Street parade for hillclimbers
Whilst not a big field for our last outing in September, competitors did get value for money having a total of six competitive runs for the day’s completion. This kept most drivers on their toes to keep up with the speed of the final Hillclimb for the year at Mountain View.
This is not the final event for the club as our karts will take to the track in October. The North Coast Road Racers will also test their skills during October at Mountain View. The club will be having a party and street parade to celebrate our 60th Birthday. Our party will be at the South Grafton Ex-Servicemen’s club on Saturday night 31st October. Our Street parade on Sunday 1st November will be from the Pound Street car park to Mountain View and be well worth a look at 10am
