spiderweb 2 Posted December 6, 2008 Any news of what's happening in the NSW State Championship? Hi folks From the Aussie Yahoo site; posted by Ron. Just back from Gosford. Chris Holder won the NSW Championships tonight. Apart from winning the final, he also scored a 15 point maximum. Kozza Smith finished second in the final (13 points in qualifying for the final). Lee Herne finished third (11 points) and James Holder fourth (12 points) in the final. Bryn will probably update further once he has had his medicine. Regards Ron Also from Lance; Aussie Long Track from Brisbane, Attended the meeting today very hot day, sidecar rider Kim French hit the fence during practice and was taken to hospital. The meeting started about a hour late and due to the heat there was lots of track watering. 1100 cc Long Track Sidecar title was won by Ross Brown / Craig Parsons from Micheal Kent / Karl England with third place going to Paul Newman / Daniel Newman The 250cc 4/ Solo title was won by the teenage rising speedway star in Darcy Ward who was Unbeaten in the class all day, while slow out of the tapes on his laydown machine, he came from behind all day passing both inside and outside in spectacular fashion, although he only took the lead on the last lap exiting turn 2 when race leader Jace Castles fell, Darcy went on to a comfortable victory. The Up to 450 cc 4/FTX class was the main event and approaching the final Darcy Ward looked the one to beat, again unbeaten in this class as well, he was away slowly and struggled to catch the early leaders. The race for victory developed into a battle between Jace Castles and Rohan Tungate over the last 2 laps with Jace Taking the lead from Rohan exiting turn 2 on the last lap, although it could be questioned as a yellow flag was being frantically waved for a fallen rider. Darcy battled valiantly for fourth place, was a gutsy effort in the hot conditions, only to come up short in his last race. Was some excellent racing in all the classes on a long hot day.

Mick Headland half spining and hit for a slow flip . But in the final it was Mick all the way. Rory was in a class of his own winning every race but his bike failled 10 meters out of the gate! UK rider Kyle Newman did not score a point! There was a disapointing field of 9 riders. 350 solos had there first run at Gillman and were very fast Robert Branford 3 wins Brenton Barnfeild 1 win times were only about a second a lap slower than the big boys. Division two sidecars was won by UK visitor Mick Cave from Jack spear 2nd Dwyer 3rd and Kieth Bitchard 4th Solo encourage saw a couple of falls with Ben Hatcliffe falling and Mitch Goodwin riding over the fallen bike. Adam Briggs also hit the fence in a seperate race. Juniors produced some good racing with Aurther Sissis starting 20 meters back carving up the othe 4 bikes for a win. So next 3 races he started 40 meters back and came home 1st and two 2nds with 9 year old Dakota Ballantyne taking 3 wins. full results on the Gillman web site Monday. Ps it was only slightly warmer than the Best of the Best meeting! __._,_.___ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
