I
n our previous issue of Coffs Harbour Airport magazine, the major topic of discussion was the changes to the arrival and departure facilities and security screening in the terminal. After eight weeks of operation I am pleased to advise that these changed facilities and procedures are now functioning smoothly. Nevertheless we will continue to strive to improve our service standards as not all airport visitors are fully familiar with the changes. There is still some confusion concerning food and beverage services at the airport. So this is a reminder that you do not have to pass through security screening if wishing to enjoy a coffee and light snack. The new cafe bar in the arrival hall is accessed from the southern end of the terminal, has tables and chairs at which to sit, sip and enjoy panoramic views of aircraft and travellers as they arrive and depart Coffs Harbour. I am also pleased to say that many positive comments have been received from travellers, airport visitors and our airline partners. Since introducing the changes, there have been no delayed flight departures due to late check-in and security screening. On-time departures is a critical element of airport and airline operations in ensuring delivery of quality services to you, our most valued customer. And we aim to keep this as one of our primary objectives. With terminal changes bedded down, Coffs Harbour Airport is now focusing on infrastructure improvements outside the terminal. Two projects in particular are the relocation of the Bureau of Meteorology weather station to the inside of the airport operations area and resurfacing of the airport’s main runway. When next at the airport, look north and you will see men, plant and equipment at work building the new Bureau of Meteorology administration and weather monitoring station. Beside this are the bright blue ‘towers’ in which materials used for resurfacing the runway will be inserted, mixed and tested before being applied to strengthen and extend the life of the runway. For more information on these projects, see the story on the page opposite. It is expected these works will be finalised by late September or early October depending on the weather. When completed, the plant and equipment will be packed up and removed and the site restored to grass in keeping with the rest of the airport fields. Perhaps then routine operations will prevail for a while, but I suspect not for long as the aviation industry world-wide and in Australia is constantly evolving and so too must Coffs Harbour Regional Airport. Until next time, I wish you safe and happy travel wherever you may roam. Dennis Martin Airport Manager

ow that the arrival and departure halls and security screening facilities within the airport terminal are completed and functioning smoothly, the focus for further improvements in now on the outside. Two new projects have commenced on the northern part of the airport between the terminal and the general aviation precinct. One is the relocation of the Bureau of Meteorology to the inside of the airport perimeter fence and the other is preparation work for the resurfacing of the main runway.
Runway Resurfacing Plant. Copyright Rob Cleary - Seen Australia.
Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) The first stage which is now almost complete is site works and installation of new state of the art weather monitoring technology and equipment. The new site has been fenced, ground compounded and underground services installed. This has enabled work to proceed with installing the new equipment. Once installed and functioning, Coffs Harbour will have the same level of sophisticated weather monitoring capacity as Sydney Airport. The second stage of this project will be the construction and fit out of new offices for BOM staff. This is expected to commence mid to late September subject to weather. Once finished, this new facility will greatly assist BOM meteorologists prepare more accurate and timely atmospheric forecasts to improve the aviation safety on Coffs Coast.
Runway 03/21 Up-Grade The current runway is nearing the end of its
useful life. It is 23 years old and the normal life of a runway surface is somewhere between 12 and 15 years. Combined with the increasing number of flights, landing and taking off from Coffs Harbour Airport the time has come to resurface the main runway. However, before any resurfacing takes place, there is a great deal of preparatory work to complete. The first is the delivery and assembly of the plant and equipment that will be used to produce the required high grade and specialised resurfacing materials. This commenced 17 July when four semi-trailers delivered the batching and mixing equipment. Once on site, connecting and testing the equipment should be completed in four weeks. The next stage will be the production trials. The materials used for this project are a
mix of special gravel, compounds and binding agents that are needed to ensure the runway is capable of withstanding the weights and impacts of jet and turbo prop aircraft at takeoff and landing. Once engineers are satisfied the mixture is correctly calibrated a small test runway will be laid and measured to ensure it meets appropriate thickness, binding and consistency standards. Only when the test strip is approved will resurfacing of the main runway commence. This is expected to take over three weeks. Resurfacing will take place at night, one section at a time so as not to disrupt regular QantasLink, Brindabella Airlines, Virgin Australia and Tigerair services. So when next you visit the airport, look north and you will see the next stage of the ever improving services and facilities at Coffs Harbour Regional Airport. n

