Someone
a hell of a lot smarter than myself once said;
"What
has been, will be again"
So
have a look at where we have been and from that, maybe you can work out
where we will go? No definite's here folks, only maybe's. But it's a start.

Shannons
"Days of THUNDER"
(who would
have thought "Hollywood Ross" would come up with such a name?!)
2 days of "THUNDAH"
is what's looming in late May. The poor old muscle car shootout
has gone the way of the Do-Do, but this event promises to be bigger,
better, badder and most importantly "Thundery".
A clever mix of muscle and
sports cars, that promises to see some brilliant stoushes between
Shelby's, Vette's, De Tomaso, GT Falcon's, Torana's Porsche's and
maybe a MOPAR or two (That would be nice!)
We love the concept and will
be running our;
- Allan Moffat Trans Am Mustang
- The Thunderous Norm Beechey Monaro.
31st of May
-1st of June, 2008 at Queensland Raceway

4-8th
of July 2007
This is
the big one as far as the crew at Bowden's Own are concerned! A
tarmac rally for classic and modern exotic sports and touring cars,
to be conducted annually on the beautiful Sunshine Coast. AKA Bowden's
Own HQ!
Limited
to only 250 entrants (EEEEEP! Get in ASAP!!!!!)
It's a 4 day
event, based around Noosa. It extends as far north as Gympie, as
south as Samford and west to Kilcoy, for a grand total of 980 kilometers,
200 of which will be closed road competitive stages!! Each day will
start with a run up my favourite; the Noosa Hillclimb.
This is going
to be FREAKING awesome & we can't wait! Start preparing, as
it will come up very quick.
We will be
entering our:
1955 300SL Gullwing (Hmmmm....Which
navigator today?!)

1964 MK2
AC Cobra
(That's Ralph
Lauren's 250LM, & if he comes out for the rally, we'll kick
his butt again!)

1965 Ford GT40

1973 Carrera
RS Porsche (The white one, that jumps when it sees a mouse)

The
Bowden's Own team
are
off to the
Goodwood
Festival
of
Speed!
You
read it here first folks!
We
can't say the what, where and whens yet. But we can say we are completely
flattered with Lord March's invitation & that we will be there
& competing, with a rather nice and unique Australian car.
With
Dan 'Gurney' Bowden behind the wheel in his first international
campaign, Michael Schumacher has registered interest in coming out
of retirement, purely to challenge the multiple Noosa Hillclimb
champion, says his jealous and much better looking brother.
"Schuey
knew this was coming, so he copped out and retired early." Says
'Gurney' Bowden "Everywhere I go & every discipline of Motorsport
I enter into, people are retiring, it is becoming far too frequent
just to be a coincidence. How am I ever going to know how good I
truly am, if everyone "retires", as soon as I come to their continent?
I think it is bloody un-Australian." Says the lesser of the two
brothers, in a revealing interview with Woman's Day magazine.
Stay
tuned for more details

Car racing (LOVELY!) , interviews with legendary drivers and hot

If
you like your motorsport served up sideways with plenty of chrome
metal and horsepower don't miss Eastern Creek Raceway's 2006 Australian
Muscle Car Masters on the Seven Network, 1pm Saturday December 23,
2006, check your local guides.
Well,
I don't know if you caught it, but it was the best bit of TV
I
have seen this Christmas break, hands down!!
The
in car footage of Mr Stubber and Co. was a real highlight. I was
suprised how thrilling it was to watch and makes me pine for the
old days where a bit of sideways was the way to get the most out
of your production based car!
Screw
the older you get, the better it was! IT
WAS BETTER.
Good
on you Chevron and AMC for the day and thanks Channel 7 for putting
it on. But I must ask the question, where was Mike Raymond?
Everyone
show there appreciation and buy a DVD & see you at the Masters
in 2007!
