TIGHE CAMS HILLCLIMB,
ROUND 2, Sunday, 17 May, 2009
The large crowd of spectators who came to Mt Cotton on May 17th for the 2nd
round of the 2009 Tighe Cams Hillclimb Series witnessed some excellent
competition in wonderful Queensland winter weather at our well-presented venue.
Highlights of the day included the appearance of Warwick Hutchinson's new
Formula Libre car which immediately impressed with its performance on its
maiden outing. Alan McConnell gave the appreciative crowd something to
really cheer with his sub 40s runs which resulted in his FTD. He also won
the Top Six.
Two records were broken, both in Historic categories. David Robinson broke
his class record in Class R and Vern Hamilton (Group Q) took 0.4s off his old
record to post a 42.86s in his 1974 Elfin 623.
