Thanks everyone who entered, assisted with and supported the Bonville Service Station & Licensed Post Office – Bush Khanacross yesterday (Sunday 6th July). A huge effort was made from the team to get the event going after the recent wet weather and as always, everyone chipped in on the day and helped where they could.

We hope to invest more of the entry money earned from entries along with the financial support from Bonville Servo, to plan more track and event improvements.

The club hopes to see you at future events and we hope you enjoyed the event. You are always welcome to forward your ideas and give feedback for future club developments.

Next meeting:

Wednesday 16th July

Upcoming Events:

Coffs Coast Khanacross 3rd August

Quality Accounting Coffs Coast Rally 2025 Saturday 11th October.

Next Bonville Servo & LPO Bush Khanacross, 2nd November.

It took a whole bunch of wonderful people to come together to get the Bush Khanacross Course ready for this Sundays event. Its also been a long patient wait for many competitors and everyone deserves our thanks and gratitude.

The wait is finally over, and though the conditions aren’t perfect, previous events have suggested that the sooner we compete on the surface the sooner it dries out and improves. Either way the event should be a heap of fun.

With lots of new drivers on the entry list, its shaping up to be a great way to encourage new members.

I hope you can all come down on Sunday and enjoy the fruit of our labors. The improvements are a testimony to everyone in the club.

For anyone who has time to donate, a small team will be setting up most of the day on Saturday.

Hope you can all come down and enjoy this event.

….to the Bonville Service Station and Licensed Post Office – Bush Khanacross Series – Round 2.

---

Entries are open and already we have some exciting entrants in a variety of vehicles/classes. Lets hope the weather is kind.

Were you aware that much of the proceeds from the running of the event go straight back into making the event bigger and better for next time?

More gravel to improve the weather resistance of the surface and additional length are planned for the future.

Hope to see you all at a round.

I hope that everyone feels the excellent conditions on the weekend made up for the wait and inconvenience we have experienced recently due to the weather…well mostly 🙂

It was a fantastic turn out on Sunday for our second round of the Coffs Coast Khanacross Series. With a huge range of cars, drivers and experience represented. Its great to see some families and young competitors getting involved and the ladies class is really getting some momentum.

Apologies to everyone for the changing of dates. I understand it may have been an inconvenience. The weather and the track maintenance has made things challenging however I believe the finished results will make up for the trouble.

Just to recap:

WEDNESDAY 18th June @ 7:30 pm is the next meeting.

SUNDAY 22nd June is the next Coffs Coast Khanacross Round (in the paddock).

SUNDAY 6th July is the next Bonville Service Stations & Licensed Post Office Bush Khanacross Round (on the repaired track).

Once again a massive thanks to the members and supporting businesses who have made this happen.

A special mention to the members who donated their time and equipment to finish the works before the weather took it all away…….again! You know who you are. Its people like you and all the others before you, who put the club in a strong position to enable projects like this. Thankyou All.

Due to the weather and some planned track improvements it was necessary to shuffle some dates on the calendar. Please note the following changes:

The next round of the Bonville Service Station and Licensed Post Office – Bush Khanacross will now be the Sunday 22nd June. This will allow us time to setup and hopefully complete the repairs to the track surface, which should mean we are less susceptible to the weather in the long-term. The plan is to have a venue which we can run under any conditions!

Thanks again to everyone assisting with suggestions and help with the track repairs. A big thankyou to the club members who organised the gravel and machines to apply it to the track. Raleigh Raceway deserves our thanks too, for allowing us the ability to use and adjust the track to our requirements. Not too mention the use of their machines and help with spreading and rolling the surface.

A working bee is scheduled for Saturday 7th June if anyone has some spare time to donate. If all goes to plan this will conclude the track work for the short term.

---

With the date of the Bush Khanacross changing, it was necessary the Paddock Khanacross change dates also. Therefore the next Paddock Khanacross will be on the Sunday 6th July.

---

After the postponement of our Quality Accounting Coffs Coast Rally 2025 a new date was sought and now been approved for Saturday 11th October. A separate post will re-reinforce this change. Events on Facebook will be updated. Keep an eye out on the Sportity app or Queensland Rally Championship/Rally NSW/QA Coffs Coast Rally, Facebook Page for further updates.
