Organising officials are required to conduct club events in 2017 including organising groups for our three rallies. Be a proactive participant in the sport. Contact the club executive and nominate which event you will be conducting in 2017.
So members with Classics on club rego can more easily attend Cars and Coffee or similar events let the Club Captain know so they can be calendared.
Reminder to re-join the GCTMC Inc. for 2017 before you go for a run in your Classic on club registration

Rising Australian driver Matt Campbell has won the Porsche Motorsport Junior Programme Shootout and is set to continue his ascent of the Porsche Motorsport Pyramid in next year's Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup. The 21-year-old from Queensland was selected from nine young drivers from international Carrera Cup and GT3 Cup Challenge series around the world after a rigorous two-day evaluation at Lausitzring in September. Campbell was deemed the best candidate and will now receive the lucrative scholarship, which awards him 200,000 Euros towards a position on the grid of the ultra-competitive Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup championship.

Had a coffee at Starbucks last week and there was a bloke there who didn t look at an iphone, tablet or laptop. He just sat there and drank his coffee like some psychopath! Went out to a bar in Broadbeach on New Year s Eve and had a few too many so I did the right thing and took a cab home from the taxi rank. Anyone want a cab? It doesn t fit in my garage. Got an invitation to attend drinks at a young friend s house recently. BYO iphone, tablet or laptop.
