and the Channel 9 Camaro. And with a little luck, we hope to have some of those cars on display over the weekend.
Please indicate your intention to attend this dinner, including the number of places you would like, so that we can confirm with the venue. Email president@hsrca.com. Tickets will be $60 a head and include a buffet dinner.
Joining our celebration of Kevin Bartlett, we look forward to the Group S enduro, a feature for Formula Ford, and of course events for all historic classes (subject to minimum entries). Garages and carports will be allocated in order of entries received.
Entries are now open on the Motorsport Australia Member Portal. We have kept our entry and garage fees at the same level as recent events, despite our increased costs, and hope that all groups will support this event and send off 2024 with a magic Summer Festival. And then look forward to 2025, when we will have another great circuit to again conduct historic racing – Back to Goulburn on 1-2 February 2025.
Wayne Wilson,
President, HSRCA
