Hi everyone,
Counting down the weeks… Hope your cars are all getting a good clean.
We are planning on meeting up on the morning to put the windscreen stickers on,
The carpark at Greenlane Countdown/McDonalds (quickbrekkie too)
REMEMBER THERE IS 2 ROADS OFF GREENLANE EAST TO ACCESS THE
RACECOURSE. IF TRAFFIC IS BACKED UP AT THE FIRST, USE THE SECOND SET OF
LIGHTS
There is now going to be a large Marquee on the Leger Lawn, so the USA & Japanese Clubs have
been shuffled over. There will be marshals on both areas to help the clubs set up. Access to the
areas remains the same. The map on the website will be updated.

With the state of Emergency in Auckland and the need to be prepared for a cyclone, the Ellerslie committee have made the call to postpone Sunday’s show until 23rd April.
The run on Saturday will proceed at this stage.
