This year’s Championships were hosted by Motorcycle Sportsmen of Queensland (Sporties) with support from Motorcycling Australia, Wynnum Marine, Pirelli and Motul.

It has been a good few years since Sporties have hosted the championships, and the month prior the Early Motorcycle Club of Queensland had run the Queensland Titles at the same track.
As a result a good number of the competitors had recent experience at the circuit, with this year’s championships attracting around 220 entries.
![220 entries was a good showing, but weather proved mixed across the two days...](https://www.mcnews.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/2022-AHRRC-Australian-Historic-5-1024x683.jpg)
There was practice and qualifying held on Friday, with racing getting underway on Saturday.

Unlike a lot of events in Australia in recent weeks, the weather was good for Saturday and the racers made the most of it. However, turn six seemed to be the problem-child turn on Saturday, with a number of riders falling off at that point of the circuit.

On Saturday evening the weather gods decided to create havoc at the track, within a short space of time more than 40 mm of water was deposited on the track.
That made for a wet and soggy time for lots of the folks camping at the track. Some decided to pack up early and head home. Like all historic meets, the field had also shrunk a little by Sunday due to mechanical issues with some of the bikes.
![Camping proved for the brave after afternoon rain totalling 40 mm on Saturday](https://www.mcnews.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/2022-AHRRC-Australian-Historic-Camping-1024x683.jpg)
Early Sunday morning saw more adverse weather, but as things progressed the marshals spent an hour or so clearing the track and getting things ready to race.
Racing was delayed around 20 minutes but as we got closer to a start the weather began to break and by 1030 the track was bathed in sunshine.
