Victorian Off Road Championship at Monza August 9th       Wrap up soon

Congats Simon, Chantelle & Dom plus all those who help to make this such a great event. Much of the praise though has to go to Simon for a fantastic job. Simon was out at Monza for over a week preparing the track, cleaning up & making sure we retain the trophy for the best round of the year again. Without members like Simon, who go the extra mile, this would not be the great club it is. It is efforts like his and others that makes the Rovers the envy of most other clubs. Well done Simon & family. More to come soon.

Level 1 Coaching for Juniors

Brian Nunn and myself are now Level 1 coaches for Juniors. This means we can take Juniors for their compulsory 5 hours to renew their MA licence and kids just starting out (Kick Start Program). We will try and co-ordinate with practice days for the yearly 5 hour licence renewal requirement but we will arrange a separate day from time to time solely for coaching. All coaching and associated log book signing is FREE to all financial Rovers Members. If you need more info ring Dasher (Brian Nunn) 0407846254 or Neale 0427334186

To race you must be a Financial Rovers Member, have a MA licence or buy a one dayer (5 Hour tuition applies for Juniors) on the day but if you are looking to do the full 6 it is cheaper to get a MA one.

Kangaroo Rally 2008       

The Kangaroo Rally numbers were a little disappointing but the fact there was a long weekend just before it, the Grand Prix on the same weekend and Easter the following could explain the low numbers.
It created a lot of talk amongst fellow Ralliers but next year we will get in early with our date. Winners and sponsor will be on as soon as I get them.

Vic Off Road Series Linton

Man what a weekend. Perfect weather, perfect track, perfect conditions, perfect organization, perfect preparation & perfect catering. Now what's one word that would describe this event?????? I've got it, AWESOME and I don't use that word lightly (Just ask my kids) but, for once, it is the only word capable of describing this weekend. As a club we did ourselves proud and as such one person doesn't usually get singled out above all others but in this case much of the credit has to go to Andrew Flood (Floody). I'm well aware he had help varying from lots to a little (It all helps) but in all honesty it just wouldn't have happen without him, at least to the high standard that this event reached. It is rare that all you hear is praise but that's exactly what happened here. It's a credit to the club and we can be proud of ourselves. As for the racing in was incredible. I don't know the actual results but I do know that a few Rovers boys trophied. If you didn't get out there YOU MISSED OUT BAD!
