Well, the event is happening on the 17th July, in Avcoa (Northwest of Melbourne).
An excellent course exist, with a mix of shire roads, forest roads, both of which have some tight twisty stuff & fast flowing sections.

With just under 80 competitors, it will be a great field. We just need the
Volunteers to make this event happen.
The Event will commence and finish in Avoca, with the post event social function and a champagne presentation to the provisional winners.
With a number of accommodation venues within a short distance of the Event start/finish/headquarters we recommend reviewing
Avoca Community Website - Home or
Pyrenees Shire Council Home Page for a list of place you can stay and enjoy a great weekend in the Pyrenees.
The event would like to acknowledge and thank all the people and organisations that have contributed to making the rally possible, including the Pyrenees Shire, Avoca Police, Avoca CFA, Regional Ambulance services, the Department of Sustainability & Environment, and the many volunteers from inside and outside Car Club RMIT who are giving up their time to allow this event to happen.
Thanks,
