Car enthusiasts from across the region will unite in their shared passion for motorsports at the return of Whitsunday Horsepower Day tomorrow on the Airlie Beach Sailing Club lawns.
Featuring the “genuine heroes of horsepower” – both drivers and their cars – the event is hosting upwards of a 75-vehicle display, an appearance by Supercar Driver Cameron Waters along with his Monster Energy V8, and vehicles from various racing categories.
The local community have been invited to the free entry event where rev-heads of the region will have a chance to revel in their passion.
Tevent will again contribute to local charities by raising funds and awareness for mental health groups including Whitsunday Suicide Prevention Network, Real Mates Talk, and Kick On.
Appointed Chair of Whitsunday Horsepower Heroes Inc. Colin Thomspson, said they’ll have plenty of racing teams alongside their Formula 3s, 2s, and burnout cars to name a few of the displays.
“The target for us, and what we’re working towards, is making the day a prelude event to the Townsville 500,” Mr Thompson.
“We’ve really gone all out this year: we’ll have jumping castles, a riding bull, two choppers for joy flights - an R66 and an ex-Army Huey - and loads of raffles throughout the course of the day.
“There’ll be door prizes, food all day from Sailing Club and racing celebrities like Cameron Waters; so, come out, have a family fun day, see things that you can’t normally see, especially the race cars.”
