STREETKHANA

The Streetkhana is a timed driving test to complete a course against the clock including manoeuvring around cones and parking in a designated space. Not easy but very spectacular.

The spectators on the banked seating provided for great viewing.

Peter Pelletier The Canadian Import (or the Mad Canadian as he is often called) & his '27 Ford Roadstar performing infront of the Gisborne crowd.

Bryan Scott & his '39 Plymouth as he set off to compete in the Burn Out Competition which is a real crowd pleaser with squealing tyres & lots of smoke. Bryan was also the organiser of the Rod Run to Tolaga Bay.