F
rom 22 until 29 September, Australian and international buskers will converge in Coffs Harbour to perform a mix of comedy, acrobatics and circus acts in the streets of Coffs Harbour. Perfect timing for the spring school holidays. This year 20 buskers and comedians will thrill, amaze and entertain locals and visitors alike. From New Zealand is The Wedding Team, Mim and Danny. Their performance is a mix of comedy and acrobatics with a spine tingling and dangerous finale putting an eclectic twist to the traditional big day. Another act is The Amazing Cal who hails

from Melbourne. Teetering on a tall ladder he walks around with torches setting his feet to fire and flame. Ouch. Also from Melbourne is the athletic and flexible trio, Acrobatica. They fly, jump, twist and spin. This is an entertaining act for people of all ages. This year children will be enthralled by three young buskers. There’s Magic Jake, a Coffs Harbour lad who will puzzle you with his wizard like tricks, Trickstar Rhys who can balance and make witty wisecracks at the same time and Balloon Maestro who is reputed to be the most talented balloon artist in the country – ask him to show you
how to make a googly eyed blue octopus in ten seconds flat. A special one-off action packed show for children is scheduled for Tuesday 24 September in the grounds of the Coffs Harbour Racing Club. Sponsored by NBN Television, the show is between 10am and 3.00pm. This is 5 hours of non-stop busking, fun and laughter. While most of the entertainment is family oriented, there will be three adult’s only shows titled ‘Comedy in the Raw’. Performances will be held in the Pier Hotel on Harbour Drive near the Coffs Harbour

marina. Two stand-up comics and two busking acts will provide a mix of acrobatics and social commentary. One is Jeremy Elwood a Canadian expat now residing in New Zealand. His show is a mix of rock and roll music with social commentary and audience participation. So be prepared to be part of the show if he comes towards you. Another adult’s only performance will be in the Sawtell RSL Club with Tahir, a bawdy stand-up comedian who is a regular on The Footy Show. While most activity will be staged in Coffs Harbour’s CBD, performances will also be held in other venues. Family shows will be held in the North Coast Botanic Gardens, the Hoey Moey hotel and Park Beach Holiday Park. This year a very special show will be staged in the closed-off main street of tree-lined Sawtell Village. For three hours from 5 pm, Tuesday 25 September, the street will be adorned with gleaming chrome and creative coloured paintwork of around 150 hot rod vehicles belonging to members of the Valla Park Hot Rod club.

COFFS CARTOON CAPITAL BY FRAN STEPHENSON
I
s it something to do with the iconic Big Banana that makes the people of Coffs Harbour laugh so much? Well it is shaped like a big cheesy grin. But more likely it’s because Coffs Harbour is the home to one of the largest collections of cartoons in the world and that’s plenty to laugh about, or at. Coffs Harbour, the major city on the Coffs Coast in northern New South Wales is one of Australia’s foremost holiday destinations. However, although known for its natural beauty, visitors don’t come to the area for this alone. As home to Australia’s only dedicated cartoon gallery - the Bunker Cartoon Gallery - Coffs Harbour is recognised as the nation’s cartoon capital. Cartoon lovers visit in droves for a good healthy chuckle and a dose of fun and laughter. Constructed in 1943 during World War 2, the underground bunker building was once used as an underground air force communications facility and played a vital role in protecting aircraft and shipping along the east coast of New South Wales. After the war the bunker continued to be used by the Department of Civil Aviation up until 1980 then, having outlived its usefulness, it became a redundant, derelict piece of Australia’s war time history. Around that time the Rotary Club of Coffs Harbour City was running a cartoon
competition in which the entered works were donated to form the Coffs Cartoon Collection. Local Rotarian and avid cartoon collector, the late John Champion, saw the disused bunker as an ideal home for the growing collection and as they say ‘the rest is history’. On August 24, 1996, the Bunker Cartoon Gallery officially opened its doors as Australia’s first and only dedicated cartoon gallery – a title which it still proudly holds today. The Bunker now houses the bulging Coffs Cartoon Collection which consists of over 17,000 cartoons, most of which are original works, from leading Australian and international cartoonists. The Collection is considered to be the largest, most comprehensive cartoon collection in the southern hemisphere and one of the largest cartoon collections in the world. It includes works dating back as far as 1931 and amongst its treasures are works from all five of the cartoonists of the iconic Australian comic strip, Ginger Meggs, which span 90 years. This year the Rotary celebrates its 25th anniversary and cartoonists from all over Australia will descend on Coffs Harbour for a weekend of cartooning fun to be held October 25, 26, and 27. Laughter is mandatory. Visit www.rotarycartoonawards.com.au n

