Brad did say they will look at expanding after this first international event. So many NZ Speedways could be considered for this, but whether it aligns with the club and speedway themselves is the major question. Running two races in Australia in the western side and eastern side and two in NZ in north and south island could be a really cool way to do it. Eg. Perth-Eastern Creek in the Aussie swing and Baypark-Ruapuna in the NZ Swing. The tracks could be completely different to those ive suggested, those were just examples. As ive said so many could be considered here, hopefully it does happen in the future.

Be great if they came here. Yes agree Baypark Speedway and Ruapuna Speedway be ideal tracks.
They have planned Australia in our off season. So I'm sure wouldn't be to hard for tracks here to accommodate they. May be a pipe dream. But we can only dream.

It would also come down to how many local car owners could provide these guys with rides as they aren't bringing there own equipment to race in Australia.
I think Rico Abreu shipped a car to Australia last year and it's probably still there.
It will be interesting to see who Larson drivers for in Australia and what equipment.
Will it be a Schnee-Lawson Chassis (the old Eagle Chassis) he races in the US and will Paul Silva travel as well to crew the car.
