Bricknell looks forward to a Mad Month of Speedway Action                                24-12-2008

After the frustration of a deflating right rear tyre in the feature race of Round 7 of the Wanless World Series at the Bendigo Bank Arena Raceway on Tasmania last time out, Jamie Bricknell and the whole Bricknell Motorsport team have been working hard to prepare the # 55 TAS Giraffe Civil Contracting supported Maxim for a very busy month ahead.

“The next month is pretty hectic for us as we have 8 nights of racing in 4 weeks, so it’s been a case of check and re-check everything to make sure we are ready to go”. The team are preparing to venture to the mainland for Jamie’s first appearances at Avalon, Mt Gambier and Warrnambool, which Jamie is really excited about, “ I have heard a lot of good things about those tracks, and having seen them a couple of years ago when Dad raced over there. I can’t wait.”

However, before they can load up and head across the water, there is some serious racing to be done at home in Tassie, with Boxing Day at Cranes Combined Carrick Speedway, the next night at Bendigo Bank Arena at Latrobe and then back to Carrick for a double header early in January. “Boxing Day at Carrick has always been a big event, and with the new clay on the track, and a big field, I’m sure it will be really tough.”

Both Boxing Day at Cranes Combined Carrick Speedway, and the following night at Bendigo Bank Arena are rounds of the Farmers Union Iced coffee Series, which has had a stalled start this season due to the inclement weather conditions experienced in Tasmania over the last month, “ The weather has been unbelievable, very frustrating for everyone, but let’s hope its fine and warm from here on in.”
