Important Information for Competitors & Spectators
Pets at Sandy Hook During Race Meetings
Although pets are welcome at Sandy Hook, the club would like to remind all pet owners, either club members or spectators, to be aware of their pets around other people at the event, to pick up after their pets and keep them suitably restrained for the well-being of both your pet and others. Please remember that we are using Bundaberg Regional Council’s grounds and pets are the responsibility of the owners.

- Constant vehicle movement to and from boat ramps including vehicles such as quad bikes that may not be as visible as larger vehicles
- Spectators walking around the site

Bundaberg Regional Council grounds are public areas and as such, only licensed drivers should be operating vehicles on the site.

With the restrictions beginning to be slowly lifted, there has been a few inquires about the 2020 Rum City Classic in July.
The event has been cancelled by council. At this stage it is still unknown when large crowds will be allowed to gather and due to the amount of work required to put this event on it would not be possible in such a short space of time.
The committee is committed to begin racing as soon as we can and will do our best to get a Fun Day happening as soon as we are able.
Watch this space for Updates!
Hi everyone
We have had a request from a new racer. He is looking for a set of overhead extractors for a 350 chev. Straight bolt pattern.
Let us know if you have anything.
Thanks
Kathy
