Results Queensland Hillclimb Championships – Mt Cotton 2010

QHC HILLCLIMB Results 5th & 6th June 2010.

Once again the Queensland Hillclimb Championships were blessed with the best winter weather that Queensland has to offer.

With 75 people entered and ready for a great weekend of hillclimbing. Saturday’s practice had a few highlights and just a many lowlights one of which was the crash of Douglas Barry’s Lola as he went through the finish line, the result of this crash had 3 wheels torn off the chassis and the car was damaged and unable to be repaired to get it ready for Sundays official runs, but I am sure that Douglas will get the car fixed soon. One of the other mishaps that occurred on the Saturday was the Mazda MX5 of Desley Collins who rolled as she came out of the 2nd loop, up the bank then over on to the roof. Desley was Ok but the car was badly damaged.
