The September Race and Regularity meeting was a combined event as there were not enough entries to run the Regularity meeting on the Saturday… I think they all wanted to save their cars for next weekend down at Collie. Anyway many thanks to the few hardy people who came to flag (and were probably flagging by the end of the day!!!) plus a couple of drivers and racing eventually got under way ??? minutes late due to there being no Firies so WASCC committee members had to don the overalls, see Dozer we all said the move to Beverley couldn’t be done in 1 day!!! All day we were peppered with annoying showers, with horizontal rain, cold winds and numb fingers. There were plenty of incidents with the Formula Fords providing the most entertainment as usual, the Saloon Hoons seeing how many mirrors could be detached, HQ drivers ducking and diving and the Historic Sports (etc) Cars doing their usual procession… well that was practice and qualifying and the racing wasn’t much different!!! The Regularity events were small fields not very exciting to watch but were over and done with without incidents, which means Collie should be quite interesting.

The HQ BBQ was most welcome at the end of proceedings so thanks to them for putting on the spread and hopefully we will see you at the next meeting which unsurprisingly for WASCC just happens to be on Bathurst weekend but at least it is on Saturday 12th October ‘cos there ain’t no way I’m going anywhere on Sunday !!!
