21/11/15 & 29/11/15 weekends

The last two weekends have seen the circuit event season come to an end. With only one sprint event left with just a few lucky officials taking part in next weekend’s speed event, most are signing off for the year. Last weekend saw the WASCC Enduro Race Meeting at Barbagallo Raceway and I think the showcase event was the Wanneroo 100. Showing off the new 2016 partners in crime, HQ Racing WA and WA Excel Cup, it made for some great racing. Hopefully signs of things to come for 2016. Well done also go to the drivers from Saloon Car Racing WA, Improved Production Racing Association of WA and Street Car Racing Western Australia (I’m sure I’ve forgotten someone, sorry!) for their W200 and W300 events!

This weekend saw the weekend open with a WA Drift practice. A huge shout out to the flaggies who showed up after a last minute call up. It was great to watch from the sidelines as you all arrived to offer support to not only WA Drift but also one of our own flaggy members.

Saturday saw a group head down for Super Karts WA event at Collie Motorplex. Thanks for those who travelled down for the day, especially when you all turned around and headed to…

Vintage Stampede put on by Vintage Sports Car Club of WA today. I want to thank each and every person, official, volunteer and driver, for making my first Clerk of Course stint an absolute pleasure. While we finished late, the feeling from all competitors was that it was a fantastically run event and they all were stoked with how it all came together. That comes down to all the officials and volunteers working the event so you should all be extremely proud of a job well done.

To everyone I won’t see between now and the end of the year, have a great break, a great Christmas and a great New Year. If you don’t celebrate Christmas, enjoy the holidays that come with it. We as a group (not just as flaggies but the whole group of officials and volunteers) have had a fantastic 2015 and here’s to an even bigger and better 2016!
