On the 4th Mayon our club calendar we had planned for another cruise. AusGarage on the same day are holding their second "A Day For Car Enthusiasts" at Pine Rivers Park.
We attended this event last year as a club and it was a great day. Big mix of different car clubs, trade stalls, good food and most of a great social day.
We are looking at changing the cruise to this and will do the planned cruise route for our next cruise.

Info from the Facebook event page:

It’s on again! After the great success of our first "A Day for Car Enthusiasts" event last year we’re holding another one on Sunday the 4th May. This event is all about bringing car events back to the basics. Cars, food, enthusiasts and a great venue for a Sunday afternoon.

We’ll have a DJ playing on the day with entertainment and gourmet food. This is a chance for all automotive enthusiasts from Muscle, Euro, Japanese, hot rods, motorsport and bikes to display their vehicle, sit down and enjoy great company.

There’ll be a VIP section with 300 spots available to display your car in the amphitheater amongst the trade stands and entertainment. VIP parking is $10 and available for pre order with any spare spots sold on the day. (VIP tickets pre order available from 01/03/14)

For those who aren't looking to purchase VIP tickets we will have the oval below the amphitheater open for general public. This will be just a gold coin per car entry collected at the gate.

Car clubs are strongly encouraged, AusGarage appreciates that car clubs are the backbone of the automotive community and we would love to section off a location for your club on the day.

Facebook Event page for anyone wanting to follow it: https://www.facebook.com/events/668495866541977/

Due to the available spots for VIP display (which is what we will be doing) if you would like to come along and have a great day and display your car and represent our club if you could please post your interest so we can get an idea on numbers to let James know how much room we require.

Well it is getting to that time of the year again where the first street sprint kicks off. This year as normal, the Gatton Street Sprints run by the Downs Motorsport Club will be the first of many.

The WRX Club of Queensland will be sure to have a great turn out, with many members entered to run at the two day event held on the streets of Gatton.

Anthony Bonnici will be there representing the club in his project car – a supercharged Commodore. Michael McMillan will be also making an appearance in this Evo 9 and will again be looking to continue his run of consecutive top 10 finishes.

Our club president will have his newly restored STi out and looking for a strong performance to back up from a good 2013 season. Steve Faulks and his STi will have his eyes firmly on a top 10 finish, despite not having run the event in the last 4 years due to car issues.

The main drawcard for the club and the event will be to see if Nev Scott and reproduce the speed that he has shown in the previous three Gatton's and become the first person to win the Gatton Street Sprints 4 years in a row.

Come on out to Gatton on the 15th and 16th of March and enjoy the cast of 130+ cars running.
