Golden Springs 2009
Event Report
Woolbridge Motor Club's Golden Springs Car Trial became the season opener after Falcon's Southern Autos was snowed off last month. The morning rounds were held in ideal trialling conditions after rain the previous day, but when rain started over the lunch break the event was to see a marked increase in points incurred.
Most newsworthy was perhaps the unfortunate retirement of 2008 champion Dave Oliver's Imp during round 3 when the diff gave up, but on a much more positive note we should commend 2008 Drive contender Julian Archard for taking his first 1st in Class award ahead of 2 former champions! Co-driving event winner Garry Preston's Fiat 127 Julian kept his cool to fend off some very seasoned competitors.
