Grover To Oz
I read with interest that Martin Groves is going to contest a hillclimb in Australia in November....
It takes place using part of the famous Bathurst course running in a clockwise direction from Conrod Straight to Skyline... Be interesting to see how Britains No1 fairs against some no doubt very talented Australian hillclimbers.. |

Sure it is an XB and not a Judd?
A friend just told me it already has an Australian record under its belt. |

License to thrill!
A deal has been done to allow Martin to participate in the event. I understand he will be issued with a temporary Australian license but will not be elligible for the Australian Championship; mind you his co-driver should be a shoe in for the title on this short English style course!

Anybody know what a Wortmeyer SCV looks like and what it is powered by ? Dave |

I wish,
I wish I was going, and if anyone wants to sponsor me I still could.
![]() David Gould is travelling out with one of our onboard setups. So if they bolt it on correctly and press the button then we may get to see it. Richard |

Use Groves velcro
Imported by, supplied by, good guy.
Try Groves Velco, a brand that's sure to stick. [Have I gone to far..] ![]() |

It's this weekend coming
The Australian Hillclimb championship.
see the updates on www.hillclimbracing.com and www.2T4T.co.uk Will the Gould GR55 of Andrew Howell, co-driven by Martin Groves do well? Follow the hillclimbracing.com site for the updates, we will only add something later. Now that Scenalyzer has provided a solution to cutting up clips we are working hard on other things. And fireworks and cider..... Will they mix? ![]() Go on Gouldy...... |
