…and after that I promise I will stop harping on about it. Look on the bright side, after the meeting, the next thing will be our Bush Khanacross on the 2rd March, so that’s something more pleasurable to look forward to 🙂

Annual General Meeting – Wednesday 12th February 7:00pm onwards
Hi everyone. Please mark your calendars for the AGM and let anyone and everyone know if you can. We really need people to join up and if possible help out!
Everyone has pitched some great ideas but it would be nice to have a few more resources to make them a reality.
Hope to see you all there with friends, neighbours, relatives, strangers……
A great big thank you to all the competitors who came along on Sunday for our first Khanacross for 2025. The conditions were great, even a little rain to keep the dust at bay before we began.
Such a diverse field. Lets hope its an indicator that we are in for an exciting year with lots of new faces. I think all would agree, it was nice to see the outright podium shared between a Lady, a Junior and a Male competitor. Now if we can just get some different surnames up there 
A special thanks to everyone who helped out, including the members from other clubs. Those who: kept us safe, made sure we left on time, had our times recorded, processed our paperwork, made suggestions, checked our vehicles, cooked us lunch, set up courses, drew maps, looked after the inexperienced, told us when we got it wrong 
went and picked up the flags, helped fix our cars, prepared the paddock, handled the payments, supported the friends and family competing, everyone behind the scenes who make these events happen.
And the thanks continues, to the other clubs and organisations who support our events Kempsey Sporting Car ClubNew England Sporting Car Club – NESCCRaleigh international racewayRaleigh Motorsports Association IncGrafton Sporting Car ClubMotorsport Australia
Thanks again everyone for making it a great event.
Our Annual General Meeting is on Wednesday the 12th February
Next event is the Bush Khanacross on Sunday the 3rd March
Its the first Coffs Car Club Khanacross for the Year, so lets make it a good one.
Lower paddock Raleigh International Raceway, Valery Road, Raleigh
If you need to complete paperwork or renew your membership, please leave yourself a little extra time and get there early. Things have changed a little with parking and course entry/exit so try and park on the lower side of the caravan to minimise the mixing of foot traffic and vehicles.
As always there is plenty to do if your keen to help out.
Drivers briefing at 09:30 for the first car away at 09:45
Sausage sizzle for lunch and plenty of cold drinks for sale (its likely to be hot). Bring your hat, water and some shade if youve got it.
See you there!
Just a quick note for anyone experiencing difficulty putting a junior entry in through the Motorsport Australia member portal. Note it is necessary to select the optional activity “junior” to reduce the entry fee.
Perhaps more importantly, remember we are here to assist if required and you can ALWAYS come along on the day and put in a manual entry, join or renew your membership.
Assuming of course your Motorsport Australia license is up to date!
Some people find the credit card surcharge on the Portal a consideration. Note, you can always complete your entry, select EFT as the payment method then either pay cash on the day or complete funds transfer whichever way you find convenient. Please remember to add your surname as a reference.
I hope this assists you to enter into one of our events soon. Better yet, see you this Sunday the 2nd February for the opening round of the Coffs Coast Khanacross Series 2025 at Raleigh International Raceway.
Here is an opportunity not to be missed! See Francis Birtles 1924 Bean in all its glory during a reenactment of one of his epic drives, this one from London to Melbourne. If you haven’t read about the Australian explorer Francis Birtle (before the Car he explored on a bicycle!) your not an official Australian car nut.
Warren Brown and Matthew Benns have a few stories behind them aswell! Might be your only chance to see Australian History like this alive (the car not the drivers).
This Thursday 23rd January around 1pm (time to be confirmed) at the National Holden Museum – Bunker Gallery.
