GENERAL INFORMATION


HISTORIC WINTON - HONOURING THE PAST

Australia's largest and most popular all-historic motor race meeting presents two action-packed days of non-stop racing featuring over 400 historic racing cars and motorbikes from the 1920s to the 1980s.

One of the continuing highlights of Historic Winton is Shannon's Classic Vehicle Display with hundreds of interesting old vehicles - and their owners - on show. This display has become a major diversion from the on-track activities with some of the world's most desirable vehicles scattered nonchalantly around the classic vehicle car park.

It doesn't matter what you drive, if it's a classic or special-interest car or bike, you're welcome to join the show.

There is no better place than Historic Winton to appreciate the evolution of Australian Motor Sport. The 2008 meeting on May 24-25 features a selection of Grand Prix vehicles ranging from the first Australian Grand Prix in 1928 through to the 1960s. The competition paddock area features pioneering and innovative Aussie specials which highlight a wealth of old fashioned Aussie ingenuity in their construction.
