Motorsport fans celebrate with Speedway Carnival
The end of the Speedway season has finally arrived and to see off the running of the 2023/24 season, the Horsham Speedway Club has turned the last blast into a huge two day celebration and the good news is, you’re invited to join the 85 competitors nominated (at time of writing) across eight divisions for the Speedway Carnival on Saturday, June 8 and Sunday, June 9.
The event will host a wide range of sections, ensuring something for all the fans. The Wingless Sprints will headline the card with no less than 30 competitors coming to do battle over the two day festival.
The always popular V8 Trucks will feature the largest field for their season with seven trucks entered.
The Junior Sedans will be broken into three categories, the Top Stars for those with greater speed and experience and New Stars or the lesser experienced, in addition to the Speedway Sedans Australia 1200cc section which are the rear wheeled drive older cars.
It is pleasing to see the juniors being supported by Ricochets Run Catch Me Knot Collection, Grayz Creations, Hutchinson Racing, Be Seen Signs, SPH Designs and the 1200 Juniors Parents Group.
The Production Sedans always provide plenty of thrills and spills and the final event of the season should see the competitors wanting to finish the season off on the best foot forward.
Last but not least the Vintage Sedans and Vintage Hot Rods will turn back the hands of time as the sights and sounds of yesteryear return to life.
For the comfort of spectators, teams and officials, etc the racing will start early this weekend to avoid the winter night cold.
Saturday gates Open 2pm, Racing from 3pm and we do it all over again on Sunday with gates Open 12pm, Racing from 1pm.
Camping is available for at the track.
For further details please check the Blue Ribbon raceway Facebook page. We look forward to seeing you there!
