First Care Medical staff participated in a Fire and Rescue Training day hosted by Women For Wheels (WFW) and the SA Motor Racing Officials Association (SAMROA).

Safety training between relevant racing officials and track safety crews ensures that racing drivers can be confident knowing that their lives are in the hands of some of the best track safety staff and officials in the business!

Thanks to Paul J for filming and compiling this clip!

Shannons Nationals 25th to 27th April

Hi Everyone,

Many thanks to all who have put their names down for this event, which commences on Anzac Day with practice, then continues over the weekend.

This event is one of the best events for the season, with categories such as Kerrick Sports Sedans,V8 Touring Cars, Porsche GT3’s, Formula Fords, and Super Six Touring Cars making up the programme. We encourage you to come out and enjoy the racing “up close”, and to gain further experience working with the lights based at each flag point.

We have been told that this will be a “lights only” event, which will be a first for most of us.

Numbers for Sunday in particular are a bit light, so we encourage/ask for a few more names to be added to the database.

The cut-off date for putting your name down has been extended until 23rd April, so if you haven’t done so yet, please add your name to the list before then.

Regards to all,

Adam Litchfield (Chief Flag)

Ray McGuiness (Assistant Chief Flag)

State Championship Round rescheduled for 22nd March

Great news! The event organizers have been able to reschedule Round 1 to March 22nd. Apart from having another serve of the homemade cake, we can finally get a chance to operate the new light system and do what we love doing.

Lets show everyone that we can provide a full team, even after the Clipsal and AGP and a number of other activities that are on in Adelaide at that time! For those not doing the AGP, another chance to get some practice in before the Shannons.

The database is now open to add your name to the gate list or contact me directly (see below for contact details)

Adelaide Motorsport Festival

Not since 1995, has Formula 1 action hit the streets of Adelaide in the size or scale we will be seeing at the Adelaide Motorsport Festival.

The Adelaide Motorsport Festival is a virtual “museum-in-motion”. A two-day festival that draws upon South Australia’s rich motorsport history and celebrates and re-enacts motorsport competition of a by-gone era. Grand Prix cars from the 1930s to the 1990s are the main focus for the inaugural Adelaide Motorsport Festival and the event is rounded out with a diverse field of historic touring cars, sports cars and classic motorcycles that are welcome to enter as well as displays from some of the greatest classic cars from across the years.

Get up close to all the action and make a significant contribution to an event that preserves motorsport history for future South Australians.  To register to became an official click here  or follow this link http://www.adelaidemotorsportfestival.com.au/#!become-a-voluteer/c14x3
