A full complement of spectacular races, car park displays and a marketplace of motoring and biking-related goods are just some of the things racegoers will be treated to across the last weekend of May.
Organised by the Austin 7 Club, president Len Kerwood said that Historic Winton would once again see competitors, motor enthusiasts and motorsport fans flock to Winton Motor Raceway for one of Australia’s most popular and iconic historic motorsport events.
“We are thrilled to be back again with another weekend with fun for all the family,” Kerwood said.
“This historic race meet has been around for so long now the we are seeing third and fourth generations competing and attending as well as quite a lot of first-timers.”
Kerwood said a new race had been placed on the 2023 program — a Regularity* for N Class “tin tops” touring cars up to 1965.
“This will be staged for the first time and is expected to add to the spectacle,” he said.
“The traditional highlight of the Sunday Parade returns, which always has crowds enthralled.
“We get a lot of requests to join in the Sunday Parade because everyone wants to do of lap of Winton Motor Raceway in their ‘pride and joy’ car, motorbike, bus, fire engine or other mode of land transport.
“Vehicles are selected for the parade on Sunday morning with invitations placed on windscreens.”
Kerwood said parade participants were selected based on the number of vehicles in an anniversary group, rarity and presentation.
The list of anniversary display vehicles to be on show will be announced in the new year.
