This Saturday night from 4pm at Nyora Raceway, the venue plays host to around eighty race cars from a variety of Sedan sections of Speedway with all the local stars having top billing. The Sports Sedans, Division 2 Hot Rods, Standard Saloons and Juniors are all in action.
Believe it or not, a special visit has been locked in with ‘Santa’! Santa has agreed to come to Nyora Reserve and in particular to the Speedway fans on Saturday in terrific weather. He has offered to make sure lots of Lollies are available for the kids.
Another exciting attraction of the night is that club is selling raffle tickets to give somebody the opportunity to win a ride in the two-seater Lightning McQueen Unlimited Sedan. It is $20 a ticket and the lucky winner gets to fly around Nyora as a passenger in the car for eight laps. All proceeds go direct to Nyora as the car owner is a dedicated Nyora member helping the club thrive, thank you Dale Mead.
The Division 2 Hot Rods are back for another race before their state title which occurs at the venue later in the season and Leigh Mitchell and Daniel Angus who both podiumed at last years title are nominated. The winner from two weeks ago Troy Hutchison is keen to make it two from two at Nyora whilst Trent Wilson and Bobby Devine who completed the top three at our last show are also in the field.
Our Open Standard Saloon line-up has exploded in numbers after the first race meeting and Rhys Lansdown who won that first show will have a larger list of fancied competitors to dice with. Mitch Foster, Mark Miles, Andrew Cormack, Matt Leek, Chris Miles, Bailey Perkins, and Kacey Ingram are just some of those names. Lansdown finished on the podium last week at Wangaratta whilst other drivers may have to shake off some rust before getting down to it.
Junior Standard Saloon racing has a great field of cars that will see our Victorian Champion Damon Ingram turn out for his first run of this season. Both the Cecil brothers are competing with Owen and Harry, Nathan Miles, Zac Barwise from Colac, and Hunter Carey are just some of the great competitors who will be in amongst the battle for the trophies.
Danielle Solly the winner from our first Ladies Standard Saloon event is back and this time she Kate Stuchbery and Maddison Miles will have to tussle with Allana Ardley and Bec Glassborow amongst others. Ardley is the most experienced of the Ladies in the field and is looking to kick off her season in the best way possible, winning.
Sports Sedan action has attracted a small yet competitive field with former two times Victorian champion Jamie Paull in competition against Felicity Roycroft who was amongst the top drivers at Wangaratta last weekend. Caleb Lincoln just needs a little luck, and he will be in amongst the front runners, Chris Aarts, Matt Reddecliffe and Nyora legend Ray Gould are others racing this weekend. Any driver on the list, is capable of a top three finish this weekend.
Our National Juniors field is a little affected this weekend by a state event occurring in Horsham. However, Dylan Barrow, Tenayah Barton, Kirana Barton and Jess O’Donnell in the top stars line-up and Matilda Farrell, Nathan Miles, Bryce Leek and Harry Cecil in the new stars line-up are sure to give the fans a great scrap to watch.
For the early birds, from Midday you can watch the Junior Quarter Midgets in competition with many names we know and many names who will become stars in the future. When you have Farrells, Eastham’s, Milburn’s and Chippindall’s in the field, you know the sport is in great hands for a long time to come.
During the night some Modified Sedans will hit the track for some shake down laps.
All the action on Saturday starts at 4pm whilst the gate will be open for public from around 11am for entry will cost $25 for an adult, Kids 12 to 16 are $15 each whilst all other children are free and Seniors are $10, Family ticket of two adults and two kids 12 to 16 is $60.
