April 19, 2022 Filed Under: News

NSW will take centre stage in 2022 with the NSW Speedway Sports Committee announcing the 2022 NSW Speedway Solo Super Series where junior and senior riders from across Australia will compete in one of the most entertaining forms of motorsport on the planet.

The ‘Super Series’ will be held over four rounds from May to August with the opening round scheduled for 14th May at Woodstock Park Speedway Cowra, followed by Oakburn Park Raceway Tamworth (18th June), Loxford Park Speedway Kurri Kurri ( TBC July) and the final round at Diamond Park Speedway in Albury on 6th August 2022.

Interim MNSW CEO, Lauren Werrin said “This series has been developed by the MNSW Speedway Sports committee with the aim to increase participation in the discipline and bring a speedway roadshow to regional NSW.

It’s an opportunity to build and reinvigorate the sport after two turbulent years of COVID-19. It’s wonderful to see our Speedway Sports Committee being proactive in this space and I’m very excited to see the series opener in 2022”. Classes for the NSW Speedway Solo Super Series will cover all age groups from the grassroots 50cc demonstration class through to 125cc and 250cc juniors and 500cc senior riders, who are embarking on the next step of their motorcycling career.

MNSW Sport Development Manager, Adam Brook said “This is a fantastic opportunity for Motorcycling NSW to focus on junior development, it allows our riders a pathway and platform to the national and international stage, and with 14 NSW speedway riders currently racing professionally overseas, it puts a spotlight on the talent we are producing in NSW”.

The series will offer a tangible speedway product which will profile and build longevity of the discipline for many years to come. Opportunities for sponsorship and television coverage are available.

MORE RACES ADDED TO BATHURST RETURN

February 23, 2022 Filed Under: News

The programme of events for the long awaited return of motorcycle racing to the Bathurst Showground has been expanded to include a Maters Shootout, a series of match races for the top riders that is certain to excite fans.

Saturday March 5 is locked in for race day, after practice on the Friday, for the Bathurst Long Track Masters meeting, more than four years since the last time the venue hosted racing.

 

If 111 events across 14 classes of competition were not enough, organisers have now added another feature to be staged around what is normally the tea break for the meeting.

The timing of that break in racing is invariably dictated by the setting sun with officials cautious about sending off a full field of machines looking in to the setting sun low in the western sky.

 

Instead the series of match races will involve just two machines at a time, and they will be the best performed riders up to that point in the programme.

There will be four classes for the Masters Shootout – Pro 450 and Over 40s / Unlimited 2-stroke machines, long track sliders and the two three-wheel classes, namely dirt track sidecars and speedway sidecars.

Lap times recorded in qualifying heats during the afternoon will determine the three fastest in the sidecar classes and five fastest in the two-wheel classes.

The Shootout format is simple – the two slowest qualifiers will have a one-lap match race with the loser eliminated and the winner progressing to take on the next fastest of the qualifiers.

 

For the last two riders it will be a ‘dash for cash’ with only the winner taking the prizemoney from local businesses Bustin’ Free Earthworks and Schumack Engineering.

The last meeting at Bathurst Showground back in 2017 saw the Shootout staged as a series of time trials and one of those winners Mackenzie Childs is back this year aiming for a repeat success in the Pro 450 class.

Fans should remember they can secure their tickets now via the website https://www.eventbrite.com.au/o/panorama-motorcycle-club-long-track-40142513283

JUNIOR SPEEDWAY STARS CHASE TITLE – THIS SATURDAY

February 4, 2022 Filed Under: Dirt Track, News, Newsletters, Speedway, State Championship

Some of Australia’s best junior speedway riders will be on the Central Coast this Saturday (February 5) when the M & K Eklund Transport New South Wales Under 16 Speedway Championship is up for grabs.

The Central Coast Junior Motor Cycle Club will stage the title meeting at the Allan Park complex at Debenham Road, North Somersby.

The meeting has drawn riders from Brisbane in the north and Albury in the south, and many country centres in between.

Riders can start racing the 125cc machines in junior speedway from the time they turn nine years of age, and can compete on those machines until they turn 16.

Many of the competitors who will be seen this weekend now have several years of experience in the sport and all have been part of the Speedway Experience Coaching programme.

 

Former world No. 3 Craig Boyce spearheads the programme in New South Wales and with former World Under21 champion Darcy Ward doing similar things in Queensland there has been a noticeable and steady progress shown by all riders.

 

With meetings staged at different venues many riders and their families travel long distances to ride with the ultimate aim of progressing to be a full-time speedway professional competing on the world stage.

 

Defending champion this weekend is 12-year-old Beau Bailey from Grenfell who won last year’s title meeting staged at Cowra, as well as the Victorian and South Australian Championships, and also won the Redloh Cup at his last appearance on the Central Coast in December.

One of his toughest rivals will be Bathurst rider Noah Grabham, part of one of motorcycle racing’s greatest dynasty which has produced leading performers in many disciplines, now for a third generation.

Queensland will send a contingent of four riders headed by their State champion Jordy Loftus.

Joining Jordy will be his sister Anika, who partnered Jordy to win the Queensland Pairs Championship prior to Christmas, Lachlan Hawgood and Jai Bainbridge

Anika Loftus will not be the lone girl competing as Kurri Kurri rider Ruby James is also in the line-up.

The adage that good things come in small packages is exemplified by two pocket rockets in Sonny Spurgin from Kempsey and Cooper Antone from Albury who are sure to win some admirers on Saturday.

Both the strong Cowra club as well as the host club is well represented in the line-up with Lachlan Russell the most favoured of the locals.

The riders’ briefing is at 10am will be followed by a short practice session and then the championship gets under way.

After 20 heat races the top three scorers progress direct to the deciding A Final, with the next four best scoring riders from the heats contesting the B Final from which only the winner goes in the decider.

There is no admission charge for spectators to witness the meeting that is sure to feature some champions of the future.
