If not it will definitely be ready for Boxing night in Bunbury. Jason and his Moyle Engines/Valvoline/Signs to Scale/Rayburn will be a formidable combination. Definitely one to watch.

Chief steward Jerome Sutton has made it clear that OVERDRIVING will not be tolerated in late models. He has already started “Having a Talk” with drivers. He says he wants to keep the racing clean and maintain the excellent low damage situation that has been apparent over the first 3 rounds of the R2C pro dirt series. If you see your favourite driver unexpectedly starting off the rear he may well be experiencing a COOLING OFF PERIOD. Well Done Jerome (ED)