The Spice Cellar
Peaches has got you covered there too with an excellent selection of bottled beers and wine, mostly hailing from California and New York, with a couple of Aussie favourites thrown into the mix. It’s the cocktails though, that really set this place apart.

Inspired by the tapas eateries in Barcelona, cocktail bars in Amsterdam and nightclubs in Berlin, The Spice Cellar seamlessly fuses music, drinks, art, fashion, design and food. The Spice Cellar is a playground for adults, transforming from lounge and tapas bar during the week to a pulsing nightclub over the weekend with high profile DJ’s mixing from the booth. The venue itself is a Pandora’s Box of nooks and casual settings, with scattered lounge seating and coffee tables offering a wide variety of set up’s for events or parties with food and drink menus customised to every budget and scale.

Seamlessly blending the sensual flavours’ of North Africa with the sumptuous savoury style of Southern Spain, Afous aims to introduce Sydney siders to the tantalising aromas of Moroccan cuisine. Afous
A Berber name hailing from Omar’s parents’ tribe in Morocco, Afous literally means “perfume of life” – an apt name for the aromas wafting from the kitchen! There’s a range of tapas options for light eaters such as Moroccan meatballs or herb scented tomato bread and for those with a more hearty appetite try the seafood paella, the fish tanjine or the lamb, slowly simmered in spices and honey. Yum! The deserts offer another sensory vacation with exciting twists on some old favourites like the orange blossom panna cotta! Enveloped in a warm fit out, rich in recycled wood, Afous prides itself on the old world charm and eco-friendly details of the restaurant. No detail is left out, from entrance through a beautiful reconstructed church door down to the business cards which are printed on recycled paper. Starting in July, Afous also introduced candlelight nights every Tuesday of the month to save energy – and create the perfect atmosphere for a date night! Omar’s recreation of the authentic Moroccan experience through the design, the food and the service is all part and parcel of why Afous ranks among the best. Book now for a memorable dining experience, complete with flavours straight from a foodie’s dream! n

Even better still, high fibre food is low in fat and high in lots of healthy nutrients, therefore a major preventative to a myriad of diseases ranging from digestive dysfunction to hormonal issues. There are compounds called isoflavonoids and lignans found in fibre that will cleanse the body of harmful toxins, and even inhibit cancer growth. Dietary fibre is essential for health and can only be found in plant foods – animal foods such as meat, cheese and eggs have no fibre. Did you also know that fibre is a carbohydrate and can’t easily be digested, so it does not contribute to the calorie intake of the diet. There are two major types of fibre – soluble and insoluble.

SOLUBLE FIBRE Soluble fibre is often described as mucilaginous or slippery since it has the capacity to carry lots of water thereby forming a gel. This can help
lower LDL (‘bad’) cholesterol, while maintaining HDL (‘good’) cholesterol and help constipation or the symptoms of irritable bowel. Soluble fibre is found in fruit and vegetables, some cereals (eg. oats, barley), psyllium, linseed, slippery elm and in legumes (dried peas, beans and lentils). INSOLUBLE FIBRE Insoluble fibre is often described as ‘roughage’. This fibre is more resistant to digestion, and is fermented by bacteria to produce special fatty acids for the health of the gut wall. Insoluble fibre is found mainly in wholegrain foods (especially wheat bran and rice bran), the skins of fruits and vegetables, nuts and dried beans. It helps prevent constipation by producing bulky stools and speeding bowel transit time. RESISTANT STARCH Resistant starch is found in whole grains, cold cooked potatoes, lentils, and firm bananas. Resistant starch is fermented in the gut, resulting in beneficial effects on the bowel and blood cholesterol levels. n

