Drouin’s number one sports entertainment promotion the Drouin Speedway fires up again this Sunday for the first event of the New Year with Junior Sedan racing the main event focus of the day. Whilst a large and strong field of Standard Saloons has also nominated as they do each and every meeting at Drouin, Ladies Standard Saloons, the Aces of Spades Vintage Hot Rods class and the Unlimited Sedans will also feature in action.
Junior Standard Saloons feature on the program with Harry Cecil leading the way against Nathan Miles, Jack and Tom Braz, Cooper Joynson, Beau Stuchbery, and Zac Barwise also in the line-up and likely to keep the pressure on for podium honours. Cecil has been tough to beat this season whilst Stuchbery and Barwise both have feature race victories at Drouin already this season.
Jeff Blencowe the Sally Walkinshaw Memorial winner and Mark Miles the Eliminator Cup winner lead the nominations in the Standard Saloon field with Leigh Gooding, Jack Yeomans, Chris Miles, Matt Leek, and Andrew Miles others to keep an eye on in the Standard Saloon racing.
Competitors from around Australia are competing on Saturday night at nearby Nyora Raceway for the Victorian title in the Speedway Sedans Victoria Junior Sedan class and whilst Nathan Miles, Cruz Farrell, Arthur Hutchinson and Matilda Farrell are amongst nominations to compete at Drouin on Sunday already, there are also a trio of Western Australians coming to experience Drouin.
Victorian champion in the Unlimited Sedans Johnny Young leads the field for competition in his class on Sunday with Drouin members Hans Lovski, Daryl Nicolson and Stan Brown keen to get a big win over him, whilst Peter Farley comes into town from Bendigo and Ian Page from the Redline club. The big powerful Unlimiteds are a crowd favourite at Drouin Speedway.
A strong field of Ladies Standard Saloon racers will once again do battle with Dette Miles the standout amongst this weekend’s nominations. Maddison Miles, Elise Halliday, Michelle George, and Jemima Borkowski are others in the mix.
The Aces of Spades vintage rods class are also slated to do some skids on Sunday in what will be a great days racing.
