Blaise Paris moved to Brisbane in 2019 from Perth arriving in April. His passion in the west was Tarmac Rally events, the highlight being a class win at Targa Tasmania.
Events like the Noosa Hill climb are about as close as you can get, the challenging and unforgiving nature of Australia’s toughest Hill climb is hard to beat. He had heard about the event in Motorsport circles in WA and didn’t waste any time getting involved and had his first run in a Porsche 964 3.8 RSR replica. What a cracking stretch of tarmac and a well run event supported by a great bunch of grassroots Motorsport enthusiasts, the event displaying an incredibly diverse selection of cars everything from old classics and open wheelers to modern Supercars.
Blaise was really pleased to come away with sixth outright at the first event, following up with a best performance in 2022 with third outright and a class win.
“Noosa The Hill” is now a regular event in the calendar for many drivers. Blaise has since replaced the 964 and now a 2019 Porsche GT3 will be having its first run up the hill in October. A very different drive from the old analogue air cooled car but should offer a fun new challenge.
Noosa The Hill will be held 18, 19 and 20 October at Gyndier Drive, Tinbeerwah.
Spectator tickets are available at the gate.