This is to cook the asparagus while your eggs are poaching. Break the eggs into a cup to ensure the yolks are intact. Fill a deep-sided saucepan with at least 10 cm (4 in) of simmering water. Add the vinegar to the water. Stir the water with a spoon, creating a small whirlpool. Drop the eggs one at a time into the centre of the whirlpool. The water will settle and the eggs should form an oval. While
the eggs are cooking, chargrill or toast the bread. Place the asparagus in the steamer for 90 seconds. Remove pan from heat and squeeze lemon juice on top of asparagus. Place toast on a plate and arrange the watercress or rocket (arugula) leaves and asparagus on top. Remove the eggs with a slotted spoon and drain well. Place the eggs on the toast and asparagus, sprinkle with the parmesan shavings and season with Celtic salt and cracked black pepper.

FIGHTING FIT
Get Fighting Fit! (And learn some kickass moves in the process)
I
f you want to cut the fat, work off the after work beers and get yourself some abs then a simple at home boxing circuit can work wonders and have you on your way to a Hugh Jackman 6 pack in no time.
Warm up Skip for 2 minutes – If you don’t have a skipping rope (go buy one!) or just imagine you have one in your hands and make the full actions as if you are skipping with a rope– your body will receive the same benefits.
Shadow box with a 1 jab & cross Throw your jab then your cross, pause, then repeat the movement. Do this for 2 minutes making sure you are keeping your core tight and putting power into the punches. But don’t overextend your arms or you will do damage to your shoulders. Make sure once you throw your jab you bring your fist straight back to just below your chin and do the same with your cross.
2 Star jumps Begin in a relaxed stance with your feet together and your arms by your side. To begin the move, jump your legs wide apart while at the same time bringing your arms touching over your head and return to your starting position. Repeat without stopping for 1 minute. Push yourself – move as quick as you can and keep your arms straight touching your hands together overhead.
3 Shadow box with uppercuts Get your stance, engage your core and stand strong, then use your left hand to throw an uppercut, then the right hand. Pause and reset then repeat. Continue for 2 minutes. Remember boxing is all about technique the better your technique the better your workout.

4 Push-ups Lie flat on the floor with your hands slightly wider than shoulder width. Tuck your toes so they are under your feet. Raise your body up off the floor by pushing your body up, extending your arms and keeping your body straight. Return to the start touching your chest to the ground briefly then push straight back up again. Repeat for 1 minute.
6 Squats
Shadow box 5 with hooks
Stand up straight chest up, shoulders back. Place your feet shoulder-width apart or slightly wider. Your hips should be stacked over your knees and your knees over your ankles. Extend your arms straight out in front of you so they are parallel to the ground, palms facing down, keep your head facing forward and look straight ahead. Take your hips back while you bend your knees; imagine you are sitting in a chair. Remember your knees should not extend past your toes. Press your weight back into your heels and push through your heels to bring yourself back to your starting position, standing upright. Squeeze your butt and legs throughout the movement and go deep. Feel the burn. Do this for 2 minutes, no rest.
Get your stance, engage your core and stand strong. Left hand throws a hook which is a punch at 45 degree angle, and then your right hand throws a hook. Pause reset. Go again. Continue for 2 minutes.
7 Crunch Start lying flat on your back with your knees up and your hands behind your head. Use your abdominals to crunch up. Don’t pull on your head or neck as you lift up. Do this for 2 minutes.
Boxing Circuit Intensity Beginners Level – Shadow box with no dumbbells, push-ups and plank can be done on your knees Intermediate Level – Shadow box with dumbbells, push-ups and plank on toes -complete the boxing circuit twice.
8 Plank Lie face down on floor. Make a triangle by placing your palms on the floor and resting on your forearms. Make sure your elbows are under your shoulders. Push off the floor rising up onto your toes keeping your back flat and in a straight line from head to heels. Tilt your pelvis and contract your abdominals to prevent rear end from sticking up in the air or sagging in the middle. Hold for 1 minute.
Advanced Level – Shadow box using heavier dumbbells, push-ups and plank on your toes and bring one foot off the ground (alternate feet), add dumbbell to your squat and increase the time completing each activity. Complete the boxing circuit three times. Tip – record how many star jumps, push ups and squats you do in the allocated time and try to beat your number in your next round of the boxing circuit or next training session.

