Well done Adrian. Fantastic car and one of my favorites. Congratulations on receiving your COD. It is worth the the hardwork in getting it and the "H" is the icing on the cake.

Cheers

HSC Director

Bruce- this then leads to the next question....where does/ should one display this priceless red sticker ?

[Spgeti]

Yes very good question John. I have seen a few over the years but most display it beside their race number.
I do not know if that is correct but when you see a car with it you know they are special.

Perhaps we could get some others point of view on this.....

[Steve Holmes]

Are Historic Sports Sedans confirmed for the MG Classic John?

[John McKechnie]

Steve- yes we are confirmed and currently contacting everyone to make this a totally memorable event.
Those going are aware of noise levels and are dealing with this.

I am trying to locate someone involved with motor racing living on the North Shore that had a yellow/orange LJ Torana GTR , and was building it up for the Muscle Cars.
He sold the rolling body to Steve Bennenbroeke in about 1995.
Maybe somebody may remember this car back then, or even who owned it.
He cant remember the place, sure the car had been involved in competition , was stripped ready for full race conversion when he bought it. Was not complete with interior

944 S2 Porsche Historic Sport Sedan?

944 S2 Porsche Historic Sport Sedan?

I will stand to be corrected, but surely this is a nod to the driver, especially while the Marina is being finished

[John McKechnie]

seaqnmac27- Very perceptive and totally correct.
As an original Sports Sedan driver, and a racer since 1965, Graeme Park is racing this as an Invited Allcomer.
Marina will be back at its sizzling best at Hampton Downs in January.
