HSCCV VMC Rd 4 - 21/05/2006

We held round 4 of the VMC at Werribee 21st May, this was the first time that the club has held a state round, 35 entries, ten tests were run and finished by 3pm. The surface was in the best condition I have ever seen it in, it was a nice solid surface that produced very little dust.

The feedback has been great and one seasoned VMC competitor told me that it was the best and most well organised VMC round he has competed in. This was achieved due to the fantastic help from club members on the day, the timers, scrutineers, BBQ cooks you all did a great job and I thank you very much for making the day a success.

The BBQ was a success, we ran out of sausages twice. The club made a profit of approx $500.00 on the event. Ray brought out a power auger that made the set up a breeze, we set the tests up in record time.

Five members entered and Troy in the HD was very entertaining, Kim and Kylie tried to kill Kim’s Drof, and Kylie beat Kim by quite a margin. At the end of the day Kylie had a drive in a couple of the specials and found out that Werribee dust tastes like. Ray came second in class D, Kylie third and Kim forth. Troy managed seventh in class C with Frank Rogan taking third also in class C.

The fourth round of G5 series was also at Werribee the following week and seven members entered. Kylie shared the Barina with me and decided that power steering and a small car are the way to go. Kim brought the Dulux special out and shared the car with his son Jaeger.
