A very big milestone. This year marks the 90th year of speedway at Robertson Holden International Speedway, which was formerly called the A & P Showgrounds. And next February 7th and 8th will see the 40th running of the ENZED Dewtec Teams Champs. On behalf of my family and all fans I just want to say a very big thank you to all competitors and staff and volunteers over the years who have cemented speedway into a very big part of the Palmerston North community. A great little write up here, love the nick names of the very first race winners, albeit Aussies. www.historicspeedway.co.nz/palmerston_north_speedway.htm

It’s 89 years. Boxing Day 1930 it opened. If 1930 was the first year, 2019 is the 90th year. So yes, 90th anniversary will be next year, 2020, Boxing Day. Barry B
