Totally gratuitous I know but I’m the Editor so whatcha gonna do..?!

Editor’s Note
G’day all.
As you may or may not have noticed November has
been a pivotal month for the club (even though quite
possibly the greatest ever event in Central Victorian
Motorsport History technically occurred on the 31st of
October) so to celebrate this huge occasion I present
to you the “Gift Horse Rides” Celebratory Collectable
Issue. So collectable in fact it will be limited to one online copy but for a fee I’ll be happy to run
off some prints of the front cover so anyone interested can hang them on their wall. Many
years from now when you tell your grandchildren this story you can point to your poster and
tell ‘em, “I was THERE.”
Gone far enough yet? Yeah, I think so. Anyway, besides the obvious we had the November
Test and Tune on the 31st of October which went OFF and Cerberus Car Club ran VCAS Rd 11 at
our track November 1st until the weather intervened.
Results for the Club Championship have been finalised with our final Test and Tune for the year
coming up in December being for fits and giggles only, and maybe some shakedown runs for
those of us planning to have a crack next year… Congrats to all our winners and any
incriminating details from the Xmas Party/Presentation Night will
come out in the December issue. In the meantime, here’s the
Race Report and some pics of some other stuff that happened…
Race Report, Melbourne Cup Weekend
Saturday October 31st& Sunday November 1st 2015
Well we had it all really, sun, wind, rain, flies, dust, mud and an
awesome weekend.
Rob
www.SwanHillSportingCarClub.com.au
Saturday saw a great turn out of people with some 38 entries and 33 passengers and that was a new stat
to me. I thought it was impressive as this is where people get a firsthand look at what we do. Speaking
of stats how is this one, 418 cars were
started. Man that is impressive. We only
started racing at 1.00 pm, stopped at 3.30 for
a break, started again at 4.00 pm and had all
but worn the field out by 6.20 pm with no
dramas to speak of. Getting back to the 418
starts, x 2 = 836 and that is Kms my friends.
Now would you think that a poor old dirt
track would handle 836 Kms of every starter
trying to destroy it and still be in pretty good
nick for Round 11 VCAS the next day? The
track just laughed at us and said “is that all
you got?” and we just whimpered and said,
“yes.”
Neil Albert and myself were both Club Chiefs on the day as we both have brand new shiny officials’
tickets. I think we did the job with ease. We both got to race, just not against each other (we only race
the clock don’t we Neil?) He showed me a big black mark on his bumper and said it was from the last
time we did.
The big news of the day really had to be the Gift Horse - Robert Goff, car 308. While he did end up with
some very respectable times he finished every lap and did not have to be towed at all!!! For those of
you who have followed the Gift Horse journey this was a big development.
The Holy Sh__ part of the day would have to be
Jobbo - Kelvin Jobling - coming off the track at
full noise, back sweeper, inside lane. Drove
straight off the corner, around the back of it
and back on, actually left the ground for at
least 8 metres.
New pants should have been required as that part of the track is fast; for a normal person 50k,
adventurous 60K, aggressive 70K, borderline nuts 80K and anything over that, either very good, lucky or
crash....................
(Dreamtime coming up – CG)
www.SwanHillSportingCarClub.com.au
.........this all begins after coming up from the start, you have just nailed it off the line, grabbed 2nd and
most likely your right foot is still trying to bend the floor. Hold onto it as you take that first slight left
turn bringing you back onto the original track, the twisty left and right (there was some pedal and wheel
work as well, but you need to work that out) then you get a breath – but it’s not much of a breath, the
car is still sliding - then left again, you are starting to feel like a ball in a bag, swish right again and then
here it comes, the hairpin to the left from where the trouble begins.
Hey, but don’t be fooled kids, you can throw it off the track anywhere!
Nail it nicely, slide all the way round just using the throttle enough not to go off to the right or
overcorrect it and spin, but there is a right hander now. You come round, almost get straight and think
what the hell, flat out! The floor is bending, change up to third, foot still bending the floor and hang on.
It starts trying to throw you off the bend, a big sweeping left hander that seems to go forever, it is
banked and all the way round the faster you go the more the back of the car is trying to pass you drifting
up the bank. Oh, and if you think now would be a good time to slow you would be wrong because here
comes the back of the car; the time for slowing has passed. Only two choices now, make the sharp left
(using speed table above to describe yourself) or use a large amount of brake and try to retake control
because about now you no longer have any. No
matter which one you chose you’ll know
you’re alive, for sure your heart rate will
tell you! By now you are either thinking
“how good was that”
or “I will just do
something different
next time”. But stop
dreaming, there is still
over ½ a lap to go yet
and I bet you are still
trying to bend the
floor. Sorry, got a bit
carried away there…

