The VRCBC's April general meeting was actually a special visit to Ferrari Maserati of Vancouver (website). The Club members and guests who attended were too distracted by all of the beautiful new and pre-owned high performance cars on display to actually focus on any regular business agenda - so we didn't even try!
The few photos below don't do justice to these fabulous machines and the state of the art, multi-story facility on Burrard Street. It was a very enjoyable evening. A big thank you to General Manager Mark Edmonds and his team for hosting us.

Updated April 30, 2012: Thanks to Paul Bonner and Brent Martin for the additional photos.
The SCCBC hosted two full days of CACC-sanctioned racing at Mission Raceway Park Road Course on April 14th and 15th. The SCCBC named the weekend 'Robert Remembered' in memory of Robert Currie, who sadly passed away in February.
The first VRCBC REVS races of the 2012 season were held on the Sunday. It was great to see some new faces (see the photos below) and there was some excellent competition throughout the field in both afternoon races. The complete Vintage results are posted under the Race Results menu and are also available directly here.
The next REVS races will be during the May 12th - 13th 'Mother's Day Special' weekend. This will be a special double for us, with a Vintage qualifying session and two races on each of the Saturday and the Sunday.
