:hi: Just in from CMC if anyone is interested. As yet tickets are not available but I will let you know as soon as I have them. :thumb:
It’s that time of year again when the CMC is seeking volunteers to help out with the setting up and management of the Shannons Sydney Classic on Saturday 16th & Sunday 17th August.
For those of you who haven’t volunteered before; we need volunteers on the Saturday to assist with the laying out of the parking and “stuffing” the Shannons goodie bags.
On the Sunday it is handing out goodie bags to participants on entry, directing spectators to parking etc, directing traffic and marshalling clubs so that they park correctly, and overall management of the event.
This year the CMC is providing (at their expense with lunch included) a 6-hour certificate course in traffic management on Saturday 12th July at Sydney Motorsport Park. If you would like to take part then please let me know ASAP so I can book you a spot.
The Shannons Nationals are on that weekend with an endurance race for Production Touring cars. Saturday is qualifying day and you will be able to take a break during the course to have a wander around the pit area and check out the cars and maybe meet some interesting people!
Regards

Tickets have finally arrived . The club has purchased 35 tickets at a cost of $15.00 each. We are in area B.
If you would like to attend please send your payment in or EFT and let me know. Tickets will be available to collect at the club meeting or for those who do not attend postage will be arranged. Lost tickets are your responsibility so when you receive it please place it in your cars glove box. Please do not leave it till the last week to purchase as you will be disappointed. Once sold we cannot get any more.
Entry is from approx 7.30am -9.30 and you may leave after lunch or our parade lap. I don't know what time we are scheduled in for our lap and probably will not know until the day.
Upon arrival your sticker will be on the windscreen or visible on the front of the vehicle. If it is not stuck on you will be refused entry until it is,so avoid holdups and do it in the morning before leaving home.
The window/entry ticket this year has the following benefits
- entry on Sunday 17th August to the display area for the display vehicle and all its passengers.
- a commemorative badge and a copy of the Preserve,the program for the day that will be in s goodie bag handed to all entrants at the gates on Sunday morning.
-Track tour but all members must respect the requirements of the ARDC and our insurer CAMS. We have accepted full responsibility for our members actions. You should be aware of the rules. CMC will have fixed and touring observers on the day. This is a serious insurance and regulation requirement,so please do not treat it lightly.-
-Saturday super sprint and trade show in the pit garages
Anyone who is interested in entering their vehicle for Concours please contact me.

Good Morning Everyone
The CMC is seeking volunteers to assist with the setting up at Sydney Motorsport Park on Saturday 16th of August and the event on Sunday 17th. If you are attending the SSC this year and members of your club can spare a couple of hours to help out at the event, we will be hosting a Volunteer’s meeting prior to the event. The more information we can give our volunteers will make their roles so much easier and it will be a great help to the committee if we allocate specific roles to people before the day. We are certain this approach will make things flow more smoothly, which is to the benefit of the volunteers, the clubs who are taking part and the Committee, on the day.
We have booked a room at the Greyhound Social Club, 140 Rookwood Road, Yagoona, for Saturday 9th August from 2pm to 4pm with afternoon tea provided. If you can help out with the event would you please let me know by next Wednesday 30th July, whether you can attend, we would be very grateful.
If you or your club members would like to volunteer, but can’t make the meeting that’s okay, we can still use your help, but I would need to be able to add names to the list of volunteers. So, an email or call would be very much appreciated.
Thank You & Regards
Jules

Hello,enthusiasts
Are we going to meet and go to event in convoy
Has anything been arranged
Bfit
-
Hi Bfit, as entry is between 7.30 and 9.30 I expect cars will be arriving at random and will be a bit hard to organise a convoy.
-
Read through the posts
Is the entry via main gate or drag strip entry
Bfit
-
Gate 9 near the drags entry.
-
thanks mate

You guys still heading out today ?
Was hoping to pop in see you all and introduce my gang but weather is not the best.
Chris.

been to gm day in the rain and no one showed except me.
Dont think I'll get to see the 28 v16 open top cadillac today
-
Well I'm here so see you there. Rain radar looks like it'll clear in a couple of hours

BOM says for Sydney
Cloud decreasing. Rain areas easing to isolated showers around the middle of the day, then likely increasing again tonight. The chance of thunderstorms from early this afternoon. Winds easterly 30 to 45 km/h tending westerly 25 to 35 km/h in the afternoon then tending northwesterly in the evening.
CMC have said it will go ahead rain hail or shine. 2 out of 3 aint bad.Had several calls with members opting out. Obviously its not a great day but if you are going drive safely especially if they let you out on track at the creek.

Too wet for me guys, its pouring in Penrith.

Live update from trackside - it's raining :)
8 Vettes here so far

Yes it was wet.
By the time we hit the freeway north it was blue sky and dry!!!!
The lap was interesting. You know the feeling of having to wait for ever for a bus and then 3 come along!!!!!
