Historic Sandown is again looking to be a magnificent event.
The very best sports, racing and touring cars from yesteryear will be seen in action over the two days of competition - (three days if you count in Friday practice). Forty events, 400 Historic race cars and many of Australia's greatest motor racing personalities will be taking part.
There will be plenty of off-track entertainment as well including static displays, a spectacular Merlin aircraft engine that will burst into life at various times throughout the weekend and a collection of championship winning Cheetah racing cars built not far from the Sandown circuit. A special tribute will be paid to a very famous Australian, the late Tony Gaze who passed away on July 30. Squadron Leader Gaze was a Spitfire ace with the RAF in World War 2, was responsible for the establishment of the Goodwood motor racing circuit in England and was Australia's first Formula One Grand Prix driver.
The club has a display area booked for a limited number of spots.

Another study found Australians drink, on average, 22 gallons of alcohol a year.
That means, on average, Australians get about 41 miles to the gallon.
Kind of makes you proud to be an aussie.
