Racing this Saturday night at Wahgunyah Speedway will feature all the categories that make up Corowa-Rutherglen Speedway’s club classes through the season and competitors are keen to get back under lights in front of a large crowd.

Production Sedans, Speedway Sedans Victoria Juniors, Goulburn Ovens Sedan Association, Unlimited Sedans, Sports Sedans, Standard Saloons, Sports Sedan Ladies and the Humpy Holdens will all be amongst the entertainers.

Production Sedans competitors include Brayden Creek, Scott Hawkins, Rodney Anderson, Leighton Evans, and Anthony Hanson whom all the fans and officials at Wahgunyah are glad to see after an incident at the last show.

Albury-based Corowa member Daryl Joosten is keen to go to battle in the Sports Sedans with Felicity Roycroft, Rhys Collins, and Jake Cottier amongst others whilst Roycroft will double up and also compete in the Ladies Sports Sedan category against Chloe Creek, and Cobie McGraw representing Corowa.

Katie Meyer, Bianca Ballantyne and Pauline Fell are some of the other drivers to keep an eye on in the Ladies racing.

Goulburn Ovens Sedan Association member drivers will compete for points towards their season aggregate in their racing. Corowa members Billy O’Donoghue, Brandan Lovell, Daniel Joosten, Marcus Maclean, Stuart Balins, Luke Collis, and Justin Brockley are keen to get one up on each other whilst stiff competition from the Schmetzer boys out of Leeton Ben and Tom is expected.

Micheal Fleming-Robertson leads local drivers in the Standard Saloon racing on Saturday with Tony Spale, and Rhys Lavender also representing Corowa-Rutherglen. Josh Cambell from Swan Hill and Josh Delarue from the Wangaratta clubs will challenge them for the win.
