The Gnowangerup Club did not have a track, they would race one week at Mount Barker, then the next week at Katanning and a once a year event at Albany on a temporary beach track.
The four members of the Gnowangerup club from Ongerup were Tony Hordern, Bernie Pocock, David Wanless and Harry Flynn.
Harry Flynn recalls: I raced my first Hot Rod as a member of the Gnowangerup club during 1970 1971.
