and giving them a run in VSCC events again, so if you have a pre-war car which hasn’t been
in an event in the last few years then 2017 could be for you.
Hugh Fryer will be maintaining an informal list of cars and drivers who intend to enter
events so contact him on if you wish to be part of this group and
receive updates. I’ll be keeping the information flowing to Vintage Metal as well.
The morning was completed with a demonstration of the Dyno by Bryan Scrivenor using the
Bartlett Special. It’s a great way to see whether your tuning for events is on track (so to speak).

30th Anniversary Dinner
The final event for the 30th anniversary year was a
dinner held on the 5 December 2016 at the
“Burswood on Swan Function Centre” overlooking
the river.
There were 110
members and guests present. The evening included
drinks and snacks before a three-course meal.
A slide show was displayed on a big screen put
together by John Napier-Winch and there was music
throughout the night.
Ian Fry and Ron Fabry were presented with life
membership for their years of hard work for the club.
Graeme Whitehead received the President's Award for
Significant Personal Effort and Max Gamble presented
Craig Bradtke with the Max Gamble Trophy.
More about the dinner can be found in From the
President on page 3.
It was a very enjoyable night for all present.
404 Concession Licences
Paul Bartlett recently attended the CMC AGM,
where representatives from the DoT explained the
new processes around the 404 Concessional Licence.
There has been a significant degree of consultation
with the CMC on this topic and that group is now actively involved in the process.
Paul has some copies of the Code 404 Information Booklet to post to interested members.
The main thing to be aware of with these changes is that the onus is still on the owner to
ensure that their car is used in accordance with the regulations. Specifically, be aware that if
you don’t pay your Club fees on time then you are driving an unlicensed vehicle.
Forms and FAQs are on the DoT web site, all dated December 2016. The E81 form is at:
