Central Otago’s fastest family show on Earth!

Heavy Trax Hire Central Motor Speedway

Super saloons, the methanol gulping, flame shooting, mud-slinging 700 plus horsepower beasts of speedway return to Heavy Trax Hire Central Motor Speedway on Saturday, November 10 for Round 2 of the Mag & Turbo Super Cup 2018-19.

When: Saturday, November 10 - Gates open at 4pm racing starts at 6pm.
Where: 7 Sandflat Rd, Cromwell

Be sure to be trackside as 22 of the South Island’s fastest super saloon drivers go pedal to the metal, door to door on the clay of Heavy Trax Hire Central Motor Speedway. Former Central Motor Speedway ‘t’ drivers Peter Dickson and Shane McIntyre are likely to be among frontrunners. But don’t expect Peter, Shane or drivers like defending champ Ian Burson (21n) and second placed Trevor Elliott (27c) to get their own way with ‘t’ drivers Ray Stewart (34t and 3rd in last season’s Vertex) and Greig Johnston (77t) on the track.

As always, there will be good fields of support classes and possibly a gang of Street Stocks.
