The 2025 edition (‘Elevate’) of the Vancouver International Auto Show is now ‘live’ at the Vancouver Convention Centre West . It opened on Wednesday March 19th and runs through to Sunday, the 23rd. Full details of the show are available on the Elevate website (here).

 

When you come down the escalator to enter the Show, the first thing you will see is the BC Motorsports display. The VRCBC is there along with our road racing partners, the Sports Car Club of BC (SCCBC), plus Women in Motorsport (WIM), the Motorsports Emergency and Turnworkers Association (META), the Westwood Motorcycle Racing Club (WMRC), the Squamish Brackendale Rally Cross Club (SBRCC), the West Coast Kart Club (WCKC), and B.C. Legends. And for the very young (and smaller size!) motorsports enthusiasts, there is even a Soap Box Derby car from the Mission and District Soapbox Derby Association that you can try on for size!

 

And right next door to us in the Mission Raceway Park display is an extremely fast drag racing car from the B C Custom Car Association (BCCCA). They also have a demonstration ‘Christmas Tree’; see how your startline reaction time compares to the experts’.

 

Make sure to drop by and say hello before you head into the main part of the Show with all of its fantastic new and old vehicles! See you there!

Unlike the previous race weekend, the weather was ‘less than ideal’ for the SCCBC’s ‘Fall Finale’ / CACC #6 October 26th-27th race weekend at the Speed Fanatics Motorsport Course at Mission Raceway Park. The Vintage races on Sunday were the seventh and last (already!) IWE-REVS points events for 2024 for VRCBC members. Time flies when you’re having fun!

The Vintage results are available on this website (here) under the Race Results menu, and the full weekend results are available on the SCCBC website (here). Brent Martin braved the rain to take his usual great photos of the on-track action. You can see some of them below and the rest on his website (here).

Our REVS Sunday Vintage races are part of the full weekends of road racing organized by the Sports Car Club of BC (SCCBC) and sanctioned by the Confederation of Autosport Car Clubs (CACC). The full 2025 season schedule will be posted on the SCCBC website Schedule page (here) once it is finalized, probably some time in January. Make sure to check it out and in the meantime, get those Vintage racing cars ready!

The weather was perfect for the Vintage racing on the Sunday of the SCCBC’s ‘Wet Leaf Classic’ / CACC #5 October 5-6 race weekend at the Speed Fanatics Motorsport Course at Mission Raceway Park. This was the sixth IWE-REVS points event for 2024 for VRCBC members.

The VRCBC always say: ‘The Cars are the Stars!’ and ‘Vintage means Variety!’ and this weekend proved it! The Vintage entry included in (approximate) alphabetical order, an Austin ‘Big’ Healey, four BMWs ( a 2002, three E30s) a Camaro and a Corvette, six Datsuns (a 1200, two 510s, three 240Zs), a Ford Focus SVT, a Honda Civic, a Mazda Miata, a MGB, a (tube chassis) Pontiac Grand Am, two Porsches (a 911S, a 911RSR), a Triumph (Dolomite) 2000, and a Volvo 142S. This is why Vintage racing is so much fun to take part in and to watch; the cars are so different and everyone has someone to race with.

The Vintage results are available on this website under Race Results (here) and the full weekend results are available on the SCCBC website (here). Brent Martin took his usual great photos of the on-track action. You can see some of them below and the rest on his website (here).

The VRCBC held it’s big annual event, the British Columbia Historic Motor Races (BCHMR), over the August 10th-11th weekend at Speed Fanatics Motorsports Circuit, Mission Raceway Park. The weather was very good and there was some excellent close racing, plus a two day Field of Dreams car show. It was a lot of fun, which is really what Vintage racing is all about. A big thank you to all of our sponsors and supporters, and of course to the entrants and spectators. Go to the BCHMR’s own website (here) for the race results, plus some photos and stories about the weekend activities. We hope to see you all again next year for the 2025 edition of the BCHMR!

 

Our next Vintage racing will be during the Sunday of the SCCBC’s ‘Back to School‘ race event over the September 14th-15th weekend. Registration is open for both entrants (here) and volunteers (here).

Updated: June 2, 2024

The 37th edition of the All British Field Meet (aka The Greatest Show on British Wheels) was held on Saturday, May 18th at Vancouver’s beautiful VanDusen Botanical Garden. The weather started out wet and miserable but gradually improved and was sunny and warm by mid-afternoon; very British actually!

This year, the ABFM’s three featured marques were Triumph – both cars and bikes, Sunbeam Tiger (we had one!) and, something new, a display of modified classics – a rapidly growing area of interest with automotive enthusiasts. The ABFM website (here) will have a complete listing of the various award winners shortly.

The VRCBC was there again in its usual spot near the entrance with three of our members’ British racing cars on display. We enjoyed talking to all of the spectators who dropped by asking about the racing cars, our big BC Historic Motor Races weekend in August, and also about road racing at Mission in general.

