Gereral Information about whats going on in the world thats of interest to the members of the Jaguar Drivers Club of Queensland
A Call to All Members
My name is Di Cooper. I have been a Member since 1991, Badge No. 1964.
I was elected as the President of the JDCQ at last week’s AGM.
With your Committee I am looking forward to great things for you the Club Members for 2022.
Unfortunately we still have no Editor for our State Magazine, hence this method of keeping in touch instead of our January/February Magazine. (No Editor no Magazine).
Please think on this, and if you can help please contact Wendy Gross This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
or myself This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
Merry Xmas to you all. Hope to see you and your beautiful “Cats” at outings in the New Year.
Di Cooper.
President J.D.C.Q.
Have we got you thinking/ feeling a bit guilty/ considering a new hobby?
Things about being Editor of Jaguar Driver
What you don't have to do
What you do
If you have a problem
What's in it for you
Probably quite a few others I've missed in all categories. JDCQ needs this magazine; a lot of our members are not that tech savvy and when we did a bit of research the large majority have no wish to go digital.
Please, pretty please, think about it. Talk to June Whitehouse.
Her number is 0497089844 and her email is This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. She really didn't know much about computers when she started and knew nothing about digital publishing but responded to help the club. She's done a great job- you’ve all benefitted from her efforts. It will also help scare away dementia and you will learn heaps of things that will amaze your kids and grandies.
PLEASE>>>>>
The Secretary

We will have the use of both the National and Clubman circuits.

Driver training will also be available.
You will not be on track with much faster (or slower) cars. The object is to have a fun, safe time, not break lap records.

If you want your laps timed, you will need a timing transponder. These can be hired for $20 per day. ($100 deposit)
Wrist to ankle non synthetic clothing.
A roadworthy car. If your not sure, please get it checked.
Price will be $250 per car and an additional $100 per extra driver.
Queensland Raceway was chosen due to its safety. It has good run off areas with fewer things to hit than some other circuits. Nonetheless remember your car will not be insured while you are on the track.
Catering will not be available so bring your lunch but no alcohol is allowed.
You will be notified when entries open. Entries will be handled through Queensland Raceways via their online entry system.
