Wahgunyah speedway way to light up the Murray on Saturday

FRESHLY remodelled after the horrific floods destroyed all the wiring and existing infrastructure for lighting and plumbing and other facilities, the Corowa-Rutherglen Speedway Club is once again alive with some under lights racing this Saturday. The program includes racing for Wingless Sprints, Production Sedans, Juniors, Goulburn Ovens Sedans, Standard Saloons, Sports Sedans and Humpy Holdens all scheduled for your entertainment. The committee is excited to unveil the track to all this Saturday for the first meeting under lights in more than a couple of seasons after tremendous work by the committee and various entities involved with the funding of the upgrades to the property all aligning to make Wahgunyah one of the best lit speedway facilities in Australia. Production Sedans will compete in a feature with twice Australian national champion Stephen Laidlaw in town to compete against Jack Bear, and Michael Sayers both local men to the North East. Goulburn Ovens Sedans will compete in a points event for their Goulburn Ovens Sedan Association with the likes of Ross Maclean, Billy O’Donoghue both from here in Corowa up against Ben and Tom Schmetzer from Leeton and Daniel Joosten and Stuart Balins from Albury yet representing proudly the Corowa club. Wingless Sprints are scheduled and ordinarily we would have hoped for a strong line up. With events in Dubbo attracting some drivers who may otherwise have come to Wahgunyah we can expect Evan O’Bryan, David Anderson, James Schneider, and Daryl and Andrew Coon to duke it out for the honours. Gates to the public open from 8am. Racing starts at 12pm and racing is from 3pm. A full canteen operates on site with hot, cold food and drinks. Entry is $25 for adults whilst the club offers aged pensioners and children aged 12 to 16 a $15 entry. Any child under 12 is free. Family tickets are $60 for two adults and three children in the 12 to 16 age bracket. For enquiries contact Brendon Eames on 0400 126 487.
