Numbers I don't know. The programme is a committee-run club operation for members and family rather than a commercial promotion, with 30-40 heats ranging from Pitbikes, Quads, Mascot Speedway as well as U21, and Sidecars, and parents and family all collaborating for a monthly Sunday afternoon social as well as a race meeting. Senior racing would be NL level, as identified by the inclusion of Byron Bekker and the recently-departed Deon Prinsloo, ex Wimbledon.

Why Damien Devine rode in final in Sidewinter, not e.g. Lyle Kotze? Damien scored no points in regular round!

WALKERVILLE, 11 Dec 2011.

3rd & Final Round, Dot Engineering National Championship.

 

Yesterday's meeting at Walkerville Raceway was abandoned when just a few heats into the programme after a spectacular crash of the sidecars followed by a downpour of rain which flooded the track.

The solos managed one heat in each class, Pettit winning the Premiers' race from Magill, but on the second lap of the first s/cars race a triple collision resulted in three competitors each sustaining broken bones, - driver Sean Todd 3 broken ribs and a broken arm, his passenger Dean Todd a broken collar bone, and passenger Stef a broken right arm.

 

No sooner had the ambulance departed than a downpour occured flooding the track and ending the days event.

A decision about a restaging will be made shortly.

Meanwhile contributions yesterday to the cancer relief fund for baby Reef Carneson totaled R5,000. Thanks to all.
