Winton Motor Raceway

FESTIVAL OF SPEED LONG TRACK WINTON HISTORIC RACING Featuring Rose City 10,000 for Formula 5000s Invitation Group N with Rolling Start & Pitstop

Dear Competitor,

If you were at Winton’s long track ‘Festival of Speed’ last year you will know how good it was. If you weren’t, you will have heard of its success.

Well, here is another chance to become part of this fabulous event.

The second Long Track Historic Winton will be held on August 13 & 14 and again will be run by the Victorian Historic Racing Register and Winton Motor Raceway.

It will feature some innovations guaranteed to excite spectators and enhance the driver experience.

The feature race will be a re-enactment of the famous ‘Rose City 10,000’, for Formula 5000s which was famously won by former World Champion, James Hunt back in 1978. Now, the big question is – who will be the driver to have the bragging rights?

For the 5000’s, Winton has always been a very technical track, made more so now than in 1978, because it has been lengthened and the three straights mean the ‘big bangers’ can reach a decent speed.

This year we are having 30 minutes for practice and qualifying so as to sort the field and an 8 lap race for all competitors to help the F5000 drivers ‘get their eye in’. The Sunday will see a 20 lap race divided into two starts of 10 laps with a one hour break between the starts.

The combined finishing places will decide the overall winner of the ‘Rose City 10,000’. For further information contact Jay Bondini on 0438 438 093.

A second feature will be an invitation 20 lap race for Group N touring cars – The ‘Rose City Touring Car Trophy’ for cars under and over 3 litres.

To add to the excitement there will be a rolling start and a pitstop – a mini endurance race guaranteed to provide plenty of excitement.

For added interest there will be a top 10 ‘shoot out’ to establish the top grid positions for the 20 lapper. To be considered for this event all competitors need to do is tick the additional box on the entry form.

NOTE: Group N will still have a normal three race card for the meeting.

Division 2 Regularity is back in the program. 1

Invited regularity drivers for Division 1 and 2 have previous competition experience at club level events and/or regularity trials.

Categories for the ‘Festival of Speed’ will be:

 Division one regularity & invited cars. (including race cars with no log books).  Division two regularity & invited cars.  Group N over 3 litres.  Group N under three litres.  Group Sc with separate Sa & Sb races.  Group M & O Sports & Racing and Formula Vee  Group J, K & Lb.  Formula Ford Fa, Fb, Fc.  Formula 5000  Group Q & R sports & racing.  Porsche demonstration laps commemorating sixty (60) years of Porsche in Australia.

Another feature of the 2011 ‘Festival’ will be the feature of Ford competition cars complete with the attendance of light weight 427 ci (7 litre) Galaxies on track.

Despite the 2010 ‘Festival’ being announced later in the year, it attracted some 230 entries. For 2011 the organisers expect to see a field of top level cars reach more than 300, plus demonstration, show and parade cars.

It will be an AASA event and both CAMS and AASA licences can be used, but CAMS log books and C of Ds are mandatory for racing events. No AASA vehicle passports will be accepted.

Once again the event forms part of the VHRR’s championship which includes the evergreen Phillip Island and Sandown historic events.
