The rain is already ruining the fun!

🚨 PRACTICE DAY POSTPONED 🚨

We absolutely hate having to do this, but this is the risk we take trying to run this early in the season.

The track has simply had far too much rain, and with more rain forecast over the coming days, our track guru Red has made the tough call to postpone this Friday’s practice day.

At this stage, our next scheduled practice (Friday 11th September) is still a goer — obviously weather dependant. 🤞

We’ll also work with the team at Huntly Speedway to see if we can squeeze in another practice date, so hopefully we can make up for the lost track time.

Fingers crossed we get some sunshine and can finally get some laps in! 🏁💨

Thanks everyone for your understanding.

Throwing it back to where it all started. 🏁

Sam's first-ever chequered flag back in 2012 in the 19A Ministock. The same focus, determination, and drive that led to this moment continues to push her every time she hits the track.
