It’s shaping up as a massive night at Oceanview on Saturday night.
First up, the Flat Track bikes are making their first appearance at Wanganui for the second annual North versus South challenge. Then there’s the West Coast Sidecar and Production Saloon titles,both of which have drawn excellent fields.
Today we’ve added two Stockcar teams races between the Stratford Stormers and the Wanganui Vulcans,the first of which will be for the Rees Shield. With Stratford postponing the West Coast Stockcar Teams event there will be a stack of Stockcars looking for somewhere to race, plus Superstocks and Youth Ministocks to round out the programme.
Racing starts at 6pm, and it will be our first chance to welcome and acknowledge our two 3NZs, Zane Dykstra and Cody Lockett.

The programme for tomorrow night just keeps growing. The Club had a call from the Streetstock guys today. With the GP at Stratford now being one night only (tonight) there were guys at a loose end tomorrow, especially the South Islanders including the new 2NZ & 3NZ. “Can we come and play at your place?” They asked. “Why not?” we replied.
So now there really is something for everyone at Oceanview tomorrow night…

We had a few spots of rain around 7am, but that's all. There's even a bit of blue sky as I type this  Superstock field is now 18 cars including 2NZ Blair Uhlenberg and 3NZ Zane Dykstra.

Was going to head to Stratford tonight but that got canned so on the bank i sit in Wanganui for a full night of racing. Stratford takes the Rees Sheild in a pretty brutal first teams race of the night,
Some very good hits going in in that one, cant wait for the second one.

Stratford goes 2 for 2 in another brutal teams race with huge hits going in all over the place.
3nz got held up with a lap to go and the Stratford driver just hung in there and hung in there to take it.
That just wets the appetite for nxt weekend that's for sure, 1 can only hope that racing is anywhere that good in Palmy!

Was a good night tony first time been there in over 5 years since we moved south then back again last year.still one of my all time favorite tracks .saw you at one stage was going to say hi but you were yacking with shaun Smith so carried on to the pits I was asking Shaun about the guy who was driving his car last night. Andrew’s driven derby cars, but it was his first time in a Superstock. He won the drive in a charity auction. He did really well, finishing on the lead lap in the first two heats, then had a half-spin in Heat Three but still completed the race. It was great to have 2NZ and 3NZ on hand, and they had a fantastic battle in the second heat with Uhlenberg raking the win by less than a second. Hope you enjoyed your night at Oceanview. |
