Speedway Karting star set to shine in Street Stocker ranks!!!

By Leigh Bourke

Tonight, at PCR (12th March), when the Portland Automotive # 69 EF Falcon hits the track it will have a change of drivers behind the wheel.

The Famous Speedway Karting Superstar himself, Dan (The MAN) Powell, will be the new steerer trying to contain the big blue and white falcon from adding another statistic to its list.

When asked how he rates his chances come race night, the usual quite excitable young man replied with a laugh, “As long as I don’t look like a wood duck, I don’t care”.

Tough Weekend at the Office for Leigh Bourke Motorsport!!!

By: Leigh Bourke Motorsport

The weather was hot but cloudy for the fifth round of the PCR Street Stocker Track Championship where another strong field of 29 cars where on hand. My night started well, with me drawing the #1 marble out of the bag, putting me off pole in my opening heat. The track looked a little wet in spots but overall very racy. Read More...

Sydney Street Stockers season Wrap up!!
Written By Dean Neal

Holden versus Ford is the universal chant in Australian Motorsport and the fact that this great rivalry permeates Speedway may surprise some and that it certainly exists in Sydney to boot!

The Ford versus Holden 6-cylinder Street Stock Stampede raced with regularity throughout the season at Parramatta City Raceway.

Parramatta City Raceway  24/04/2004

A good field of around 16 cars was on hand for our final show of the year.

 

The track was looking nice and juicy at the start of the night and I was looking forward to some good hard and fast racing.

         I drew position 6 for my 1st heat which just happened to be 1st race of the night and soon as I hit the track I was amazed at exactly how wet the track still was. I held my position for the 1st lap or so just figuring out the track and then started to try and push forward, the high line seemed to be the way to go so with a bit of persistence and a few other cars running it I started moving forward.

Well it has been along time between drinks so to speak since my last race at Wagga. 

By Leigh Bourke

 

Due to time constraints i was unable to make our last club championship meeting at PCR but luckily they have snuck another meeting on the 24th of April in our calendar which i am eager to get out and do well in. During the next week i will be busily working on the car changing the diff, putting new front bumper bar on after straightening out the left front chassis rail, an oil change and knock as many dents as i can out of the rest of the car to make it resemble a EF Falcon again. Hopefully a few things i learnt about the car at Wagga will give me just that little bit more track speed and consistency to finish the year with a good result.

Hope to see you at the track.

N.A.S.R  Australian Open Street Stock Title

 A strong field of 40 cars greeted a nice sunny day at Wagga speedway for the running of the N.A.S.R Australian open street stock title to be held over 4 heats each of qualifying then the all important 30 lap final. The track looked very wet down low to mid line and very dry up top; however after some wheel packing it started to come up not to bad. Read More...

 
28/02/2004 Parramatta City Raceway  
By Leigh Bourke

After nearly a week of on and off rain it was good to see another nice day to go racing. After the previous meeting I was keen to get the car back out on the track to make sure I had fixed all the problems and to see if some changes to the set up I had done was going to be any good. Read More...

 
17/01/2004 Parramatta City Raceway
By Leigh Bourke

Tonight was the night that I was looking at continuing some of the good form that I had at my last meeting. Coming off the back row in of my 1st heat on a fast track was not going to be easy especially with a few good guys at the front. I got a good start and rounded up a few cars around the outside on the 1st lap and continued to make inroads from there until I got up to 5th where I was getting held up a bit but decided to settle for the position as I was going to be off pole in the next heat.

7-02-2004 Parramatta City Raceway!
By Leigh Bourke

Well the old saying about a full moon causing strange things to happen certainly played true for me tonight. After the good effort from my last meeting I was looking to improve however due to the enforced changes to the front end I was not sure how it would handle.
