The days are getting longer and that can only mean one thing - speedway is back! The 2023/24 season at Robertson Prestige International Speedway thunders back into action Saturday 21st October at 6:30pm with a HUGE night of entertainment!
The midnight oil is being burned in sheds and workshops all over the country, as competitors and crews race to be ready for the massive summer of speedway action ahead. With new cars and new drivers plus all your favourites, the opening night is going to be huge on the dirt oval.
The familiar roar of Superstocks hitting the dirt is an institution in Palmerston North, and a quality field of these fearless drivers are ready to set the tone for the season racing in the Lucas Oil SuperStock Shootout! Metal crunching Stockcars never disappoint with plenty of new cars, new paint schemes and wild designs - these are the backbone of the sport and always are dedicated to putting on a spectacular show for the fans! Spectacular Super Saloons will hit the dirt for the Lucas Oil Super Saloon Shootout and put on a thrilling show racing side-by-side! The return of your favourite Historic Stockcars from yester-year will bring back memories of days gone by. And finally, the daredevil Sidecars round out what is expected to be a massive, high adrenaline filled opening night of the 2023/24 Speedway season.
Its double points night, which is an excellent chance for competitors to get some early runs on the board in the Travel Managers Group Season Points Chase.
