AutObarn Gympie Noosa Hillclimb Results 26th & 27th July 2014.
This Hillclimb was once again proudly sponsored by the AutObarn store at Gympie. Thanks must also go to the organizing committee of the Noosa Beach Classic Car Club for a well organized event.
This was the first Hillclimb at Noosa that none of the cars had issues over the entire weekend with just a few people glancing the walls on their runs. The tow truck driver had one of the quietest events in memory not having to be used all weekend.
