Happy new year! This year we have a jam packed calendar of events planned for everyone.

To begin with, our Western Australia Lotus Club Sprint Championship starts soon. It will be contested over seven rounds, with the best five counted towards the trophy.  To participate please enter into the Speed Event Series for 6 of the rounds and the other will be held by the TSOA club.  Details will be emailed to members and details posted on our local Facebook pages.

This year I have also planned Go Karting (see Calendar), a visit to the Motorsport division of the ECU Joondalup campus, Ford Museum visit, Gingin All British Car Show and El Caballo – All British Auto Extravaganza plus some more!

Driver Training will be held for those interested in honing their track skills.  Also, Les is planning a weekend tour of the South West so stay tuned for details once finalised.  Some dates are unknown but check out our calendar for those dates that are known.
