23.01.2022 Below is the October BCC newsletter. Been a while since anything has happened in the world of local motorsport, this is about to change, the club will be running a club khanacross/motorkhana at Bagshot, for BCC members and their families ONLY. We are not allowed to have any spectators and ALL the COVID restrictions will apply throughout the day. All information is in the newsletter and the Supplementary Regulations on the BCC website https://bendigocarclub.com.au//2020/10/CROSS-FLOW-Sept-202

22.01.2022 Today the we held round 1 of the 2020/2021 BCC Championship. The organisers had a few hurdles to get back to the track with the COVID-19 restrictions, but thanks to everyone for their support and help on the day. Results will be compiled over the next couple of days. Thanks Jacqui for the photos

20.01.2022 Our Bagshot Motorsport complex has been broken into sometime within the last couple of days, the perpetrators used a grinder to cut the padlocks on the front gate and storage container, they have damaged to machinery shed to access it as well. The club Junior Training Ford Falcon has been stolen, it is CFA red and had BCC custom plates JNR-005. The incident has been reported to the police, if anyone knows or has seen anything please let either the club or the police know.

20.01.2022 The BCC ONLY event at Bagshot on Sunday is still going ahead as planned at this stage. This depends on government regulations between now and then. There will be a few changes in place that you will see when you get there. It is asked that only BCC members and their families attend. As there is no casual spectators allowed. Supplementary Regulations are on the website, if you planning to attend it is asked that you complete and bring it with you. Craig Button... President. See more

19.01.2022 Bendigo Car Club members are welcome to enter

18.01.2022 Here's some photos from a Bagshot off road event, looks to be very early 1990's, a couple of BCC member's of the time included

18.01.2022 With no activities happening on track it's time to go to the vault and see what we can find, over the next week I hope to post various photos of Bendigo Car Club members doing what they doing. First up is one from 10 years ago, it was our round of the then Mallee Shield held in November 2010, featuring Ken Holt, Craig Button, Graham Symons and David Larson.

18.01.2022 If it wasn't for the social distancing requirements, today would have been the Easter Salesyard Dash. Looking back through my vault I have come up with this collection, it's not the Easter event, but it is the 2005 Christmas Dash, which was ran for a few years as the final round of the BCC championship.

16.01.2022 This weekend we get back on track. This event is for BCC members and their families only, please no spectators. As to be expected all COVID restrictions will be enforced, please supply you own face masks as there will only be a limited supply on hand. Supp Regs are on the BCC website. Preferred payment method is direct deposit, details are on the paperwork.

14.01.2022 Sunday saw the BCC run round 1 of the 2020/21 club championship, 24 drivers attended, in near perfect conditions. Brendan Paynting took the win in his Subaru WRX. Brodie Zysvelt was the first junior in 6th outright in his Hyundai Excel. Full results are on the link below. https://bendigocarclub.com.au//Results-Khanacross-19-7-20.

13.01.2022 Continuing with events from yester-year, these photos are from the 1998 Easter Dash which was held in Nolan Street and the creek behind Lake Weeroona. As with our Salesyard event of later years it was very popular with the crowd, lining the creek bank and roadside to view the action. Thanks to Brian Shanahan for the photos.

12.01.2022 This Saturday there will be limited catering at the Salesyard Dash, as the Livestock Exchange canteen will not be open, there will be a BBQ food and drinks available.

12.01.2022 The BCC membership year is coming to a close at the end of June. Below is the renewal form for the 2020-2021 year, a discount will be available until the end of July, see the form for details. https://bendigocarclub.com.au//up/2020/05/Renewal-form.pdf

07.01.2022 ANNOUNCEMENT Mt Tarrengower Hill Climb 2020 Update 28/07/2020 To all officials, competitors, sponsors, suppliers, spectators and other interested parties. As y...ou are all aware that we are experiencing some very challenging times at the moment with most other events being cancelled. It is with the safety concerns of everyone involved in the Mt Tarrengower Hill Climb that through the committee and other interested parties we have decided to cancel this year’s event. It would be near impossible to maintain social distancing with the competitors, officials and the spectators following the regulations that need to be adhered to ensuring a safe environment for all. Thank you everyone for your support and understanding to this decision being made. It is very important to keep this event going into the future, considering it being a significant standalone event and a large contributor to the local economy.