Back to the day, Jobbo did get a lot of runs in and managed some very quick times.
The North family brought along a new weapon, sorry Neil Albert but it was a Lancer EVO 1. To make
Neil happy they also brought along a Hyundai but that Lancer was quick. The thing just jumped off the
line and was five car lengths in front of you before you could get traction, a very nice car to watch. Well
done Richard, you made it look easy. Andrew Murdoch was the one on the day and you know it is neat
when all you could report is dust.
I was able to pull quickest 2 wheel drive but only just, as Robert Field
in that Nissan Bluebird was giving it one hell of crack. And man, for a
2 wheel drive it got the power to ground and took off from the line
very well. I speak from “the lane next to him perspective”, I would
have thought almost as good as the EVO.
One car that really stood out was Brian
Newton is his Honda Civic. That car not
only looked great in the white and yellow
paint job but man the sound it made
going around the track was just fantastic
and he also was very quick.
Resident Class D bandit Darby Anderson
had the goods again with another class
lead. I am calling him a bandit because I
had not really noticed that he had taken
that class so many times during the year,
and after working on club points the light was shining on Darby very brightly. Well done Darby. He has
done a great job on the little things with his car and not said much about it at all.
www.SwanHillSportingCarClub.com.au
Father and son Shane and Blair Clue also got to battle it out for several laps side by side and watching
them coming over the finish line you needed the computer to know who got who, they were so close.
Great to watch.
Steven Barr was sharing with Barry Middleton in Barrys’ Lancer. He was going very well, in fact even
coming in ahead of Jack Hawkins in his Hyundai and Jack was very quick all weekend. I would not be
surprised if Jack did the most
laps for the whole weekend
and congrats Jack you are 2015
Junior Champ.
Mr Dust (Adam
Smith) found that
road tyres on the
back do not hook up
as well as rally tyres
but he kept burning
the rubber off them
while still managing
to have a great
weekend. He did
live up to his name.
www.SwanHillSportingCarClub.com.au
Neil Albert managed a great
day and passed points leader
for Class P Rodney Stevenson,
who was at 71 points and Neil
70 coming into this round.
With his times slowly
improving all day he would
have been smiling at the end.
Reg Johnson also had a
great weekend and did an
awesome job in his Holden
Nova. Very good to watch.
Glen and Anita King-Gee
had two cars out, Glen in
the yellow Lancer and Anita
in the silver Coupe. Both
had a ball, doing a large
number of runs with Glen
Class P winner and Anita very happy to be pulling her times down. I went with her for a few laps and
she is not afraid to have a go. For her second time out, one hell of an improvement. Good job Anita and
look out Glen.
But the ones that put on the best show were
the boys from Shepparton in the Toyota
Celica, James Thompson, Justin Aylett and
James Thomson.
I hope that was right and not a typo but that car, they give it heaps all day and apart from pushing a tyre
off, it took it. It would also have to have won the award for the most body roll and most likely from
inside the car, most fun. Was great to see, just sorry I did not get the chance to talk to you guys on the
day.
www.SwanHillSportingCarClub.com.au
A BIG THANK YOU to Coburns Earthmoving. Gary Saville gave up his time and truck to help us out
with the water, which even though we got rained out on the weekend we needed it until that happened.
Everybody below deserves a mention, all did great things and I hope had a good time. I know I did.

Sunday 1st of November
VCAS Round 11 run by Cerberus Car Club at Swan Hill
Twenty eight competitors took part in the Sunday event with entries from around the state, 8 of those
from Swan Hill. We did not do too badly, I managed a win in Class E and 4th overall, Steve Barr won Class
J and 12th overall and Glen King-Gee winning Class P and 20th overall, not a bad day for the Swan Hill
Club.
With 179 car starts, the day got underway at 10 am no problems and by 12.30 almost all had done the 4
runs required to score. Then a lunch break with after lunch being declared a “just go for it” session,
after everyone had done their laps 1, 2, 3 and 4. But the big fella upstairs decided that he would make
it rain and it bucketed down for a short time. Lunch was done,
so out they went in nice clean cars and back they came
50KGs heavier and covered in mud. But the drivers seemed
to love it. Just as the track was drying out, down she came
again but this time there was just no control. It looked
like that day a few years back when James Courtney
won the V8 Supercar championship in the rain in
Sydney where there were cars going off
everywhere, and the day was done.
Now the sad case of the day, the Nissan of Rob and Greg Field bent a shock and by the time it was fixed
the day had just closed down with the rain. Geoff had only come up Sunday and did not even get a drive
at all.
www.SwanHillSportingCarClub.com.au
Sorry I am a bit light on for info here as I did not see much. For me the day was: one lap, park the car as
I thought I needed some fuel, go get some tools for the Fields in the hope of getting them going, have a
chat around the pits, look at the time and it’s 12 something. The call comes over the PA, “if you have
not done your 4 laps yet, do them now”, so went out and blasted 3 more laps, one after the other.
Almost not too dissimilar to the description in Saturdays story, parked the car, huge grin!!! The track
had some major black spots on it and that was that, well done to Cerberus Car Club for the day.
You know the amazing thing was the track should have been trashed with the wet but on inspection the
day after I have to say it looks pretty good, there are still some big puddles but they will be gone by
December 13th . After a six week break I could be getting mighty twitchy, how about you??
Well done and thank you to all that helped on the weekend and the week leading up to it. I was quite
amazed at how many helped, and performed in roles they have not done before. It all went so well. We
seemed to do it easy. Great work, great Club.

