Power From The Past is a perfect weekend of entertainment for the whole family. With a wide range of motor racing events, car displays and activities for the young and young-at-heart, Power is a great way to experience the history of Australian motor racing up close and personal.
Where
Power will be held on Saturday 12 and Sunday 13 April, 2008 at Symmons Plains International Raceway which is located on Midland Highway just 30km south of Launceston. Since the closure of Longford in the 1960s, it has been Tasmania’s premier motor racing facility.
The track is known for several interesting features including its very long back straight with a kink, its extremely tight hairpin bend at the end of the front straight and the unusual placement of the original start/finish line and grid on a curve. It is a truly spectacular track for spectators and drivers alike and Power From The Past will see many of the cars that raced on this track for the first time back in the 1960s, ‘70s and ‘80s return to race again.
With an excellent public viewing area and corporate entertaining facilities, Symmons Plains will remain the home of Power From The Past for many years to come.
