Old School and Vintage Hillclimb

[PACE]

This would be a great way of exercising our classic and vintage cars. Lets make arrangements with towns at the extreme north or south of cebu with a nice hill with a lot of twisties and do a hillclimb event. It will bring tourism to the town as well as revenue and attentions, a lot of fun for us but in a safe manner. What do people think?

[W108]

Agreed! Through the FACC I'm sure there will be more than enough participants to keep things interesting...

Green light on this one Sir Chris! I'd love to see a particular 911 in action...:P

I know some guys in the BimmerClub are setting up some nice Cafe Racers

[jpn]

hmmm....we have long been looking for a good venue to hold such event...someday it should be realized if we all cooperate...many are already showing interest..

whoever will be the one to make it happen I just hope it will not be specific to classic and vintange cause only a handful probably have such cars and it might be too risky for a hill climb event...mahal kaayo na mga cars and hard to find na......I am saying this cause I understand the hill climb event to be a timed trial race from point A to B and and not a paseo around the mountain roads.............

Believe it or not I actually prefer the E30 M3 for this one. But I've a feeling that the Blue Propeller will be seeing the tails of the gentlemen brawlers from Stuttgart through the twisties. The Hammer will likely take a pounding, in as much as I dread the thought. Hehe.

This indeed is a very interesting proposition, as not only would it allow us to exercise our cars, but highlight the towns sponsoring these events as well. Hope you guys can make this happen. A good outline of categories and properly spaced calendar of events will have all the enthusiasts wanting to sign up. I'll help in any way I can.

Thats great Dward

[norrissee]

Dward, pwede ko mu apply driver nimo? hehehe du.ol na bya ta ug balay, I'll drop by one of these days after I get settled in. Just transferred to Mandaue last week.

And back to topic, yes to the hill climb event. Maybe tie up with some of the car clubs? More sponsors = less money spent from the pockets of the participants.

OT:Hahaha mangapply man gani kog driver ni Sir Chris! Sure thing bro, cmon' over! Welcome to Mandaue!

BTT: Organizing this will be a hillclimb in itself, but it can be done. Organization, logistics and safety (especially spectator safety) would be major considerations. The locations have to be considered as well. Along with a ton of other things that need to be done of course. But it all begins with one step in the right direction.

[PACE]

No need to make it big right away. Lets do a small one to try it out. Manila AAP thru MSCC has offered to conduct a safety course as well as accreditation.

[jpn]

maybe we should ask AAP about safety requirements/regulations for the car....like are roll cages required? 4 point seatbelts required? and what other safety requirement are necessary?

[W108]

Absolutely Sir jpn...we'll need the whole kit and kaboodle on this one.