Vance Joy INFLIGHT PUBLISHING WRITER OLIVIA LEACH HAD A CHAT TO MELBOURNE SINGER/SONGWRITER VANCE JOY ABOUT HIS RECENT SUCCESS WITH ARIA TOPPING SINGLE ‘RIPTIDE’.
S
o first off, Your EP God Loves You When You’re Dancing, and specifically your song ‘Riptide’ has become a tremendous hit. How did it feel when the song started topping the charts? Did you expect this sort of success? No I didn’t at all. I had a good feeling about the songs as I was writing them. They were catchy but I wasn’t expecting this much success. But I guess you just put something out into the universe with the hope that other people will like it.
Kimberley Fishing and Diving
You performed at Splendor this year and I heard you packed out the GW Mckellen stage on the Saturday. What was that experience like? It was really cool, so many people turned up! I normally perform to a crowd of around 300 people so splendor was definitely a step up. The whole tent was full of people and I was standing back stage watching the performances before me, getting more and more nervous. It was hectic. You’ve had a hectic couple of months, performing across the US and Canada as well as Australia, do you get a different reaction from the crowd overseas then you do at home in Australia? Well of course there is a lot more awareness here but it’s also nice to perform to a crowd who doesn’t know you. It’s kind of cool to be anonymous. The performance feels fresher. Not so much pressure! Also even though they didn’t know me, music is universal. A good melody connects to everyone on different levels.
Sep-Nov is when the fishing and Rowley Shoals diving are best in the Kimberley. 5 nights starts at $3290 pp

This month you’ll be on the road with your own ‘Riptide’ tour which is soon to be sold out. What can fans expect from the tour? Well this tour is me and also my band. I’ve got a couple of new songs that I’m going to perform which aren’t on the EP so no one will have heard those yet. And, of course there will be all the songs from my EP. My band and I have been working a lot together lately so we are definitely getting more comfortable performing which should make a difference in this tour. I can imagine you’ve got a busy year ahead of you, what else have you got planned? Can we expect new releases from Vance Joy any time soon? Well an album is definitely on the cards; hopefully I will be releasing a new album sometime next year. I’ve been working a lot on writing new material and also rehearsing with the band. That’s probably the two main things on the agenda. n

The Cairns region in Queensland sits at the gateway to PNG and the Asia Pacific, and has built a long standing and well developed trade relationship with PNG. This was demonstrated at the second annual Australia & PNG Mining Resources Exhibition which took place in June this year with the many and varied exhibitors offering their services, products and expertise. With more than 1300 attendees and 150 exhibitors, the second annual Australia & PNG Mining Resources Exhibition was a huge success. With support from businesses across Australia and PNG, expo goers were shown the latest and greatest in products and services available to the mining and resources industry. The Fred Moule Building at the Cairns Showgrounds was full over the two days in June and the hustle and bustle of the expo was exciting for all. Especially for event Organiser Keryn Haynes who said she was really happy with the result. “We increased our exhibitors by nearly 50 this year and it was great to have the building filled. We also had external sites in the arena with a great mix of goods on display ranging from solar panels and communications systems
to transportable homes and high powered machinery,” Keryn said. “And inside we offered a fabulous setting on a mezzanine level where exhibitors could entertain potential clients in a relaxed atmosphere on a more personal level.” This year’s expo attracted representatives of
the mining and resources industry from Papua New Guinea and Australia including delegates from Ok Tedi, Barrick, Morobe Mining Joint Venture, MMG, Century Mine, Newcrest, and Rio Tinto to name a few. “We are hoping next year’s expo will have the same great support from businesses but also an increase in support from people coming along to view the products,” Keryn said. “We want to keep growing bigger and better and there is already a lot of interest for 2014.” Events such as the Expo not only demonstrate the region and industry’s broad capabilities and innovation, but also provide visitors and exhibitors with an effective way of making new contacts, meeting old friends and finding solutions to their needs. Cairns is located 1.5 hours from Port Moresby with over 24 direct flights a week, and good connections to the rest of PNG. Flight schedules enable a cost effective full business day trip. Direct charters also operate from Cairns. For information, including details on how you can become an exhibitor or register as a delegate at next year’s Expo, visit www.tradeshoworganisers.com.au or phone Keryn on 07 3891 7793.

