The Sporting Car Club have announced the Date for the Old Crocks run next May. Might be an opportunity to put on a display. Plenty of time to get a few more CKs built.

Had a great day at The Bend with the SAVSA crew. We had a prime spot on the green outside the main building.
Was interesting to watch people make their way along the lineup of cars and then start scratching their heads when they got to the Cyclekart. Their confusion was probably addled by the lack of bodywork. It definitely piqued the interest...Had a great day at The Bend with the SAVSA crew.

Was interesting to watch people make their way along the lineup of cars and then start scratching their heads when they got to the Cyclekart. Their confusion was probably addled by the lack of bodywork. It definitely piqued the interest of a few people.
Was also great to watch the kids sitting in the Speedcars, a favourite with parents and children alike. Unfortunately the Cyclekart was without a seat so missed out on that opportunity this time around.
We handed out a few flyers and chatted to a few people. I also got a few ideas for a better display for the next event. Had an opportunity to take a walk around the facility and watch a bit of racing too.
Looking forwards to the next event at Mt Barker on the 10th.
A big thanks to Bill and the SAVSA crew for their hospitality.Post is under moderationStream item published successfully. Item will now be visible on your stream. -

It looks like this event will be pushed back one week due to a clash. Will update the listing once I have received confirmation from SAVSA

So far, the only event that has been confirmed is the 'Old Crocks Run', which starts at Victoria Park racetrack and terminates on Wiggley reserve. This is being held on May 5th
More details here - https://www.sportingcarclub.com.au/about-3
The other event that is of interest is the Victor Harbour 1936 GP Event. However, so far no details have been posted, but I'm sure I read somewhere that this was to be held in November and comprised of a meet and cruise of the original course, which coincide with current public roads.
I think that both of these events would be a good opportunity to promote what we are doing and organise a display. I figure that if we can get a few of us to commit to the date, I'd be happy to approach the SCCSA and see if I can arrange permission to put on a static display.
