Double header at Premier
RACE fans will be treated to a huge double header at Premier Speedway this weekend.
Saturday night will see the running of both the Victorian Sprintcar title and the Victorian Super Rod title.
While both defending champions will be absent from the track (Jamie Veal and Shaun Walsh), fans can expect some tight racing.
The question now circulating - is this the year a Tasmania wins as there’s seven drivers in the field, led by Tate Frost and the return of Shaun Dobson.
The 2023 Grand Annual Sprintcar Classic winner Brock Hallett currently leads the track championship, sitting on 888 points, and will have added incentive to take out Saturday night’s title.
He currently leads the championship tally from newly crowned national Sprintcar champion Jock Goodyer on 848, with Tate Frost rounding out the top three on 766.
Goodyer will race at Toowoomba Speedway (driving for Terang’s Jack Lee) on Friday and Saturday in an attempt to add another national title to his name – the 2026 Australian 360 LS Sprintcar title.
Allansford Sprintcar veteran Matthew Reed will also be hoping for a podium finish this weekend, as will Portland’s Luke Storer.
In the Super Rods, Warrnambool drivers Michael Coad and Jamie May could be hard to beat, as will Melbourne’s Stan Marco Jnr.
With so many quality drivers set to race this weekend, make sure you’re at Premier Speedway this Saturday for what looks set to be a great night’s entertainment.
