We would like to thank the team at On The Spot Auto Keys.

They saw us struggling while filming an episode of 'Will it Start' and have hooked us up with a Topedon V2200 Jump Pack.

Its not only a Jump Pack as it can connect to your phone via Bluetooth and give you real time data on your battery health, power usage and charge rates.

We have some more episodes lined up in 2026 and you'll definitely see this in use.

Volunteering is a great way to get involved in motorsport and it only costs you time.

A few weeks ago we took a crew of people to learn how to me marshalls at the Round Mountain Race Track and they got front row seats watching the V8 Jet boats belt around the circuit....a few of them were even lucky enough to score a hot lap.

The club is always on the lookout for people keen to help run event days, if you would like to volunteer as a marshall at the club get in touch with us.

Volunteering is a great way to get involved in many community events and motorsport is no different, from televised races right down to grass roots events at...

While on holiday in Japan I had the opportunity to jump on the Shinkensan Bullet train from Tokyo to Osaka.

These are pretty imrpessive machines, built like a plane and reached a top speed of 280kmh just under 6 minutes from leaving a station with 16 carriages.

The things you find!

Just walking through down town Kyoto and walked past this 5th Gen C210 Datsun Skyline.

Pretty rare car to stumble across just sitting there waiting to be rescued.

Kei Cars are pretty big in Japan and its really cool seeing all the different ways they use them. Spotted this cool little 4x4 Diahatsu in the Nara Park while going for a walk.

Even has a sweet stainless exhaust

One of our board members is on holiday in Japan, and as much as its not really "car related" we thought we needed to share the message we got sent simply because its a little bit funny.

Therr is more then one way to get involved with motorsport.

Yesterday a group of us assisted the saftey marshalls at the Round Mountain Raceway club day, we got to see some pretty unique machines get put through thier paces, a few of us managed a hot lap and some of us had a chance to indulge in some photography.

Pretty sweet images here and we would like to acknowledge Steve Gregory for them.

Today the crew headed to Mountain Road Raceway for a bit of Jetboat action.

10 of us spent the morning assisting the saftey marshalls keep everything on track and a few were fortunate enough to get a ride in the passenger seat.

Was a great day spent with the club and we thank then for thier hospitality.
