-Consistent Race schedules with Pro Practise for one hour on Saturday but also the inclusion of No Pro's on course for a different hour.
-New venue Mt Taylor, getting rave reviews.
-Hopefully some new track sections at Eildon and Baw Baw.
-Provisions for better prizes and prize money, and more trophys!!
-Same great atmosphere and excellent transport.
