SPRINTCARS TO SQUIRT THE DIRT AT BAIRNSDALE

Motorsport fans in Gippsland should consider putting some high powered V8 action into their Christmas by attending Bairnsdale Speedway this Sunday the 26th of December as the VSC Sprintcars tear up the neighbourhood with their brand fully sideways, dirt chewing, full noise action.

Amongst the entries are standout Ford powered driver Peter Logue from Morwell who won round one at Rosedale Speedway recently and rookie sensation Traralgon’s Andrew Hughes who has finished high in the standings at both race meetings already held for the Sprintcars this season.

Last time at Bairnsdale the meeting was lost due to rain, so locals are looking forward to some great summer weather this weekend that will allow the guys to hit the dirt and play!

Bairnsdale’s Rod Bowman will be right at home and looking to impress as his team owner and local Bairnsdale business man Colin Sands has purchased the best of the best equipment for this season with a 2010 chassis and a top of the range Chev engine from a well known engine builder in Melbourne.

David Barker was impressive at his last start at Rosedale and the ‘President’ will be extremely strong again whilst Mal Siely an accomplished Gippsland race driver with numerous Victorian title victories will hope for no mechanical issues that plagued him at the last event in order to challenge at the front on Sunday night.

Darren Painter from Moe returns to the tour having not raced since Wangaratta in October whilst David Moore from Glengarry North, Shane Fisher, Johnsonville’s Robert Sands, Robert Hunter and Morwell’s Mark Fitzpatrick will all keep the front runners honest and looking for a podium position themselves this weekend.

Fans are invited to come out this weekend to see the Sprintcars and share in the festive fun. Be sure to say hello to the drivers and their teams later in the evening when access to the pit enclosure is given.
