Hi,

This post is actually for last years AGCM. The 2020 AGCM has been postponed. Here is a link to the news item on the MSNZ website: https://motorsport.org.nz/motorsport...rds-postponed/

Hi guys,

A few points:

The original survey came from HRC, not MSNZ, and was directed at those who had not competed at one of their events since 2017. I was a recipient of the survey email even...

The venue is the old Houghton Bay Hillclimb, Wellington - looking back down towards Martin Luckie Park in the background. The Wellington Car Club clubrooms were (out of shot) to the right for many...

Holy crap, I can log in again! I don't think I'm the only one who has that problem - I just assume performance issues are because the site is so overwhelmed...

A bit late notice of course, but my ability to log in has been patchy of late and if you were planning on going you really needed to start thinking about it back in February or March!

Hi GeeBeeNZ,
