Kihikihi Speedway
King Country Std Stock Champs
An afternoon of speedway in the sunday sun at Kihikihi
following on from two great nights of teams racing at Waikaraka Park wasn't
a half bad way to wind up the weekend .
I think there were around 28 Std Stocks for the King Country
champs and sadly they were split into two uneven groups to set grid positions
in the one race championship . To be honest the heat races were a bit ho
hum but the final was brutal in the extreme .
23h Lance Ashton was the main carnage creator and he
cn be cretited with rolling two cars plus dealing sveere beatings to a
few more .
49h Stephen McPherson won the King Country Std Stock
Champs .
Somewhere around a dozen Ltd Saloons raced on the day
but track conditions didn't produce inspiring watching . I had to leave
before their final which I hear 5m Brent McClymont won .
A good field of streetstocks raced for their King
Country Champs but I missed their final too , perhaps they saved their
best performance for when I had left . 16K Trevor Demalmanche won the deal
.
All in all a good day at Kihikihi with the Std Stock final
on it's own worth the effort to attend .
