Craig and Sherrie’s second annual classic car Lakeside lunch and lap run

Hello everyone. Queensland Raceway Lakeside Narangba logo
It’s that Lakeside fever time of year again!

Just like last year meet at the Caboolture king street centennial park at 8am for a 9am sharp departure run thru the back of Caboolture behind lakeside down to the old Petrie town village. For morning tea there is a cafe, however bring your own is easier .

Pine rivers heritage museum has free entry located at the front of the village. There will be a run sheet and a quiz provided so try to make the museum for answers

Now there is only one problem, I contacted lake side and spoke to Keith who informs me that there is no events available for the third Sunday of this month however this coming Saturday the 14th, we can join the lotus club championship round 3 and fit into their lunchtime slot as we did last year for laps around the circuit. It is free entry to lakeside if you only want to watch however.

I need to confirm at least 30 paying guests to secure the track for the day. It is a full buffet lunch drink included at $35 per adult and $10 per child. There needs to be at least one armband on the driver of the people wanting to do laps on the day. This money will need to be collected at the park in the morning so I can ring thru the quantities to the caterers.

There will be raffles and trophies on the day those who attended last year said what a great time they had. At the track vehicles need to have seatbelts but don’t need to be registered. But remember there is no insurance and there will be children in other vehicles so don’t be silly.

I realise that we only have a few days to make this happen so I need rsvp for at least 30 by Tuesday 10th 5pm

Put the word out get as many friends with cars as possible.
Hope to see you all there!

Regards,
Craig & Sherrie
