Payments for this event must be made to the 2CV Racing Club via bank transfer and must be received by Friday 10th October at the latest.

We hope to see you there!

So, (very) advanced notice!

The dinner dance is planned to be at Westmead once again next year. They did a great job this year. I think many people shared my view that, with a smaller choice of food, the quality increased significantly. However, the only available date is 8th November.

I realise this is a week earlier and clashes with the Race of Remembrance which will cause issues for a few of you but the only other available dates were Fridays which is no use for us.

The date is provisionally booked. Any comments, views, complaints, please post them here asap for consideration.

I want to confirm the booking prior to Christmas please.

Thanks all.

So, invites will be emailed out to all current club members. However, for those of you who aren't members, here are the details:

Hi all

Once again, the dinner will take place at the Westmead Hotel on 16 November 2024.

I wanted to give you all advanced notice of the date and, more particularly, advanced notice that bookings will open (and close) somewhat earlier this year than previously so I can get the relevant details to the hotel in good time this year whilst giving all of you more time to be able to book etc.

Please don't worry, payment will be deferred for as long as I reasonably can.

Anyone have a set of rims they wish to sell?

Hello all. I trust you all got home safely and are recovering from another long weekend. Many congratulations to our 24 hour winners, new driver's champion and all those on the podium.  A great season with twists, turns, ups and downs.  Many thanks also have to go to those who have worked tirelessly to make this all happen.

Now that it's nearly September, it's time to start thinking about the dinner. 

I'll get the application forms out to you all next week but just a reminder for now about the date. 

The long awaited amended rule.

1. It is different from what it currently is and changes take effect on 1 June 2023.

2. It is not the same as the changes brought about in our recent enduro in the SRs.

I'll leave you to read it.
