25.01.2022 Watch out! The ATRC WD Motorsport Touring Super Sprint Bug is contagious. Geoff Thorp has been a car nut for as long as he can remember. He has fond memories of pulling his bike apart as a child, and following his dad around, who was into the Holden Commodore scene for a number of years.His passion for cars went from being a spectator, to regularly participating in Tour events, as part of the Australian Tarmac Rally Championship.I heard about the event and went along as a... spectator a number of years ago and loved what I saw, Geoff said.It was a great mix of cars, and a great level of camaraderie and openness that was shown. At that time I was looking at it as a potential competitor and what WD Motorsport and Mountain Motorsport and the guys had organised, really looked like something that would be fun to be a part of.Four years later and Geoff admits hes hooked, and it hasnt cost him a lot to participate. He has a blast in his 1989 Peugeot 405 Mi16.The event, especially the Tour group is most definitely suitable for your daily drive, Geoff said.You dont need the most powerful car in the world. Its not about having the fastest or newest or most expensive car. Its understanding your own vehicle and its limits and your own limits as well. We have lots of fun. The competitors might think of us (Tour group) as the poor cousin, but we think its great to be part of the competition group, following them through the stages and mingling with them during the breaks.Geoff lives in the Yarra Valley in Melbourne and is acutely aware of the amazing roads on his doorstep, as well as further afield that is part of the appeal of competing in the ATRC Tour.Were lucky to live around some of the best roads in Victoria, Geoff said.The areas where we go to, its beautiful mountain country side, unique Australian country roads and generally located near some pretty spectacular locations.Were lucky to have those roads closed off, so we can enjoy them in a private, safe setting.Although Geoff has competed in several Tours, the next event the Mt Baw Baw Sprint will be new to him.I did a recce up there a few weeks ago and Im really excited to get on that road and see what its like.I couldnt get over the hill climb. It seems like 40 kilometres of this monstrous hill climb, massive corners and apexes you cant see through, so I think its going to be a challenge.For more on the ATRC WD Motorsport Touring Super Sprint https://www.atrctour.com.au/ Email: [email protected] Produce by Media King Photography by S&M Media

06.01.2022 The Whites upgrade to competition section for Mt Baw Baw Sprint.

05.01.2022 Holden We were very lucky to race in the early 2000’s. If Holden didn’t support all levels of the sport we would not have been out there. To help us go racing... they supplied cars, first the Holden Vectra then the Holden Astra. Paid our entry fees for 2 years and supplied us with Technical support, motors, gearboxes & panels. At the Clipsal 500 they even let us steal the engine mount and a drive shaft out of a display car. The poor lady who bought the car the week after had to wait weeks to get a replacement driveshaft that had the correct spline. Every race was still a battle to fund. Sometimes we could only afford 1 tyre per event but Holden rewarded us when we won and gave panels when we crashed. Through Bilstein Shock Absorbers and Marty Brant Independent Race Cars came the chance to work on a team that lead to the fulfillment of a dream. So thank you Holden for being part of it all and supporting Teams big and small. Great times!