A big Thank You to the ABFM for again providing us with complimentary space, and to those Club members who donated their cars, display materials and time; very much appreciated.

See you again at the next ABFM on May 17, 2025 !

The VRCBC’s 2024 Vintage racing season kicked off on Sunday, April 27th during the SCCBC’s ‘Spring Fling‘ weekend at the Speed-Fanatics Motorsport Circuit at Mission Raceway Park. This was the first IWE-REVS points event for 2024 for VRCBC members.

 

Road racers pride themselves on always racing in the rain, unlike some other forms of motorsport. But there was probably some (secret) questioning of that dedication by both racers and turnworkers this weekend; it was cold and it was wet; particularly on Saturday.

 

The results are available on the SCCBC website (here). Brent Martin braved the elements to take his usual great photos of the on-track action. You can see some of them below and the rest on his website (here).

 

Our Vintage races are part of full weekends of road racing organized by the Sports Car Club of BC (SCCBC) and sanctioned by the Confederation of Autosport Car Clubs (CACC). Check out the full season schedule on the SCCBC website Schedule page (here). There will be no Vintage races at the next event, the ICSCC (‘Conference’) weekend on May 25-26, but there will be lots of close racing.

 

The next Vintage races will be on the Sunday of the SCCBC ‘Summer Classic’ event during the June 22-23 weekend. (It HAS to be warmer!) Registration is already open on MotorsportReg.com:

  • Driver Registration for the ‘Summer Classic’ Race Weekend – June 22nd & June 23rd (here)

Elevate – Vancouver Auto Show at the Vancouver Convention Centre is now over for another year! There was something to interest every automotive enthusiast. If you couldn’t make it in person, full information will still be available on the show website (here) for a while. The show was record setting. Saturday had the highest single day attendance (39,823) in the history of the show. And the overall show attendance (129,034) was the highest ever. The 2025 Vancouver International Auto Show has already been scheduled to take place, again at the Vancouver Convention Centre West, from March 26 to 30.

 

The VRCBC and the Sports Car Club of BC (SCCBC) shared a booth. We were kept very busy answering questions from the many people who stopped to check out the different road racing cars on display, and pick up information on the clubs and our race weekends at Mission Raceway Park, how to become involved as a racer or turn worker, or as a spectator. Members of Women in Motorsports were there too! They have quickly become a real driving force throughout our whole motorsports community.

 

It was a very successful show. Thank you to everyone who dropped by. If you have any further questions, just check out the other pages on this VRCBC website and / or the SCCBC website (here).

See you at the track!

That was quick! The race season is already over! The final CACC-sanctioned SCCBC race event of 2022 was held over the October 8th-9th weekend at the  Speed-Fanatics Motorsport Circuit at Mission Raceway Park. The weather was perfect and there was a lot of competitive racing. It was an excellent wrap up for the season.

The full results for the weekend are posted on the SCCBC website (here).

Unfortunately, our long time photo-journalist (and overall great supporter of the VRCBC), Brent Martin (website) was unable to attend this weekend for health reasons. Two other good friends of the Club, Gerry Frechette and Sue Phypers stepped into the breach on very short notice to take photos of the action. (Thanks guys.) A few of these are posted below. You can find all of their photos of the Vintage action, plus those of their many other motoring-related activities on Gerry’s website.

It’s probably OK to take a few days off but then be sure to get right back to preparing your Vintage racing car. The first race of the 2023 season will be here before you know it! See you at the track!

Vintage races but there will be lots of exciting action. There will be many entrants from south of the border in addition to our local stars, with everybody after Conference championship points as the season draws to a close.

The fourth races of the 2022 VRCBC’s Vintage racing season took place on Sunday, July 17th at the Speed-Fanatics Motorsport Circuit at Mission Raceway Park. This was also the fourth event of the VRCBC’s IWE-REVS points series for 2022.

Our Vintage races were just one part of a full weekend of road racing organized by the Sports Car Club of BC (SCCBC) and sanctioned by the Confederation of Autosport Car Clubs (CACC). 

Thanks (as always) to Brent Martin for his photos (see below) of the action. They are available on Brent’s website (here), along with the many others he has taken over the years. Make sure to check them out and order at least one of yourself (or your favourite ‘hero’ driver if that’s not you) in action!

The complete results for the weekend, including those for Vintage, are available on the SCCBC web site (here). The next Vintage races at the Speed-Fanatics Motorsport Circuit are the Club’s British Columbia Historic Motor Races over the August 6th-7th weekend. Check out who has already entered on the BCHMR website (here) and we look forward to seeing you there!

The third races of the 2022 VRCBC’s Vintage racing season took place on Sunday, June 12th at the Speed-Fanatics Motorsport Circuit at Mission Raceway Park. This was the third event of the VRCBC’s very own IWE-REVS points series for 2022.

