Editor's Notes:
My thanks to noted historian and author Graham Howard who supplied the additional “Pre-History” of the NSW Hillclimb Championship going back to 1949, when the Championship was run as a single event.
I am eager to expand the historic content of the website to record this important heritage. If you know of any useful motosport photos or data please email me so we can make use of it or pass it on to Graham to preserve.
