Bewdy!!!!!!

I know it wasn't easy, but your (and many others down your way) persisted and dragged Huntley Hill back into existence. Nice work everyone.

Things don't just happen, you've got to make it happen!

Cheers, Greg

I'd rather wear a Beetle out by racing it than by polishing it!

Hi Chris

Its still on unless water is running across the track.

Huntley Hillclimb is out the back of Dapto on Avondale Rd as far west as you can go on Avondale.

Seemed to be going OK when I left -early - how did it turn out, Chris? Did my record get knocked off? If so, I'd better get back for the next meeting!🙄

I'd better dust off the VW Fairmont (Porsche), and get it ready for later in the year then.🙂

Can't remember Steve - maybe 26 something.That was around 30 years ago😵. It was under 3 litre Sports Sedans - Wayne Penrose may know, he ' pinched ' the record from me, I think😂

Hi Greg

It sure was a long time ago, form memory it was 2180cc, so it was just over 2 litre and well under 3 litre.

I never did get your email, then my phone died and I couldn't get your phone number to call you back.
