Eastern Creek Classic 2009

Sunday the 22nd of August was a glorious winters day for the Italian Made Social Motoring Club that showed up in great style to the Shannon's Eastern Creek Classic.

In total 29 IMSMC vehicles turned out and made a spectacular display, many familes and friends joined together to look around at the various types of classic cars on display during the day. From Mustangs to Mg's, Military vehicles and the old Sydney buses crusing around the track all day. There was something for everyone.

The Fiat 500 contingent was well represented and many visitors to our display commented on the vast selection of colours and models of this Italian classic. One visitor coined the term "carburation ally".

The day was filled with excitement, and at around 1:30pm it was our turn to take the classics for a spin around the race track! Our cars went wild, and performed perfectly... less can be said about a poor MG that broke down one hundred metres from the start line!

After a fun filled day at Eastern creek, A few members decided to finish their day with a "refresing ale" at the Cricketers Arms Hotel, behind the old Blacktown drive in. After a drink or two, we each went our separate ways at the conclusion of another brilliant event!

We hope to see even more members at next years Eastern Creek Classic!
