Winton Raceway Festival of Speed - August 11-12, 2012

Held over the August 11-12 weekend, the 'Festival of Speed' promises to be the biggest and most spectacular 'Festival' yet, with all the famous marques from this classic era featured at the meeting - from early Falcon GTs and Monaros, to Mustangs, Camaros, nimble Toranas and thundering A9Xs, to the turbo cars of the eighties.
Touring Car devotees of the Brock, Moffat, Bond and Geoghegan eras will be able to journey back in time to see tin-top racing as it used to be.

Organised by the Victorian Historic Racing register and again supported by Shannons, one of the highlights for the weekend will be the 'Rose City Touring Car Trophy' race for historic tourers from the 1950s to 1972. It will also feature a 'Top Ten shoot-out' for grid positions, followed by a 25-lap race with a mandatory pit stop.
The other touring car feature race is a planned Group C & A 'Trophy Race' for touring cars from early '70s to the early '90s. Entry in this event will be restricted to genuine Australian touring cars with authenticated racing pedigrees.

The meeting will also feature the very popular Group S sports and GT cars, including the fast and spectacular Corvettes, Shelbys and Pantera V8s that again will be challenged by a posse of Porsches.
