The Winton circuit was founded in 1957, and held the first meeting there in 1959, well before the HQ was on the design table.
The 3.0klm track is tight and demanding, drivers from V8's,Supercar , Superkarts, Motor Bikes all love the pressures that are placed on the body and mind to complete a fast lap on this circuit.The HQ's hold their Enduro at Winton every year.
This event the Ken Leigh HQ 4 Hour Endurance Classic is the bench mark for drivers and machines to test their personal stamina and their vehicle's mechanical ability.The event is held over Saturday and Sunday 2hours on each day, Two drivers share the drive time and on most occasions it is extremely hot (held early December).
The 2008 Enduro was won by the Trik Trailer Entry of Keven Stoopman and Andrew Williams. Their fastest lap time on Sunday was 1.48min quite amazing when you consider the age of the vehicle 35 years.
During the race year the HQ's have two other meeting at this circuit. So check out the calender for when we are at Winton, and come and have a look.Drivers from other classes like Historics,V8's all say the old Hq is a very different handling machine so the challenge is to get in and drive it's wheels off. 2008 Enduro 1st.
