67 entries and counting as preparations on the hill continue!

 

Brett Hayward, Malcolm Oastler, Dean Tighe, Wim Janssen, Michael Barker and plenty more will be moving their OMSs, Dallara-Judds and Haywards up the hill at a frantic pace.  Here's hoping for good conditions to see them at their fastest!!

James, with that free plug, GCC better quickly ask Supercheap for some sponsorship of the AHC.

Mark Brunning has entered his ex Sean Sorensen Elfin 620B in the Historic Other class - I’ve got a good Elfin feeling !

That's Ron Hay (a long-time hillclimber).   The car is a modified Dallara chassis with a Synergy 2.4litre V8,  basically two 4 cylinder bike engines on a custom crankcase.  Synergy is based in NZ.

Wow! It's only three and a half decades since I last saw him...

Unbelievable to see he's aged probably 35 years in that time!

Malcolm’s quickest going into Sunday, the big boys bypassed the early cold drizzling morning conditions but got cracking after lunch when it warmed up.

Good to see Dave Mahon in the top 10. I raced Sports Sedans against him for quite a while.

Interesting towards the bottom Mark Homer two different categories and both 968 Porsche. Two cars? or same car in two classes?

An engine also used an Speedcars. From what I have read quite a good thing.

Mark Homer was running the same car in both classes.   Not sure how that complied with the CAMS AHCC regs but I guess he got double the runs at double the cost ......
