Finale of the Holden Trade Club Saloon Speedweek
Come along to the finale of the Holden Trade Club Saloon Speedweek presented by Valvoline.
When: Saturday, December 8 - Gates open at 4pm racing starts at 6pm.
Where: 7 Sandflat Rd, Cromwell
After an intense week of five meetings it comes down to this, the sixth and final meeting to decide the overall winner from 24 of the country’s best saloon drivers – 8 from the North Island and 16 from the South Island including Heavy Trax Central Motor Speedway ‘t’ driver Ivan Murdoch(7t), Phil Burgess(15t), Graham Williamson(21t) and Barry Taylor(28t). Low, wide and loud, saloons are thoroughbred race cars with sophisticated space frame chassis and full race V8’s churning out around 400hp.
Visiting class: V8 Modifieds – a cross between a saloon and sprintcar – launch the 2018-19 Mainland Modified Series. Fast and furious, one small mistake can send them rolling along the clay like metal tumbleweed.
Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
