Sixth Vintage Race Weekend of the 2024 Season
Posted: October 10, 2024
The weather was perfect for the Vintage racing on the Sunday of the SCCBC’s ‘Wet Leaf Classic’ / CACC #5 October 5-6 race weekend at the Speed Fanatics Motorsport Course at Mission Raceway Park. This was the sixth IWE-REVS points event for 2024 for VRCBC members.
The VRCBC always say: ‘The Cars are the Stars!’ and ‘Vintage means Variety!’ and this weekend proved it! The Vintage entry included in (approximate) alphabetical order, an Austin ‘Big’ Healey, four BMWs ( a 2002, two 325is, an E30) a Camaro and a Corvette, six Datsuns (a 1200, two 510s, three 240Zs), a Ford Focus SVT, a Honda Civic, a Mazda Miata, a MGB, a (tube chassis) Pontiac Grand Am, two Porsches (a 911S, a 911RSR), a Triumph (Dolomite) 2000, and a Volvo 142S. This is why Vintage racing is so much fun to take part in and to watch; the cars are so different and everyone has someone to race with.
The Vintage results are available on this website under Race Results (here) and the full weekend results are available on the SCCBC website (here). Brent Martin took his usual great photos of the on-track action. You can see some of them below and the rest on his website (here).
Our REVS Sunday Vintage races are part of the full weekends of road racing organized by the Sports Car Club of BC (SCCBC) and sanctioned by the Confederation of Autosport Car Clubs (CACC). Check out the full season schedule on the SCCBC website Schedule page (here). There is only one weekend left! Time flies when you’re having fun!
Our last Vintage races are on the Sunday of the SCCBC’s ‘Fall Finale’ / CACC #6 race event over the October 26 – 27 weekend. Registration for both drivers and volunteers is open. And remember, if your racing car isn’t ready, be like Gunther Ruppel and volunteer to work on a turn! The links are on the SCCBC web site (here).
