PRESIDENT LYNN CUTTLE Welcome to July 2020, Well our challenging year is continuing, unfortunately we are still unable to have our AGM this month with the Manningham still not open. We have had nominations for all positions which is fantastic, but as previously advised in last month’s magazine the nominations will stay open until 5pm Friday 10th July 2020. President – Lynn Cuttle Vice President – Rhiannon Philpot-Hale Secretary – Vicki Curry Treasurer – Gordon Ledwidge Membership – Aiden Peart Editor – Mason Peart Motorkhana – Lucas Thorpe (Media and Articles), Stewie Stevenson (Attend Meetings) Rally – John Patterson Racing / Speed – Callum Wright Autocross – Russell Seabrook If you would like to nominate for any of these positions then please let Vicki know and then we can arrange an election. At our last committee meeting it was decided that this year there would not be any NCCA competition awards as there has not been a full season of competition to justify / qualify due to Covid 19. Looking forward to being able to have a club night soon. Stay safe and healthy everyone, hope to see you soon. PS – Remember when we can catch up, bring someone else in the car with you so you have company for your trip both ways, it’s then a far more fun night for everyone.

SECRETARY VICKY CURRY Hi Everyone, Well, just as I thought that we would be able to get together and meet up in person, my dreams were crushed. So, now we just have our mag and Facebook pages to communicate through. I do hope you are all keeping safe and staying clear of the dreaded COVID-19. Hopefully we will be able to meet up sooner rather than later. Our usual venue has advised us that they will not be opening to the public before 1st of August. This means that our AGM will have to be conducted via email and snail mail. If anyone wants to stand for a position on the Committee PLEASE let me know prior to the 10th of July. You can fill out the online form or post me the paper copy that is included in this magazine. I will then email all members and advise of nominations. If there is a need for a vote I will advise via email. I will then tally results and post to members via email and in the next magazine. Well, with restrictions for meeting of people now being scaled back, I am not sure if the next couple of events that are scheduled will be going ahead. Best you all go to the appropriate websites and check out for updates. I do know that at this stage our event in September is still going ahead. However, there will be strict conditions for entrants to follow, and no spectators. If you need to contact me my email is curryinc@bigpond.com Keep safe all

AUTOCROSS RUSSELL SEABROOK (FROM AUSTRALIAN AUTOX CHAMPIONSHIP FACEBOOK) ** AUSTRALIAN AUTOCROSS CHAMPIONSHIP IS INTRODUCED** 2021 is shaping up to be a very exciting year and our plans are to run a National AutoX championship across 7-8 rounds. Each round will be a two day format with a 2-3km course. It will be open to NR licence level with high specification cars for Open 4wd, PRC 4wd, Open 2wd and SXS ORV's. The championship is fully sanctioned and supported by MSA.
MOTORKHANA VACANT (FROM FACEBOOK) " Group5 Rd4 will be run (weather permitting) by NCCA on Sunday July 19th at Werribee as a G5 Khanacross. Sup Regs and Covid-19 plan are in with MA at the moment and I hope to release them this weekend / early next week. VKC and non G5 club competitors welcome to come along and blow cobwebs out as a T&T khanacross day too. The event after will be on August 1st. It will be a combined VMC / G5 motorkhana run by FCCV/TCCA/FFCC at Metec on concrete at Kilsyth. It will be more expensive than normal, with a $40 ($20 junior) entry fee structure given the cost of this venue, but entry will include both G5 and VMC entry for the same one price. Sup Regs should be out early July. " ** COVID RESTRICTIONS ARE IN PLACE FOR THESE EVENTS. CHECK THE MA RETURN TO RACE DOCUMENT FOR UP TO DATE INFORMATION**
