Historic Winton is Australia’s largest and most popular all-historic race meeting. Now in its 36th year, the event is shaping up to be one of the biggest yet with over 400 historic cars and motorbikes primed for action -- some dating back to the 1920s.
Conducted by the Austin 7 Club, in conjunction with the Historic Motorcycle Racing Association of Victoria, Historic Winton will this year include a tour on Friday May 25th, which will run from the Benalla Art Gallery and conclude with a Show & Shine display outside the Benalla Civic Centre.
The Shannons Classic Car Park, open Saturday and Sunday, will feature a number of car and bike club displays, this year including pre-war sporting Rileys. Owners of special-interest cars or bikes are invited to attend.
On Sunday, a display of historic commercial and military vehicles and pre-1975 utility vehicles will dominate the competition paddock, organisers offering a giveaway pack to the first 200 utility entrants and trophies to owners of Aussie Utes of special interest. And these aren’t the only giveaways…
