Clipsal 500 Success 

 

 



    24 Guests from all over the country enjoyed another great weekend at the Clipsal 500 in March. On Friday Builders and Distributors alike had the opportunity to sample one of Australia's premier golf courses -- Kooyonga Golf Club. People couldn't speak highly enough of the fantastic course condition, it was a shame the golf scores didn't do it credit. A little bloke from Canberra, Marcus Sheridan -- Bryan Sheridan Garage Doors ACT did however manage to string together a fine individual round to take out the inaugural Gliderol Cup, he was closely followed by our own General Manager -- Ben Lumbers whom failed to pip him at

    the post. The team event was comfortably won by the Henley Homes composite consisting of Doug Stevens -- Henley SA, Paul Roots -- Plantation Homes QLD, Peter Carroll -- Plantation Homes QLD and our own Barry Walton -- Gliderol SA.

    A group dinner was enjoyed Friday night a one of Adelaide's most renowned Hotels -- The Edinburgh Hotel -- Mitcham. It was here that several people had the opportunity to sample one of Australia's best eating fish the SA King George Whiting and judging from the remarks after the meal they certainly were not disappointed.

    For Saturday and Sunday it was of to the racetrack whereby we witnessed a dominant display of driving by Marcus Ambrose in a Ford Falcon. Guests enjoyed the fantastic vantage point for viewing the race from the Gliderol Pit and stand Straight Suite and each race was not without its share of spills and thrills.

    All in all it was a fantastic weekend for those involved and credit must go the event organisers for making the Clipsal 500 one of, the if not the premier motor racing event in Australia.
