Watch the VW's fly... May 15

amazer · 2005-05-01T08:55:54+00:00

Round 5 NSW hillclimb championship. VW's have an outstanding record at Huntley. Come see the best the state has to offer. See road registereds, sports sedans, open wheelers. Cheap day out for the whole family, gold coin donation only. Where? Huntley Hillclimb, Avondale Rd, West Dapto. From the north... Heading south down the freeway take the 2nd Dapto exit (Fowlers Rd exit). Turn right off the exit ramp. At the end of Fowlers, turn left onto Princes Highway. Approx 800m up the hill there is a takeaway shop on the right. Turn right just after it. (Avondale Rd) Follow Avondale until you get to what appears to be the end of it and turn right again. Follow that to bottom of mountain, and you will see us. From south... Take Dapto exit, turn left at the end of offramp. After you go around a right hand bend turn left into Huntley Rd. Just follow the road out to the bottom of the mountain (it changes to Avondale Rd along the way).

You should try living in Warilla, de virginise anyone around here and you will end up in jail for sure. Cheap though, you could get em for a bag of lollies.

Probably not actually, the parents would make you give a pack of ciggies and a bottle of bourbon.

click the link.
when the page loads scroll to the bottom, and click on 'free'.
when the new page loads it will say please wait xx seconds for your download, just wait, eventually a link should appear.
right click on it and 'save target as'

I've got quite a bit of video featuring Gregs car from inside and outside. But I don't have anything like that. He's hammering and it sounds fantastic.

Thanks for posting the video

Thanks Guys,

Had a great day, ended up being quite a long one after getting up at 5am to drive the bug down to Huntley, I didn't want to miss the start and as usual it takes some time before I remembered all the things I needed for a successful day!.

Good meeting Danny and Kai, funny story is that I met Danny in 2000 when he came to install a new windscreen in my bug when I got back into racing!! as he said on the day, something about my car seemed familiar!

See you at Grafton, that should be a bit of fun
😉
