excitement
is building for Vero 2006 14-17 January 2006
January The organising
committee confirmed
that at the 31July entries were numbered over 960 with still some latecomers
due.
Entrants
come from
Australia,
Brunei, Canada, Hong Kong, Ireland, Japan, Great Britain and the United
States, not to mention every branch of the Club in New Zealand.
Over seventy Veterans and more than 350 in the Vintage class means that
with pre-war cars included, the bulk of the vehicles entered are over
60 years old.
All entrants will be contacted shortly with details of their Monte
Carlo start points and times as well as any other things they need to
know. Some routes may need to be re-allocated in places where there is
no further accommodation.
The day at Teretonga Park, while allowing the exercise of cars that wish
to use this famous race-track, will also be a great opportunity for all
entrants to meet in an informal picnic atmosphere without the distraction
of the general public.
There is a great variety of entries, rare and interesting and we have
been delighted with sagas of epic rebuilds and decades of work that will
culminate in this event. For more information Contact:
The Rally Secretary, PO Box 6070, Invercargill, New Zealand email: 2006rally@vcc.org.nz
