:: Steven Gay Wins again at Kellerberrin

Monday, June 10, 2013
Perth TQ Car Club

Steven Gay once again showed why he was regarded as one of the quickest Formula 500 drivers in the nation only a few seasons ago with another fine performance at Kellerberrin Speedway on June 8th.

The meeting was the third event of the 2013 Perth TQ Car Club season and attracted thirteen Formula 500s to the wheatbelt venue. Perfect weather conditions greeted competitors with a wonderfully prepared racetrack provided for the drivers.

2013 Bunny Burrowes Memorial winner Thomas Davies looked to be the man most likely to challenge Steven Gay across the afternoon. Davies day ended in the second heat after suffering a major issue with his engine.

Brent Lockwood and Chris Telenta were very fast early in the day but they would also fail to last the day with mechanical woes.

Steven Gay would win overall for the day with Ricky Drew and newcomer Brad Davidson second and third respectively.

Quick Results

Heat One- 1st Brent Lockwood, 2nd Thomas Davies, 3rd Steven Gay

Heat Two- 1st Steven Gay, 2nd Chris Telenta, 3rd Brent Lockwood

Heat Three- 1st Ricky Drew, 2nd Brad Davidson, 3rd Glenn Holdaway

Feature Race- 1st Steven Gay, 2nd Ricky Drew, 3rd Brad Davidson

Overall Points- 1st Steven Gay, 2nd Ricky Drew, 3rd Brad Davidson.

The next race meeting for the 2013 Perth TQ Car Club season is at Kellerberrin Speedway on the 6th July.

Big thanks to Western Tool Distributors and Janssen’s Transport Service for sponsoring the trophies on the day.

:: Hallett Wins the Formula 500 Grant Sealey Memorial

Wednesday, May 22, 2013
Formula 500's SA

Brock Hallett finished off his superb season by driving his Dutchman Performance s1 Stallard to Victory in the JD Couriers Grant Sealey Memorial at Sunline Speedway Waikerie on Saturday May 18.

On a bitterly cold night, the action was hot, especially between Hallett and Strathalbyn native, Scott Dungey who would eventually claim second in the feature with young gun, Josh Michelmore in his simex engineering s96 Hyper claiming third to also finish his rookie season in fine style.

Hallett opened his account by claiming in the heat one victory and on the way smashed the 10 lap record in the process. Not to be out done, Dungey then hit back by not only taking the heat two win but also then again lowered the new 10 lap record which has been set in the previous race.

This set about an interesting duel in the feature with the two heat winners starting off the front row with Hallett on pole but it was Dungey who got the jump early.

The two then cleared the rest on the field and looked like they would again create a new lap record before Simon Reichelt in his s51 Triple X came to a halt after suffering clutch issues.

At the restart Hallett put a slide job on Dungey for the lead going into turns one and two and held on to take the victory ahead of Dungey, while Michelmore had raced from a seventh starting position to claim third. Again claiming the honours for the last round of the Speedway Australia Rookie of the year championship, giving him a clean sweep of the series in the process

:: Vict Formula 500 Jettco Dual Crown Finale

Monday, May 06, 2013
Victorian Formula 500 Assn Inc.

Firstly, thanks everybody for coming out and supporting the Jettco race at Darlington. It was a great sign for our class to see 20 cars show up this late in the season, I really appreciate the effort everybody made to get there.

For those of you that couldn’t make it, the racing was as good as I have seen since the Aussie titles at Laang last year, the track was a credit to all those involved at Darlington, just a little more tweaking on the profile and it will be a complete pleasure dome, cant wait…...

The racing was the real star of the show though, with time trials and fastest to the rear in both heats it all revolves around passing, and there was plenty of that. We went with a 2 X 20 lap A format for a change and it proved really popular, high points to the front for the first and a complete invert of the finishing order for the start of the second A. The combined points from the two determined the overall podium on the night.

The first A was a ripper, Azza got going to an early lead, but by mid race Shane Dyno had caught and passed him in lapped traffic, a few laps latter Azza was back in the lead but that left, SVD, Jye O’Keefe and Ash Sinclair racing for second like it paid $10,000. With all this happening Azza skipped off to the win, and those three cut each other up lap after lap, great show all round, SVD 2nd – Jye 3rd – Ash 4th

The second A was always going to be interesting, Matt O’Rourke and Robby Terrawartha lead from the start with Rob finally securing the lead about 3 laps in. At the back Azza got the early jump with Ash, Jye and SVD following from the back, Jye’s motor had been softening off all night and he finally pulled infield around seven laps in……… still in one piece and much appreciated!!

Although Rob was cruising out front, Steven Horton, Snowy (Matt O’Rourke), Jarred Irving, Terry Rankin, Dale Sinclair and a fast closing Lethal Lee VG were putting on a real show at the front. From the front to the back there was a lot of great racing, with everyone on the track contributing to a great race. Robby T - 1st - Lethal 2nd - Steven Horton - 3rd

In the end the 3 overall winners on the night were all locked on points! Ash Sinclair had a 4th & 6th, Lee Van Ginnekin a 8th & 2nd, and James Aranyosi a 1st & 9th. We used the fastest lap times from the first A to split them, even doing that it showed Azza turned a 12.330 in fresh air from the front, and Ash a 12.390 from the second row dicing for second, third or fourth, it was that close………………. 0.060

Once again thanks to all the racers for supporting the event, all the 500 club volunteers for running it, and Darlington for hosting it. Our dates for next year will be released soon, cant wait.

Thanks Steve.Bell ... Read
 

:: 2014 Australian Formula 500 Title at Perth Motorplex

Saturday, May 04, 2013
Formula 500's WA

Way back in 1974 a driver by name of John Andersson wrote his name into the record books as the first West Australian driver to ever win a national crown in Formula 500’s (Known as TQ Speedcars back then) and the first time the event had been staged in WA at the world renowned Claremont Speedway.
This also began West Australia’s dominance in the 70’s with no other state wearing the A1 again until 1980 when the great Max Dumesny (VIC) stepped up on top of the podium.

Max Dumesny also has the honour of being the only driver to take the A1 out of our state when the Australian Formula 500 title has been held in WA. This achievement occurring 31 years ago at the now closed Bibra Lake Speedway.
Since then WA drivers have greeted the chequered flag first on our home soil.
In 1987 Vince Chapman snatched the lead in the dying laps at Bibra Lake speedway.
In 1998 at Bunbury Speedway Trevor Harding Snr led all the way and in 2006 Ben Devlin wrote his name into the record books by becoming the first driver to win the event in a 600cc powered machine at Esperance speedway.

12-15th March 2014 (TBC) the Australian Formula 500 Title makes it’s way back to WA and will be held at the Perth Motorplex.
A total payout schedule in excess of $26,000 is proposed (TBC), with the winner receiving $10,000!!! The aim of Formula 500’s WA and the Perth Motorplex will be to make this the greatest Australian championship ever staged and the expectations are high for a 60+ car field. What better place to showcase our rich history and strong speedway division than the Perth Motorplex.

Can someone outside of WA join Max in history or will the home track advantage once again prove too much?
