MUCC News

The venue is Sketches at 272 Burwood Highway Burwood starting at 7:00 PM. The cost will be $20 per head with the Club subsidising the balance.

To enable the serving of courses to be done simultaneously (almost) a selection of three or four options will be offered for 3 courses from the normal menu and these will be posted in the next few days for pre-ordering. The normal menu is available at www.sketchescafebar.com.au.

Wine is BYO or alcohol can be purchased at the restaurant as required. Food and coffee/tea is included in the $20 cost.
We had a monthly dinner at Sketches last year and the food was very good.

I am taking reservation now by return e-mail or at fm_drake@bigpond.net.au

Acceptances in the order of receipt.

With the Civic still out of action following my discovery of the limitations of “off the shelf” head gaskets at last year’s 6 Hour Relay at Phillip Island, I saw 11 July as simply an opportunity to take my new daily driver Outback for a run up to DECA to perform scrutiny then watch the proceedings and help with timing.

That changed with an offer from Darren McKemmish to share his Fraser Clubman (a contra deal for his use of my trailer), so I added my driving suit and helmet to the gear in the car and headed off early on Sunday morning for the drive up to Shepparton.

Have you heard about CARnival?
No, it's not in Rio, it's in Echuca-Moama!
A 4 day festival of motorkhanas, rally sprints, tarmac stages at the airport and a whole heap of other activities.
Organised by the gurus who are usually responsible for ripper events such as the Red Centre to Gold Coast Trial, Bega Valley Ralley and host of other "big" events, these guys are sure to put on a good looong weekend.
This event should be a real hoot. The MAXIMUM entry fee is $195, and that allows you to enter EVERY event your car is eligible in, or you can just enter the events of your choice.

Plenty of info is available on the event website.

After 2 events (4 heats) of the VRC, the championhip lead has changed hands from Warren "Wal" Lee & David "Shermo" Lethlean to Nathan "Spew-boy" Reeves & newly appointed VRC Management Group Chairman Scott Spedding.

The big question now is can MUCC competitors Matt Swan & Paul Franklin hold onto 3rd place in the championship now that Jesse "The Bullet" Robison & Adam "Braveheart" Wright have arrived back on the scene in the newly constructed GC8 WRX. Jesse put in a very strong performance with some spectacular stage times at Bega and is likely to be challenging for outright wins for the rest of the season.

Peter Otzen and Paul Franklin will be organising a "skatta style" Touring Assembly for the HRA on June 6th.  It is a multiclub event.

We would be only too pleased to welcome MUCC members along - the event could become part of our Club Championship also perhaps.

Perhaps members with fond, and not so fond, memories of classic Night Skatters from the clubs past may like to have a go in the daylight.

Get the supp regs here.
