If you missed practice today, get down to HD this weekend. The HMC are the stars! Great turnout of camaros, mustangs and all, and the supporting cast of escorts, vivas and so on are worthy reminders of the great days of NZ saloon car racing.
Also a standout to meet Jim Richards and all the other friendly people, including friends from The Roaring Season for the first time!
Thanks for the photos PallMall, we must have been standing nearby and didn't meet!
HMC got off to a great start yesterday - what a field. I shot a bit of footage at turn 3.

Turn the sound up!
More photos, these from the 2 races today.
Awesome shots.
Roll on next weekend!
Great shots Pallmall, my arms are pleasantly sore tonight, what a weekend!!!! shame about our wet Sunday morning race, the track was very slippery and i expected a safety car which is what we got!!! Steve Malam(Yellow 70 Camaro) had a brake pipe break causing him the run off and hit the tyre barrier, light damage and he's OK.
Im sure further great shots will surface once Mike Feisst gets to his computer!!

Hopefully Nigel got some shots. He always has great shots as well.
Here are a couple of shots of the happy group on Saturday afternoon at the prizegiving performed by Jim Richards, Paul Fahey and Dennis Marwood and made possible by Dale. There were some encouraging words spoken by all those involved and even Jim said that he would like to bring over his Falcon Sprint to race next year if possible.

How about the drive from Angus Fogg in the last race today!! although it broke(over heated i believe) i can't ever remember seeing a Mini go that fast, and boy was he monstered by American iron!! I'm sure some pics will surface.
Otherwise, that racing was HOT.

Dale, I reckon the HMC was a great success. It was especially interesting to see the under 3000's mixing it with the V8's keeping you guys on your toes. I wasn't there yesterday so missed Angus' epic drive [bugger] but Saturdays performance by him & Howard Wood was mightily impressive as was the roar of the V8's. The slippin & sliding provided by the Goodyears is something we spectators have been missing for many years and it's FANTASTIC to have it back.
When is the next meeting for HMC?