The bloke with his back to you can give
plenty of pointers regarding coming into
a corner too hot… eh, Jobbo..?
Tips and Tricks
We got to see a couple of tyres off the rim this weekend.
Tubes are cheap insurance.
Now driving into a corner, if you come in too hot the car is
going to go all over the place when you try and exit the corner
(I can vouch for this – Ed). While you may hang onto it and get
round the result is not that tidy or quick. But if you slow before
entry and then gently bring the throttle back on you can start
to use some of that car control you have been losing from
coming in too fast.
Also do not be afraid to go up to any driver you think could help you and ask either to go for a lap with
them or for them to go for one with you; you could be pleasantly surprised with the results.

Editors’ Note 2.0
Now all the formalities are done, I can announce
the formation for next year of the Gift Horse
Racing team!!! Yes, hot on the heels of the
Original Gift Horses’ slightly-less-than-stellar debut
comes Gift Horse 2 – Moooovin’ Along (this name
was NOT my idea – Ed). In keeping with GHRs’
tighter-than-a-fishes-butt tradition GH2 also came
to us for very, very little – like nothing – therefore
we can’t lose. Mrs Ed has laid claim to a late ‘80s
FWD Celica – only just off the road, quite a little
goer if you can look past the fact it’s driven from
the wrong end by a motor with half the correct
amount of pots. Only time will tell if her right foot
can keep up with her mouth… …STAY TUNED

The CAMS Accredited Official licensing
structure has two parts: Graded Officials
Licences and Non Graded Officials
Licences.
Graded Officials Licences have six grading
levels and are available to all CAMS
Accredited Officials to achieve. Non
Graded Officials Licenses have two types:
Specialist Licence holders are those that
hold professional qualifications and are
registered medical service providers.
Appointed Licence holders are those that
have been appointed by the management of
CAMS.
The diagram below shows the licence
pathway and the available disciplines in
which to specialise at Bronze level. Each of
the disciplines in blue have an associated
training module, as does General Official
(Introductory Module), Club Chief and
Silver level. For more information on
training modules, visit Training.
An official may hold different levels for

Reminders
Race Day Clothing.
Drivers need to be aware that there are minimum standards for clothing on race day and that
clothing standards are part of the scrutineering process. That means that if you are not dressed
in your race gear when the car is being scrutineered, then you will have to produce what you
are wearing. Below is a summary of what can and cannot be worn when racing. If these
standards are not met then you will not pass scrutineering and will not be able to race.
Helmet Must meet Australian standards. In good condition. No cracks, dents or deep scratches and it cannot be painted. The lining must be in good condition. Fasteners need to be in good condition.
Clothing Drivers and passengers must be dressed in clothing that covers them from neck to ankle to wrists. The clothing can not be nylon. For example, long sleeved Visy tops cannot be worn.
Footwear Footwear can be either shoes or boots. Both need to have a leather upper but can have elastic sides. For example, pull on work boots are ok but nylon sneakers are not. Leather upper sneakers/runners are ok.

Club Apparel.
Polo Tops, Sweats and Hoodies are now available to order from Blue Sky in Swan Hill with club
logo. Please allow adequate amount of time for them to take enough orders to do a run. Prices
for the clothing will depend on the size. Logos are available for embroidery on the back (large)
and on the front.
General Official’s Course- the club needs more Official’s. The first step in the process is to
complete a General Official’s Course. Can you please make contact with Lynne Paynter who will
advise C.A.M.S. and start the ball rolling.
