  • November 2017
    November 2017 Production Race Series at the First Round of the Summer Series – Hampton Downs Picture by Dave Goodwin P O Box 27063, Mt Roskill, Auckland, New Zealand 1440 Phone: (09) 620-9797 Facsimile: (09) 620-5247 Auckland Car Club’s Monthly Magazine – Race, Rally, Clubsport and more… PRESIDENT’S LETTER It has been a while since I put a spiel together for the newsletter and there is much to tell. We have had two successful race meetings of the Auckland car Club Summer series the first in September at Hampton Downs and the second in October at Pukekohe. Both Meetings were well attended, averaging around 90 competitors. At the first round we had the Rotary Racing Enthusiasts (RRE) for their first run with Auckland Car Club and we welcome them aboard. Due to a tight schedule for the day they combined with the Racing Saloon class and a very reasonable size grid was the result. We have our next round back at Pukekohe on the 9th of December and with all of the classes confirming their attendance for this one it should be a very reasonable turn out. Please remember entry into our events as a spectator is free so please come along and enjoy the day. The last weekend in January (Anniversary weekend - 27th and 28th) we have our first foray to Taupo, which we haven’t done for many years, and although our format isn’t finalised it looks like we will be doing races Saturday and Sunday along with some dual and multi car Sprints. The Club needs your support to make Taupo a successful event and if you are able to enter a car it would be appreciated.

  • MCC Newsletter There Was a Little History of Le Mans 24 Hours Races
    B Page 1 of 49 EDITORSPEAK… email: [email protected] Well what a month it has been since I last put fingers to keyboard, unparalleled in recent NZ history, that’s for sure. With no “real, live” motorsport, and none on the immediate horizon, the response of the wider motorsport community has been interesting to watch. There has certainly been much more use made of social media platforms like Facebook as people have retreated to their sheds to work on existing cars or projects, or simply had the time to potter through their archives and photos for interesting titbits. Pages such as Fleur Pedersen’s (Brian Greens co-driver for the non-rallyists) ABC of rallying have turned up some great stories and photos from the NZ rally scene, and others such as Old New Zealand Motor Racing continue to astound with historical commentary and photos that have largely been forgotten, or never been aired before. I am pleased to report that the MCC seems to have been one of the more active Clubs in terms of presenting its members with items of interest via Facebook during lockdown. Others, it seems, have just come to a full stop. It’s as if they have stopped caring about their members and posts have been few and far between. Perhaps they communicate by other means? One way of remaining engaged with our passion is through the various virtual race events / series that are taking place, and each has proven to be highly realistic and totally absorbing, despite my (admittedly biased) initial misgivings.
