National Rally 2022 Newsletter No 1
Well the dust has settled from the national rally in Maryborough along with the smoke from the East coast fires and the floods have receded. The Pop in to Maryborough Rally was such a great success the committee for the 2022 Dubbo Rally will not make an attempt “go one better” but concentrate on making Dubbo a different experience so it can be appreciated as an event as adding to the participants rallying experiences. Dubbo has been favoured by having had many road improvement programmes and its topography is best described as gentle rolling hills and plains and this will provide runs where reasonable average speeds can be obtained. The preliminary plans for the runs have identified that the most likely towns that will form morning tea stops and lunch stops which are not that far from Dubbo by the main roads but offer many alternate off highway routes for pleasant Model T driving experiences. We are planning to have 4 or 5 model Ts along with some modern cars and their crews make preliminary tests of the available runs in the week before the long weekend in October 2020 so a final selection can be made and detailing of the runs can commence. The response to the Rally 2022 Dubbo has been good, we have 10 potential entrants who have made an expression of interest payment and 16 entrants who have paid a full entry. Thank you to those entrants for their support. The next step in the rally price will be in June which is now just 4 months away so if you are going to take advantage of the early bird special get your entry in, as the payment must be in the rally Bank account before June the 30th to qualify. In newsletter 2 we will include a volunteer register and a form to indicate if you can assist with one or 2 of the many tasks that go into making a successful rally. We thank those that have already made offers of help and apologise that we not been organised enough to capture the many generous offers but if you can formalise your offers on receipt of the Newsletter 2, we would appreciate it. We have attached a copy the MODEL T FORD ROUND UP 2022 and ask you to be a participant in identifying the owner of a potential project or the re-roading of existing cars – we need your help. I have attached a tinkering tip which would qualify for the Shannon’s best restoration story (except I am on the committee) so if you come across a repair process on a car you are taking to Dubbo that needs broadcasting then enter it into the Shannon’s prize. Look forward to joining you on the road in Dubbo in 2022 Martin Whitehouse. Model T Ford National Rally 2022 Dubbo Entry Forms can be downloaded from the club website.
