The big shows at Bairnsdale Speedway continue when the venue this Saturday night plays host to another Victorian title with the Division 2 Hot Rods in town for their biggest event of the season. Whilst a champion will be crowned in the Hot Rods, the Standard Saloons Juniors and the Open Standard Saloons will also have feature events with support from Limited Sportsman and Vintage Hot Rods from the Ace of Spades.
In a promotional partnership with the East Gippsland Power Boat Club the Speedway is encouraging fans of motorsport to come to town and make a huge weekend of being in East Gippsland. The prestigious and annual ‘Gold Cup’ for Powerboats will be on the lakes in Paynesville. Fans could come into town Friday night or Saturday morning to attend boats and head out to the Speedway for our 5pm start, before staying the evening and attending the final day of the Gold Cup on Sunday.
Saturday nights racing is headlined by the Division 2 Hot Rods and a strong list of campaigners is set for battle, including defending champion Scott Angus from South East Melbourne, last season’s runner up Leigh Burkett, Daniel Angus who finished third and a former champion Scott Laidlaw returns. Choosing a winner is not clear cut with the line-up that also includes Troy Hutchison whom won last month in Daylesford, Mel Tatterson a consistent top five finisher, her dad Rob Tatterson and Leigh Mitchell who are other drivers whom have shown form this year behind the wheel.
Junior Standard Saloons will also feature with another event that will provide opportunity for our future stars of the sport to show us what we have to look forward to. Moe based racer Jack Yeomans leads the pack from Zac Barwise and Bairnsdale’s Beau Stuchbery, in evenly matched field that will allow rookie drivers to shine.
New Victorian Champion Shane Stewart from Morwell and his brother Daniel who now carries the Victoria 3 plate lead a terrific field of Standard Saloons. Patrick Vuillermin who qualified on the front row of the recent Victorian title race is in the field as is veteran Leigh Gooding, Bairnsdale’s Andrew Cormack a feature winner this season and Josh Thomas last season’s top gun driver also from Bairnsdale. Choosing a winner here is a tough task, it will be thrilling watching the door to door action the Standard Saloons have in store for fans.
Supporting the three feature events are the Limited Sportsman and the visiting Vintage Ace of Spades Club for fans of cars from the 1930s era.
