NEW NAME - NEW DATE! The “Tour De’ Course - Queensland” is the new name for the Event previously known as “The Indy Rally”. With the shift of Event date away from the “Indy” week, Motoring Events Management has reverted to their event “brand” that was first used in Victoria in 1998. The “Indy” event that has run for the past five years was modeled on the original Tour De’ Course events from 1998 through 2001 before that event evolved into a national series under separate organisers and branding. Motoring Events have retained the Tour De’ Course brand and now re-introduce it with the Tour De’ Course – Queensland. It is scheduled for the Event to be conducted from Thursday 14 August through Saturday 16 August, moving from the previous October date. The Event has also been re-configured to run over three days, one day less than the “Indy” and with a finish on the Saturday and the Presentation Dinner to be held on the Saturday night, this allowing competitors the Sunday to return home. The Tour De’ Course will remain faithful to the balance of varied competitions at premium and challenging venues coupled with strong camaraderie and social events. Please read on for further details, we hope you can join us. Navigation? The format of this event is that there is no competitive Navigation.
