ONE HUNDRED RACE DRIVERS HEADING TO WAHGUNYAH THIS SATURDAY NIGHT

ONE HUNDRED RACE DRIVERS HEADING TO WAHGUNYAH THIS SATURDAY NIGHT

Wahgunyah Speedway revs up again this Saturday night May 21st with One 

hundred drivers nominated to compete in their various divisions where the 

visting Super Sedans & Super Modifieds join the Standard Saloons as the 

feature divisions.

The Standard Saloons have a terrific car count with almost thirty 

competitors scheduled to compete including very strong competitors such as 

Rye’s Nick Chrystie, Pakenham’s Mark Miles, Geelong based Jay Dickson, Swan 

Hill’s Leighton Warburton, Kinglake’s Mick Chrystie, Gippsland’s Ben 

Randall & Yarrawonga’s Gary Evans joining the likes of Warrick Howie, Chris 

Fitzgerald, Micheal Fleming-Robertson & Brendan Eames from the home club 

Corowa – Rutherglen to try to win the Lachie Howie Memorial in honour of a 

much loved local.

No doubt, the locals will be trying hard to keep the trophy up North, 

however with state Standard Saloon points on the line Miles, Randall & 

Dickson in particular will be keen to collect the win and catapult 

themselves up the table.

Normally the 366ci powered Super Sedans would take centre stage on this 

show, however due to mechanical breakages and damaged cars from a lot of 

recent racing, many cars are unable to compete, so they take a slight back 

step however will maintain a great deal of interest for those in the crowd. 

Mick Nicola Jnr from Traralgon, Scott Whittle from Geelong, Michael Wicks 

from Bendigo & Wayne Aylett from Leeton in particular will be of interest 

to the fans in the Magic on the Murray. 

The Arthur Cornelius Memorial returns for the returning open wheel V8 Super 

Modifieds. Chip & Rob Farrer have been the dominate drivers in recent times 

however, we are led to believe a number of other competitors are very 

strong now also. Jordy Davis & Jade Ewart are very keen to compete whilst 

Corowa members the Thomson family who are Corowa members have William 

Thomson in a club registered car and local Corowa businessman David Walton 

having a guest drive in another Corowa registered car.

Supporting the main acts will be Sports Sedans in their third round of the 

‘Premier Air Conditioning’ track championship & the Ladies in the second 

round of their ‘Highline Racewear & Team Apparel’ track championship along 

with the Goulburn Ovens Sedans Association & the Junior Sedans in club show 

races.
