Vale: Alan Hamilton

If there’s one name that defines Porsche, in Australia it’s Alan Hamilton - who sadly passed away yesterday aged 82.
Alan was instrumental in assisting club founders, Kerry Reynolds, and Mike Stillwell in getting the Porsche Club of Victoria off the ground back in 1975.

A legend in Australian Motorsport, and a passionate competitor, especially in Porsches, our thoughts are with his family and friends. 🕊️🏁

We welcomed autumn by holding round 2 of the season at the iconic Calder Park Raceway on Saturday 1 March.

This round was very generously sponsored by Luxury Auto Body. Based in Clifton Hill, they are a repairer and collision centre specialising in many sportscar brands including Porsche. Please take the time to show your gratitude and follow them on socials.

It was a slightly different format with a later start time that saw cars on track from 11.30am to just before 7pm, followed by drinks and nibbles where everyone relived every turn.

The motorsport committee arranged a fantastic event and booked perfect weather 👏👏👏. Bravo. And with the later run time and cooler air, the times got faster in the last sessions of the day.

And of course these days simple cannot run without our volunteer officials and marshalls. They do a fabulous job and we cannot thank them enough 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Is this post giving you FOMO? Curious to know whats its like? Keen to join the fun on track? Entree is the perfect way to get a safe start to tracking your Porsche (or Alpine in one case 🤣). Which segues to the final special call out to the volunteer mentors who are absolutely critical to the success of the entree program. Experienced drivers in the car with you to get you safely around the track, with tips and advice on all things tracking.

We had our first Club Night of the year, featuring the all-new electric Macan in the stunning new showroom of Porsche Centre Melbourne, Destination Porsche.

Our guest speaker was Dave Zoloto - COO Penske Automotive Group (owners of PCM, PCB & PCD) followed by PCM EV Specialist James den-Bakker to enlighten us on all the amazing technology in the recently launched Macan

Kayleen Mahony-Murelli also took the mic for a couple of minutes and encouraged the ladies in the club who “feel the need, the need for speed” to come along to a track day and legally drive fast!

Sincere thanks to Porsche Centre Melbourne for making available their new premises and sponsorship contribution. Sincere thanks also to Porsche Cars Australia for their sponsorship on the night, and for their ongoing support of PCV

Thanks also to our members Janet Kane and Rohan Connolly for the photos.

*Newsflash*

Sandown 300 Team Regularity Event - 23rd March 2025
(Entries open 17th January)

'Revitalised Iconic Challenge Awaits'

The is a long-standing, iconic event in the calendar, renowned for its history and competitive spirit.

This year, we’re thrilled to announce a refreshed and exhilarating edition of the event, designed to bring new challenges to drivers and teams. The Porsche Club of Victoria warmly welcomes both returning and new teams to take part in this exciting chapter of Sandown history. Get ready for an unforgettable weekend of teamwork, precision, and thrilling action on the track!

Exciting Changes to the 2025 Sandown 300 Team Regularity Event:

We’ve listened to your feedback and made some significant changes to the iconic Sandown 300 Team Regularity Event for 2025. These changes aim to create an even more exciting, safe, and fair competition for all participants.

Q&A Webinar - 7pm - Wednesday 15 January

To help you prepare for these changes and ensure all your questions are answered, we’re hosting a second webinar that will dive into the new format.

All questions welcome. Don’t miss this chance to stay informed and get a competitive edge!

Whether you’re a returning competitor or a new team looking to make your mark, these updates have been designed with you in mind. Join us for the Webinar to learn more about the new format and how to prepare for the 2025 Sandown 300 Team Regularity Event!

What's New?
One of the updates is the reduction of the event duration from 6 hours to 5 hours and changing to a 4 person team. This change will not only make the event more manageable but also maintain the intensity and thrill from start to finish. You’ll still experience the same action-packed day of racing, but in a more streamlined format that keeps everyone engaged right up to the final lap. Teams are fixed at 4 drivers, so drivers will get more time (and a 13 minutes Sunday am practice). are also running the day before, as in past years.

To ensure safety on the track and to reduce the variance in speed between cars, we’re introducing grouped sessions. The field will be divided into four groups based on nominated time, with Group 1 featuring the fastest cars and Group 4 catering to the slower vehicles. This structure minimizes the speed disparity between vehicles, making the event safer for all participants while maintaining the excitement of the competition. You will be driving amongst similar cars, similar drivers and similar times.

There will be no entrant minimum time.

Within each group, we’re implementing a seeding system that will pace out the cars on the track. By seeding cars based on their time within their group, we can better control driver's ability to match their nominated time without excess (disparate) traffic.

In addition to the group structure, we will have a max of two members per team in a Group so as to continue to provide for feedback from the Pit Wall.

The timing and scoring system will be identical to that enjoyed by drivers in past years, rewarding minimum total points per team per total team laps.

More track time. Cleaner lines. The splendor of Sandown.

On the eve of the final register run for 2024 it seems like an opportune time to thank the tireless efforts of the register captains that make these runs possible.

🚙 23 runs with over 700 attendees that has seen our members travel all over Victoria from Heathcote to Philip Island, from Merricks to Healesville.

2024 also saw the very first EV run and the launch of the Women’s and Young Members groups.

It has been the clubs biggest year to date!

It is no small effort to plan a run - from the route to the dining options. We are extremely grateful to these volunteers and in particular to the register director Paul Sbrissa.

We also take this opportunity to thank outgoing captain Ari, and to welcome Stephen who joins the group as a Turbo captain.

2025 is going to be bigger and better so stay tuned! And if you’re not yet a member, what are you waiting for?
