it was a great day out at Canberra Hillclimb . Early morning rain made the track very slippery . Colin did very well in his black beetle with his
quickest run of 49.23 secs and 1st in class . Chris Bolton in the WPVW formula vee 1200 ran a quickest time of 50.63 secs and 3rd in class . I ran the
WPVW sports sedan with a quickest time of 49.73 secs and 2nd in class . This was much slower than the record I set in 2003 of 45.8 secs . I now
appreciate how good new tyres are , the tyres on the sports sedan are 7 years old and are really buggered . Lack of grip contributed to an off track
excursion with no damage and still a time of 49.98 secs . Late afternoon rain poured down cutting short many competitors day of racing, mine included
. I managed 3 timed runs before the rain and then the sports sedan was loaded back onto the trailer . I was having enough trouble keeping it on the
track in the dry , time for some new tyres . Well done to all who competed.

Great pics Wayne.
It was fantastic to finally get behind the wheel of my car after a long lay off and lots of r&d in between.
It,s very satisfing to put into practice all your research and development and be happy with the results.
I had a great time at Canberra hillclimb it was my first time there and after a nervous first run i enjoyed the day, even though as Wayne said i to
only got three runs it still heaps of fun,
and great to catch up with you Wayne again.
Hope to see you at Bathurst in April.
Cheers Col

Thanks for the photos Wayne.
Great to hear of the 3 Volksy's running at the front. Well done Colin. Love the polished cookie cutters.
Might have to come down for one of your more northern NSW rounds and catch up.
