Horsham’s Blue Ribbon Raceway will fire into life this weekend (Saturday the 2nd of March), for what is shaping up to be a stellar event with a wide array of Speedway action to be
spread over 5 fantastic classes.

The ultra-fast and always exciting Super Rods are expected to thrill with a field of 10
competitors, the V8 powered methanol munching machines will in the clockwise/nontraditional direction for Speedway and as always, the opened wheel racing is expected to produce high levels of adrenalin.

Have you ever wondered what would happen if Super Sedans, Late Models, AMCA
Nationals and other Speedway Sedan divisions were mixed into one race? Well, here is your
chance to see what will happen when a dozen or more come out to play in the VSC Unlimited Sedans with varying horsepower and handling characteristics there will be plenty
of interest.

For the first time this season the Limited Sportsman will hit the track, in season past they
have always provided plenty of thrills and spills and with 8 competitors nominated these
competitors will be looking to push hard as they run wheel to wheel in the race to the
chequered flag.

With a half dozen or more Production Sedans plus the always entertaining V8 Trucks set for a Saturday night fight, the Horsham Club are primed and ready to present the fast paced
action. So be sure to bring your family and friends for a night to excite and we look forward
to seeing you there.
