The Hulme Supercar prototype (pictured) will appear at the Highlands Festival of Speed this Easter. The multi-million dollar project is the brainchild of former Queenstown man Jock Freemantle, who hopes to announce plans for a production run of the Hulme later this year.
The Hulme will take centre stage at the Highlands Classic and Racing Car Show which is part of the April event. The sealed Highlands Museum carpark area will be used the show along with other specialist displays, including some original, wooden-hulled jetboats.
Grassroots scholarships Caroline Harker Wanaka Sun The Wanaka Ski and Snowsports Club will sponsor ten children, to the tune of $250 each, to take part in winter snowsports programmes at either Treble Cone or Cardrona this winter. Last year, in the inaugural Grassroots Snowsports Awards, the club sponsored five children to attend their own school’s snowports programmes, and this year those children will be offered the same le ve l o f sp o n so rs h i p to attend one of the skifield programmes. This is in addition to the offer of sponsorship for five new children. “We want to build up some more young families in the club,” secretary Bonny Teat said. Applicants should be in years two to six at an Upper Clutha school and attend their schools own snowsports programme in the winter term. The Cardrona Hobbits programme and Treble Cones Riders and Sliders will both run for six consecutive Sundays. Hobbits usually costs $270 and Riders and Sliders is $349. Applicants can be skiers or snowboarders. The first 20 children to apply for the 2014 Grassroots Snowsports Awards will be offered a free hour-and-a-half trampolining session with a coach at Hawea Flat.
The successful pupils and their families will be invited to join the Wanaka Ski and Snowsports Club, and to attend the club’s annual Winter Warm-Up club-sponsored athletes night on July 10 to collect their awards. The inaugural five pupils who received the award in 2013 are being invited to give a summary of their season at the event. They are Thomas Benson (Holy Family), Imogen Dougherty (Hawea), Angus Wallis (Makarora), Jack Willson (Tarras) and Bella Soper (Wanaka). Bella is pictured with her club “buddy” Piera Hudson and their mothers Sally Soper and Fi Hudson. Other athletes sponsored by the club will also talk about how they have used their grants. The club hopes this will include some of the five athletes who represented New Zealand at the Sochi Winter Olympic Games; PHOTO: BONNY TEAT freeskiers Jossi, Byron and Beau James Wells, alpine racer Adam Barwood and snowboarder Bex Sinclair. The Wanaka Ski and Snowsports Club was formed in 1979. “One of its objectives was to increase the enjoyment of on-snow activities for our Wanaka families,” Bonny said. “We hope we can continue to do this by assisting new families to become involved.” See sunspots for details.
Cromwell suits local drivers Cromwell Super Saloon contracted driver Mike Verdoner, showing just how at home he is on the clay surface, beat Christchurch drivers 73C Mark ‘Fluffy’ Grocott and 71C Willie Woodhouse, to win the Super Saloons Stampede feature race on Saturday night. Racing in round nine of the South Island’s War of the Wings series at Ruapuna Speedway in Christchurch a fortnight ago, Central Motor Speedway president Andy Erskine rolled his sprintcar, demolishing the overhead and front wings.
