Ozyace 0 Posted April 3, 2009 (edited) Unusally early for the release of these dates, normally have to wait till July / August. May do the first two rounds actually, i've run out of Trentham Estate Murphy's Lore Autumn Red Edited April 3, 2009 by Ozyace Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chopper 88 Posted April 3, 2009 A qualifying round has not been announced. It will depend on rider nominations and a decision will be made closer to the end of the year. For more details go to the Gillman Speedway homepage Id be very suprised if there isnt a qualifier with the amount of talent coming through the ranks.

BigFatDave 258 Posted April 10, 2009 (edited) I think that after the success of providing a container for bikes last year the organisers are hoping for more involvement by our top UK-based stars which may well preclude a qualifying round. I can't see Jason, Leigh & Flyin' Ryan taking part but it would be good to see the likes of Shane Parker, Wato, Lemo, Cam, Johnno, Davy Watt and Kevin Doolan again along with Troy, Trav, Rooboy, Ty, Aaron, Darcy, Kozza, the Sedglings & the Holders etc. Doesn't leave much room for the up-and-comers so there may have to be a separate comp for them perhaps? Certainly given the time of year it may be difficult to factor in a qualifier, which would be a shame as I thoroughly enjoyed last years round at Gosford, and also improved my estimation of that track at the same time. Any qualifier would have to be at Gillman, the best track in Oz by far. As a committed public transport fan I would have preferred a couple of days space between Gilly and Milly as well, now it looks like I'll hafta run flat out to get to Sunraysia, then meander over five days to Newcastle!! May be some sprintcars on midweek somewhere. Edited April 10, 2009 by BigFatDave Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hanging on dates for a qualifier at the mo. before I take the plunge on my descent to Croweater Country via Oz's answer to Ryanair, Jetstar. Good way to spend my Rudd Bonus, its either that or a Tatt!! The 2009 Toxic Waste - oooooops, sorry, I mean Mango Chutney is a few months away yet, most of the 2008 Vintage has escaped or eaten its way out of the jars, oh, and I swapped a couple of litres for a 44 gallon drum of Diesel.
