TSOAQ have previously advised that they are unable to organise a Mac’s Bridge for 2023.
The committee are currently investigating options for operating the event in 2024 and beyond.
At this time, it is looking highly likely that there will be a Mac’s Bridge Classic Car Display in 2024 with excellent prospects of continuing into the future.
We will keep classic car clubs and owners updated with developments as they evolve.
From TSOAQ Management and Mac’s Bridge Organising committees.

Mac’s Bridge Sports and Classic Car Festival – 22 May 2022
TSOAQ have reluctantly taken the decision to cancel the festival due to take place on 22nd May, due to the saturated condition of the Duncan Range. We recently completed an inspection of the facility and unfortunately there has been insufficient time for the ground to dry after the heavy summer and autumn rains. The waterlogged state of the area has not allowed the area to be mowed and there is minimal chance of the ground drying sufficiently to allow safe access for vehicles later in the month.
To those classic car owners who have already paid for their pre-entry tickets we will refund their moneys, can those owners with pre-entry tickets advise Murray their bank account details and we will organise a transfer.
The CHMC (Council of Heritage Motor Clubs) has gathered some suggestions and resources that may assist enthusiasts who have flood affected or water damaged historic vehicles.
This is a huge topic and there are many opinions and experiences out there with flood or water damaged vehicles.
This document is just a starter to help you focus your thought if you have such a vehicle.
It is now easier than ever to create an Impromptu Event using the Impromptu Event Creation guidelines produced by one of our Sunshine Coast members, Tony Brett.
Tony has produced an excellent document showing you how to create an Impromptu Event step-by-step, illustrated with the relevant screen shots.
There is no excuse now not to go out and enjoy your Jaguar at a time when so many official club events have been cancelled due to Covid.
The guide can be found via the Calender tab on the home page of our website.
The JDCQ audited accounts for 2021 are now available for members to peruse online or download prior to the AGM om Monday 22 November 2021.
