2008 HISTORIC WINTON

[winton]

Historic Winton is Australia's Premiere All - Historic race meeting
and the 2008 event will be held on May 24 - 25 at Winton Motor Raceway , near Benalla . 200 kms North of Melbourne.

Over 400 historic cars and motorbikes compete in 46 action packed events over the weekend and one of the highlights of any Historic Winton is the Classic Car Park which is full of interesting old vehicles and their eccentric owners .. We would love to see a few vintage caravans at this years meeting ... and the older the better.

A camping ground is located at the Winton Motor Raceway
for those that wish to stay overnight on the Saturday

If members of the Vintage Caravan Club are interested in putting on a small display of pre 1950 caravans with similar vintage tow vehicles at 2008 Historic Winton a batch of free entry tickets will be available

I hope it works for you although asking for a display of pre 1950 caravans might be a bit optimistic........ make it pre 1960 and you could get a few entries.

See how it goes, I might be jumping the gun.

hey guys,

I will be there. I help with the recovery crew so I sit on turn 9, get fed and watered and have an uninterrupted view all weekend.
Whats more I sleep in the Teardrop overnight. I am willing to tow the TD around to the display area if required but it would look a bit silly all by itself.
Any others want to come up for the weekend (or just Sunday?) Let me know, perhaps we can get together for a meal Sat night.

cheers, Leigh.

Any takers?

Hey Leigh,
Did you get there? and did you take a camera?

Unfortunately, I too was stuck back at home........

Cheeers,

Hi Gristy, yes and no.

I did not see any other V V's there but I enjoyed a weekend of Classic racing and teardropping.

Perhaps next year.
