2016 NEWS: New date for 2016 Masters

March 31, 2016 By Muscle Car Masters Leave a Comment

The Muscle Car Masters has a new slot on the racing calendar for 2016, the last weekend in October. The joint-venture partners, the ARDC and nextmedia Pty Ltd, announced late last year that the event will move from its Father’s Day slot to October 29-30 by popular demand.

The date change separates it from the venue’s 2016 V8 Supercars round as both meetings previously ran in close proximity. The move was welcomed by competitors, officials and motorsport enthusiasts, particularly those previously unable to attend the Masters due to Father’s Day family commitments.

2016 NEWS: New demo sessions for 2016

March 24, 2016 By Muscle Car Masters Leave a Comment

A revamped line-up of demonstration sessions will spice the 12th running of the nation’s most successful retro racing event.

Cars from the Australian 5.0-litre Touring Car Association will hit the track for a series of ‘spirited demos’. These are the earliest ‘Supercars’ – original machines from the 1993 to 2002 pre-Project Blueprint era in period liveries. Also new is a ‘Sports Racing Car Invitational’ session each day.

Invited cars come from the ranks of historic Sports Sedans, GT cars, plus Can-Am, Le Mans-style and Big Banger sportscars. Heritage Hot Laps will be rested for 2016.

2016 NEWS: A9X Nationals returns to Sydney

March 21, 2016 By Muscle Car Masters Leave a Comment

Main race day, Sunday October 30, will host the 2016 A9X Torana Club Nationals’ show and shine. It will be first time since 2005 – and the inaugural AMCM – that Sydney has hosted the A9X Nationals. Meantime, the Pit Straight Car Club Corral and Featured Muscle Marques display and parade will have twin focuses.

Ford’s contribution to performance heritage will be celebrated in the month the company winds up manufacturing in Australia. Meanwhile, Brock Commodore owners will mark the 10th anniversary of Peter Brock’s passing and 30 years since the VL Group A’s launch.

2016 NEWS: Minis to celebrate 50th anniversary

March 16, 2016 By Muscle Car Masters Leave a Comment

A special all-Mini race will be held to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Morris Cooper S’s win in the 1966 Gallaher 500 at Bathurst. That was when Bob Holden and Rauno Aaltonen led home no fewer than seven other Minis in the annual production car classic.

The anniversary race will draw from Group N Historic Touring Car ranks, meaning a busy weekend for ‘flying brick’ teams. Meantime, off the track, owners of Australian-built examples of the famous Cooper S are invited to display their cars in Pit Straight Car Club Corral.

2016 NEWS: Pit Straight Car Club Corral

March 14, 2016 By Muscle Car Masters Leave a Comment

It wouldn’t be the Masters without the Pit Straight Car Club Corral and its stellar line-up of classic Aussie muscle. Think Pacers, Chargers, GT and GT-HO Falcons, GTS Monaros and SL/R 5000 Toranas.

Drivers of road registered muscle cars are admitted free of charge to the Corral, located on the grass overlooking the main straight and starting grid. Groups are encouraged to park together and promote their club. Contact Phil Harrison at phil@ardc.com.au
