Thank you all again for being part of our passion and always remember to keep it on the track and not the streets

The 20th Anniversary celebrations of the Shepparton Valvoline Springnats are making a welcome return to the Shepparton Showgrounds on the traditional last weekend of November with this year confirmed dates being the 23rd to 25th November 2012.
This year promises to be bigger than ever for the famous Shepparton event with many inclusions to mark this milestone.

Now into its 20th year the Valvoline Springnats is Victoria’s LARGEST performance car festival that provides the true motor vehicle enthusiast with the opportunity to display their skills and vehicles against other enthusiasts in a safe, controlled and friendly environment.
The venue for the 2012 Springnats is the Shepparton Showgrounds which will again prove an ideal central location with its unique, ready-made paved areas suited to driving events and brand new indoor facilities that was very well received by both participants and spectators alike.

The Valvoline Springnats will again be all about admiring the best cars in the land including Street Machines, Hot Rods, Kustoms, Restored / Authentic as well as Imports and spending quality time with family and friends, whilst witnessing some of the most powerful cars compete side by side in Hi Octane Action Events such as Go To Whoa, Autokana, Indoor and Outdoor Show N Shine, Dyno Challenge, Autofest Corkscrew and everyone’s favourite the fiercely competitive Burnout Title.

The Valvoline Autofest Series includes, Springnats as well as our other events that have been held at Murray Bridge SA, Corowa NSW, Mount Gambier SA and our all new NSW event to be held each year in March at the Australian Mecca of Motorsport, Mount Panorama Bathurst. Autofest events attract 100’s of entrants and many thousand spectators over the weekends providing unique environments to compare and compete.

All our events are alcohol free and thus promote a true family atmosphere where spectators are able to enjoy the enthusiasm and excitement of a motor vehicle event in a friendly environment. This has been evidenced by the fact of strong crowd attendances consisting largely of families of all ages.

The Valvoline Autofest Series of events present themselves as fantastic marketing tools for companies to profile their products and/or services.

Would be great to see you and some of the other club memebers up at Springnats. We are also in discussions in bringing a similar event to Melbourne, who would support this?

I'm all for car events in Melbourne it helps make it just that little bit more affordable

I'd be all over an event in Melbourne!
