Rallydrive Excel Day

[John C]

For Victorian competitors Peter Wrench has made his facility available as below, I have sent e mails to all those on Col's list and have had many replies If you are in Victoria and did not receive an email please forward your details to me by email or personal message

three cheers for Peter :clap::clap::clap:





Hi Guys and Girls
On Sunday April 13 th Peter Wrench can allow us to use the Rallydrive facility for testing and practice in our cars. We would have use of facilities from approx. 2.30 p.m

As our major sponsor along with Hyundai Genuine Parts , Rallydrive make their facility available free of charge. (Located in Bachus Marsh)

With the large gap between Round 1 and Rd 2 this date really fits in well

Peter has also offered to obtain a gourmet BBQ from the local caterer who he uses for his corporate days at a cost of $16 per head if we would like to have a meal together afterwards.

Could you all get back to me preferably by e mail ASAP with your ability to attend and wether or not you would like us to organize the meal.

A huge thank you to Pete Wrench and his team at Rallydrive for the chance to use his facilities today, great effort Pete

A very warm Excel welcome to the new competitors who were present for the first time today.

And equal thanks to Geoff Portman and Lisa for the expert tuition especially to the younger Victorian Excel guys and girls ( and a couple of old blokes who really enjoyed the ride Eh VicCol and Mr Doutch)

It was great to see a large turnout of interested people and to meet the guys and girls that are in the process of building even more Excel's, it all augers well for Victorian rallying into the future.

On behalf of all the Vic Excel Crews

Proudly sponsored by Rallydrive and Hyundai Genuine Spare Parts

Also big thanks to JC for getting it all together and for Geoff for making the effort to squeeze himself into my co drivers seat normally reserved for a person several feet shorter. Having someone like Geoff give some feedback about the driving and obviously enjoying himself was a real thrill. Well done to all involved. Great to see JC driving a Excel again he obviously hasn't lost any of his touch...