The Vintage races were just part of a full weekend of road racing organized by the Sports Car Club of BC (SCCBC) and sanctioned by the Confederation of Autosport Car Clubs (CACC). The weather was a little damp at times but not enough to bother the hardy Vintage racers!

Two of the VRCBC’s finest competed in the 2022 Leavitt Machinery Knox Mountain Hill Climb. President Mike Zbarsky was a first timer with his rare 1967 Triumph 2000. In contrast, Larry Sandham’s Mini Vauxhall has lost count of how many times they have gone up that hill together! – Jim Moody photos

Posted: May 26, 2022

After missing two years (for well known reasons), the Leavitt Machinery Knox Mountain Hill Climb was back over the May long weekend. Our intrepid roving reporter (and long time supporter) Jim Moody braved ‘the wilds’ of the Okanagon in order to send us this report and photos of some of the highlights. Thanks very much Jim!

 

The recent Victoria Day weekend saw the return of the Knox Mountain Hill Climb after the event, for the two previous years, had been cancelled. This year’s event, the 63rd Okanagan Hill Climb, was held under pleasant sunny skies. The two day event saw 54 drivers challenge the road course and a large turnout of spectators enjoyed the racing action both days. VRCBC was well represented along with other vintage entries. Club president Michael Zbarsky made his first appearance at Knox. Michael’s best time with his 1967 Triumph 2000 was on his final run turning a 2:30. 325.

Larry Sandham with his Mini Vauxhall turned a 2:10.729 this year for his fast time on the hill. Gayle Baird achieved a time of 2:28.382 with her Honda Civic and Erle Archer driving a Lotus S3 recorded a time of 2:14. 148 as his best. Robin Liu with the 1970 Datsun 240Z posted a best time of 2:26.098 on his final run of the weekend. Kees Nierop entered a Datsun 280Z and achieved a quick time of 2:06. 260.

Jasper Thomas, making his first appearance, arrived at Knox Mt. with his 1970 Dodge Challenger. His time of 2:14.528 on his 7th run would be his best. A long time competitor at Knox, Fred Del Pero with his 1969 Alfa Romeo GTV got his time down to 2:02.921 this year. Doug Yip with his son Trevor returned to Knox Mt. with the Tesla Cobra EV. Trevor’s best time this year was 1:54.435.

The Gunner brothers, Nick and Steve made an appearance at Knox again. Nick’s time of 2:13.372 beat Steve’s best of 2:13.762. Richard Matte driving Steve’s Porsche 944 post a best time of 2:18.080.

The FTD winner of this year’s event was Mark Uhlmann racing his Stohr WF1 up the Knox course with a very quick time of 1:39.989. Mark’s time was just 2.924 seconds off the record time set in 2007 by John Haftner with his Tui Super Vee.

In all, 12 drivers posted times under 2 minutes and a few more entries very close to that mark. It was a successful weekend of Hillclimb racing I think all would agree. – Jim Moody

 

The full results are available on the event web site (here) and the event Facebook page (here) has more photos and an onboard video of the fastest time of the day by Mark Uhlmann.

The second races of the 2022 VRCBC’s Vintage racing season took place on Sunday, May 15th at the Speed-Fanatics Motorsport Circuit. (If you haven’t already heard, that is the brand new name for our long time home, the Road Course at Mission Raceway Park.) This was the second event of the VRCBC’s very own IWE-REVS points series for 2022.

The Vintage races were just part of a full weekend of road racing organized by the Sports Car Club of BC (SCCBC) and sanctioned by the Confederation of Autosport Car Clubs (CACC). The weather was not very cooperative (unless you enjoy ‘liquid sunshine’) but road racing goes ahead ‘rain or shine’!

Thanks (as always) to Brent Martin for some photos (see below) of the action during the morning practice session. All of Brent’s many photos are available on his website (here). Make sure to check them out and order at least one of yourself (or your favourite ‘hero’ driver if that’s not you) in action!

The complete results for the weekend, including those for Vintage, are available on the SCCBC web site (here). The next races at the Speed-Fanatics Motorsport Circuit are scheduled for the June 11-12 weekend. See you there!

Once again, Brent Martin captures the torrid Vintage action! John Elliott (’69 MGB) closes in on Ryan O’Connor (’85 Camaro) through Mission’s Turn 5, shrewdly setting him up for a pass – or perhaps just some bump-drafting – along the straight between Turns 6 and 7 …. or maybe not!

Wire wheels and wood rimmed steering wheels were the style over the CACC September 18th – 19th race weekend at the Road Course at Mission Raceway Park. The SCCBC was honouring its most senior member, Paul Lautard who was celebrating his 99th year! Paul used to race an MG TC many years ago, so some local MG enthusiasts brought out their classics to put on display in the Paddock and to also do some parade laps.

