Saturday 3rd & Sunday 4th October 2020
Horsepower Rally 2020 is a fundraising event to raise funds for the erection of a new shed for the storing and protection of vintage tractors at the South Canterbury Traction and Transport Museum facilities in Brosnan Road, Washdyke, Timaru.
This shed will complement the recently built Transport shed that now houses over 30 classic trucks and is already all but overflowing. In conjunction with the funding of the shed, $2 from every gate entry taken will be donated to a local charity within South Canterbury and helps anyone in need.
This event will run over 2 days, Saturday 3rd & Sunday 4th October 2020 at the well-equipped Levels International Motor Raceway in Levels, Timaru.
Due to the hard work of the committee it is envisaged there will be upwards of 1000 entries on show. In this number there will be vintage and classic trucks, tractors, traction engines, cars of all make and models, stationery engines, military equipment and anything that has HORSEPOWER - a petrol heads heaven!
Horsepower Rally 2020 will be a fun event for the whole family with entertainment, music, food, fun activities, with displays happening all day long.
Machines can be on the grounds from Friday 19th mid-day with the show starting 9.30am Saturday.
