Some Milestones you might like to hear about, that were only achieved through all of your combined efforts thru the day;
- The Most Vintage Speedway entries ever — 40+
- The Most Speedway Karts entries ever — 24
- The Most Spectators we’ve had ever
- The Most the 50/50 raffle has raised
- The Most food & drinks sold at the cafe
- The Most Events we have ever completed in a one day meeting, with the 11 event program and all entrants got to have 4 runs each, making a total of 44 events on the day
A fantastic effort given the dusty conditions we had to contend with and the race time lost due to the constant track watering.
Quite a remarkable effort; and this in turn has been supported by the many facebook posts I have noted in the past 24 hours. along with numerous congratulatory phone calls & emails!
The visiting South Coast Speedway Kart Club were so pleased with the way we ran the meeting, they have, this morning rebooked their Senior & Junior SKAA categories to support our next meeting on Saturday 22nd May being the “Bob Blacklaw” Tribute Vintage Speedway Meeting.
Also, not to be overlooked: What was this event worth to the local business community???
Well, based on the visitation numbers for this meeting a conservative estimate of $30k is a reasonable assessment.
So, you can further consider your volunteer contributions through your support of our Race meetings and go towards helping “Make a Difference” to our Rural economy, an important point often overlooked by many in the community .
ONCE AGAIN — JOB WELL DONE!
Keep up the Good Work.
Kerry Phelan, on behalf of the Gasworks Motorsport Committee