The MG TCs. TDs and TFs are generally credited with leading the rapid growth of sports cars in post war North America. They might look pretty antiquated to modern eyes but they were a lot of fun ‘back in the day’ and they still are! Thanks as always to Brent Martin for the great photos (below).

See you at the 2022 BCHMR! – Brent Martin photo

Posted: July 9, 2021

It is with great sadness and frustration that the VRCBC had to cancel the BCHMR for 2021. The Club thanks all those racers and volunteers who did register with a special thank you to our friends from SOVREN who supported us once again. However, we didn’t get the required absolute minimum 40 Canadian entrants we needed to make a go of it.

The BCHMR committee ultimately felt we would be better off keeping our ‘war chest’ intact to put on a bigger and better show next year, when we can get all our ducks in a row, and adequately advertise our event without worry about conforming to COVID protocols and possible uncertain restrictions.

Frank Micucci of Driver’s Edge Autosport draws the winning name and the winner ‘Rocket Ralphie’ Zbarsky shows off the goodies he chose from Frank’s wide selection of motorsport products.

Updated: December 18, 2020

Last month the Club distributed an online questionnaire to a large number of current and previous members, BCHMR entrants, and other friends and associates. The objective of this survey was to gather data and opinions that would help the incoming 2021 executive make improvements to the Club’s future racing events and organization in general. The overall response was very gratifying. Our survey team then prepared a report (PDF here), which consolidates the results and also summarizes their conclusions from them.

 

As a thank you for those responding to the survey, the Club offered free entry to a draw for a $100 gift certificate at our long time supporter, Driver’s Edge Autosport . Frank Micucci of Driver’s Edge drew the winner’s name  – veteran Vintage racer Ralph (aka Rocket Ralphie) Zbarsky. Ralph recently picked up a bundle of goodies at Driver’s Edge.

 

Thanks to everyone who participated and to the Club members who initiated and organized this survey.

The SCCBC held their third and final CACC-sanctioned race weekend (‘That’s Fall Folks!) of this very unusual season at the Mission Raceway Park road course on September 26th – 27th.. There was an excellent Vintage grid on the Sunday and some great battles throughout the field. It was an enjoyable (well, for almost everybody) way to close out this very unusual season. The complete results for the weekend are posted on the SCCBC web site (here). And as always, thanks to Brent Martin for the photos (see below) of the action.

Let’s all hope for a return to something ‘reasonably normal’ for the 2021 season. In the meantime, stay tuned for updates until then.

Some cars were  ‘attacked’ by the Vintage racing gremlins, but there was also some excellent on-track battles. In spite of the heat, the mosquitoes and the (now familiar to us all) COVID protocol requirements, it was good to get back to the track. Hopefully, the next event scheduled for the August 22nd-23rd weekend will also get the green flag.

Updated: July 24, 2020

The first race weekend of this very unusual season will be this coming July 25th-26th weekend. Unfortunately, due to the necessary restrictions that we are now all too familiar with, the number of entrants and crew has had to be limited and there will be no spectators allowed.  However, the weather forecast is good and everyone entered is looking forward to getting back into action after all this time.

Remember to keep checking the Schedule page (here) on the SCCBC web site for the current status of the remaining 2020 road racing season at Mission. Take care and we hope to see everybody at the track soon.

Larry Sandham bends his Mini Vauxhall around a turn at the Knox Mountain Hill Climb in Kelowna earlier this year; no doubt practicing for Maryhill! – Jim Moody photo

Posted: October 11, 2018

VRCBC member Larry Sandham took his well-known Mini Vauxhall down to the Maryhill Hill Climb in Goldendale Washington over the October 6-7 weekend. The Maryhill Hill Climb is no pushover; this is what our friends in the SOVREN vintage racing club say about it:

“It’s a unique experience for any motorsports enthusiast, as very few hill climb events are still available anywhere in the world. Driving it at speed is a dizzying ascension not for the faint of heart, with long drop-offs just a few feet away all the way to the top.”

This is what Larry had to report:

“Unfortunately, only 19 cars took part in this year’s event, which was down a little on the usual 30 to 40 but a good time was had by all nevertheless. The cooler than normal temperatures kept the times down a bit but I still managed to get a fourth overall despite having the wrong gearing in the car. The event even includes the opportunity to drive your racing car down the public highway to a car show at the Maryhill Museum on the Saturday, which is always a lot of fun. Heck, where else do you get to do that! No helmet, no insurance, no muffler and a ‘liberal’ speed limit make for a fun drive.”

You can watch Larry pretend to be Don Quixote charging the windmills in this short video.

Larry even took some time out from looking for windmills to take a few photos of some of the other interesting cars at the event. Thanks Larry; we look forward to your 2019 report!
