Hill climb says thanks

TWICE a year, Gyndier Drive on Noosa Hill is the venue for The Noosa Hill Climb – a local motor sport event that has been running for 18 years – and just keeps getting better.
From historic racers to modern-day performance vehicles, drivers race their vehicles up the hill against the clock.
The Noosa Hill Climb has become one of the most popular National Hill Climb events. Last year, the events attracted over 240 entrants from Queensland and Interstate.
The Noosa Car Club wanted to thank the Noosa Council for recognising the popularity of the Noosa Hill Climb and for helping the event organisers with vital improvements for the running of this event at Gyndier Drive.
Noosa Car Club vice-president Graeme Block said the council’s support was important and helped the club keep up the standard of the event.
Club members met with the Noosa mayor Noel Playford and councillors recently to present a plaque to show their appreciation.