World Rally Championship takes on Coffs Coast’s curves
O
ne of the greatest shows in world motorsport will land in the Coffs Coast on September 12-15. Coates Hire Rally Australia will bring the world's best rally drivers for Round 10 of the FIA World Rally Championship. Widely regarded as the most challenging international motorsport series, the FIA World Rally Championship takes drivers and cars on an epic adventure to 13 countries in 2013. Roads range from the ice and snow of Scandinavia to the rocky tracks of Greece and massive high-speed jumps of Finland to the unique forest and rural stages of the New South Wales Coffs Coast. Australia’s “other” FIA World Championship event, alongside the Formula 1 Australian Grand Prix, will tackle more than 350 kilometres of competition stages on the scenic forest tracks and rural roads of the Coffs Coast region. Australia is one of 13 countries that host the WRC and since 1988 has carried a reputation for extreme excitement and outstanding organisation. Up to 100 cars, including around 30 from top overseas teams, are expected to contest the event, which runs over three nights and three days. Driving stars including Sebastien Ogier (France), Mikko Hirvonen and Jari-Matti Latvala (Finland), Evgeny Novikov (Russia), Sheikh Khalid Al Qassimi (Abu Dhabi) and Dani Sordo (Spain) will thrill spectators with their high-speed skills on the daytime rural Special Stages and nightly ARMOR ALL Super Special Stage. Spectating will be easy at almost 30 dedicated points on the daytime Special Stages all less than an hour’s drive north, west or south of the Coffs Harbour base. On Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights, the Rally Hub at Brelsford Park near the Coffs CBD hosts the arena-style ARMOR ALL Super Special Stage, entertainment and the busy teams’ Hi-Tec Oils Service Park.

An epic adventure T
he WRC was established in its current format in 1973 and the first Rally Australia was staged in the Perth region in 1988. From 2009 it has been run in New South Wales with the assistance of the State Government’s Destination NSW tourism and events organisation, local councils and commercial partners. In 2013 those partners includes QantasLink, which will fly many international competitors and visitors into Coffs Harbour Airport. A rally is easy to follow, whether or not you’re

a diehard fan. Drivers tackle special stages on closed, mostly-public roads, running one at a time against the clock. During the special stages, a co-driver (navigator) reads “pace notes” to guide the driver on the speed and severity of corners and other hazards. At the Service Park – rally’s version of the pits – the cars and drivers make periodic visits for repairs and replenishment. It’s a show in itself to watch some of the world’s best mechanics complete major repairs literally in minutes.
It’s Party Time S
tunt pilots, singers and the world’s fastest rally drivers will combine to make Coates Hire Rally Australia a spectacular and entertaining experience. Ticket holders will be treated to nightly entertainment at the Brelsford Park Rally Hub, close to the centre of Coffs Harbour. The stars of the WRC will display their dazzling driving skills on the ARMOR ALL Super Special Stage course every night at Brelsford Park and during the day on traditional rally stages on forestry and rural roads. Entertainment highlights include – • Samantha Jade – 2012 X Factor winner, performing at the Rally Hub on Saturday night • The Red Bull Stunt Plane – Friday and Saturday over the Rally Hub and Sunday over the Flooded Gum Rally Village spectator point • The RAAF Roulettes stunt team – Friday and Saturday over the Rally Hub and Sunday over the Flooded Gum Rally Village spectator point • Freestyle Moto-X, featuring X Games gold medalist and Nitro Circus star Cam Sinclair – Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights at the Rally Hub • Thunderstruck – AC/DC tribute band, performing at the Rally Hub on Friday night • Skydivers over the Rally Hub • Live TV on a giant Screen at the Rally hub • Australia’s Top 10 off road racers action demonstration – Thursday night at the Rally Hub • The Cloud 9 Ultimate Destination premium viewing facility • Historic Group B Audi Quattro S1 and MG Metro 6R4 demonstration runs – Rally Hub The Rally Hub also will be home to the teams’ Hi-Tec Oils Service Park, where rally cars will be repaired and replenished several times a day when they return from the competition Special Stages. The Service Park will be open to ticket holders throughout the event, allowing them to see the high-tech rally cars up-close, watch skilled mechanics race against the clock or even catch up with a driver for an autograph or photo. The ARMOR ALL Super Special Stage will use a former velodrome in Brelsford Park plus a closed section of Park Avenue for a 1.8 kilometre speed test twice on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights. Cars will compete two-at-a-time against the clock from starting points on opposite sides of the banked track, with spectators enjoying excellent viewing from elevated positions. “It will be a huge party, combining awesome rally action and musical and extreme-sport entertainment to thrill every spectator. The atmosphere in Coffs Harbour and surrounding areas will be fantastic,” Event Manager David Catchpole promises. “All this is free to Coates Hire Rally Australia ticket holders. Spectators can choose which rally stages and entertainment attractions they want to see or get the lot – including a grandstand seat – with a WRC Event Super Pass pass priced at $215.”

