Special thanks got to our organising committee, the marshals and volunteers, the competitors, Wayne Gair our Steward, and of course to our long term supporters. This includes Harbour City Security, Racetech NZ, Nationwide Fire, SPCA, Wellington Free Ambulance, Wellington City Council, and others. Also our ongoing thanks to the WMSA clubs for once again collaborating with us to make the event happen. The support that all of our clubs provide each other is a massive advantage we have when making motorsport happen in our region, and staging Alexandra Rd is no exception. Thank you to you all, it is greatly appreciated.

Congratulations to Matt Rule, who took out his first ever win overall, and to all of the class winners and place getters. The competition was fierce, and with only 100ths of a second separating some places it was a thrilling day on the hill.

Look forward to seeing you all at the next one.