Car makers’ battleground
The WRC’s consumer relevance is one of its strongest attractions. Though highly-modified, World Rally Cars start life as popular small hatchbacks like any spectator might drive. They must be road-legal to drive to the competitive stages, which are run on normal roads in real-world conditions. This relevance, the geographic spread of events and massive media following makes the WRC a valuable marketing platform for car makers. At various levels, Volkswagen, Ford, Citroen, Mini, Skoda, Peugeot and several others brands enter the WRC to showcase and prove their products. Korea’s Hyundai will be on the stages from 2014. The cars competing at the top level of the sport are based on four-cylinder 1.6 litre production cars. But while they might resemble the $15,000$20,000 models found in a showroom, upgrades to the engine, transmission, suspension, brakes, body and safety gear result in a wild-looking monster costing hundreds of thousands of dollars. With more than 30 horsepower and fourwheel drive, a WRC car can accelerate from rest to 100kmh in around three seconds – faster than most supercars. Top speed depends upon the gearing chosen for each rally, but 220kmh is not unusual. But World Rally Cars are not the only type of vehicle on the WRC stages. The championship also includes three support series for different classes of car, called WRC2, WRC-3 and Junior WRC.

Even more action off-road A round of the Australian Off Road Championship offers rally visitors even more choices of action to see. Round four of the championship will be run on Saturday and Sunday 14-15 September on a 60km loop course located on private land and the adjoining Glenugie State Forest, north of Coffs Harbour. Off-road racers are very different to rally cars in appearance, technical specifications and performance. Loud high-horsepower V8 engines often drive two- or four-wheel drive transmissions; suspensions have extra-long travel so vehicles can race over rough terrain at speed and make spectacular jumps. Adult tickets cost $15 a day or $25 for the week.
Sport business The 2011 Rally Australia attracted more than 13,000 individual visitors to the Coffs Coast, generating more than 64,000 bed nights and a net economic impact of $14.8 million, according to Destination NSW, a key supporter of the event. As well as boosting visitor numbers, the rally provides an unmatched showcase for the Coffs Coast region through a massive television audience. In 2012, the average TV audience for rounds of WRC was more than 77 million. In 2013, dedicated TV coverage totalling around three hours will be broadcast around the world. In Australia, it will appear on Network Ten and Speed TV (check guides for local times).

“Anyone who has driven inland from the coast 800kms or more gets that sense of vastness, the harsh and dusty beauty of the landscape. The light has a different quality to it, due to the lack of pollution and moisture, there is an intensity of colour, that, as a painter, continues to inspire and challenge me.” – John Murray John Murray – Australia’s leading ‘Outback’ artist – painting dirt tracks so realistic you’ll believe your standing on them, depicting the Aussie favourite “Budgie Smugglers”, drawing inspiration from all aspects of bush life and creating masterpieces you wont believe were painted by hand.
