4th December:  (from John Jackson) Kurri's Kozza Smith the current NSW Longtrack Champion, led the Kurri Cobras Speedway Club riders to win the 2011 Husky Oils NSW Speedway Championships at Oakburn Park, Tamworth Saturday night. Central Coasts NSW U/21 Champion, Taylor Poole, in second place, upset the Cobras trifecta by qualifying via the exciting B Final relegating Rohan "Racer" Tungate to third & Daine Stevens to fourth place in the hard fought A Final.

With some upsets in the afternoons qualifying rounds and a few engine swaps and the one tyre rule, rider presentations, interviews and parade, the stage was set for a great night of Speedway on the well prepared 450 meter track. Well done Tamworth Motor Cycle Club! Get to Oakburn Park Feb. 11 for the NSW Sidecar Championships.

Some dubious start marshalling and " I'll do it my way !" starts by the
Referee in the early 3 lap rounds raised the ire of spectators, competitors and race crew alike and resulted in one angry prematch international favourite ready to pull out of the State Championships. The race was started while he was doing his pre-race rituals a metre off the start tapes!

The night was marred by a sidecar incident onto back straight where Michael Farrell Jnr & Rod O'mealey touched with Farrell's outfit tumbling down the track
causing serious rib injuries to 52 year old ex Darren Cafe passenger Don Morris who is now convalescing in Tamworth Hospital, get well soon Legend !

The B Final was a torrid affair with Somerset based Hunter Motor Cycle Clubs Alex Davies and Ipswich based Taylor "Tadpole" Poole swapping the lead while a disappointed British Speedway Premier League Rider of the Year Somerset based Cobra Sam Masters missed the cut and his night was over, Alex was leading into last turn of the 4 lap B final when Tadpole pulled the tight inside line got the drive and won the drag to the tapes!

Tyler King couldn't hold off Cowra's Brady Kurtz in the 350 Final with a consistent Gunnedah's Jordan Dall in the minors. Junior Multi Australian Dirt Track Champion Sean McLennan was leader in 500 Solo Support.

Taylor joined qualifiers at the start line for pre A final rider comments and had to wait while Daine Stevens chose the inside gate 1 , Kozza 3, Rohan 4.

The green on and tapes up for final saw four riders through the early turns bar to bar till Kozza pulled advantage on Taylor and Rohan fought hard for his third riding under Daine.

A little taste of the action in store for Kurri Cobras next meeting the "Boxing Night Showdown" with an exclusive star studded field that will not be seen at any other speedway in Australia, this "Kurri Big Bang" summer speedway season!

10th October: (From John Jackson) Click here to download the results of the Roy Thomsen Memorial for junior speedway.

14th September: (From John Jackson) Lake Macquarie speedway competitor Denny Cox wouldn’t have needed a Mum or Dad lullaby to put him to sleep last night after a very busy and very successful day of racing at Kurri Kuuri Speedway yesterday (Sunday 11 Sept).

The young teenager competed in two completely different divisions of speedway racing and was the outright winner in both divisions.

Cox competed in the Junior 125cc Solo division and was passenger for Tom Pearce in the Junior Sidecar Division.

In the solo speedway division Cox competed in five rounds of point-scoring heat racing and won every round giving him maximum points to qualify for the Final. Then in the Final he scored another victory to give him a clean sweep of the division.

Cox was hard pressed for victory in the Final by Victorian teenager Corey Pangbourne. The Melbourne based youngster made the long journey to Kurri Kurri because he has very limited opportunity to race junior speedway in Victoria.

Denny’s brothers, Brady and Liam, also rode in the Junior 125cc Division making it a very busy and quite unique family challenge.

But Denny’s day didn’t finish there because he also rode as passenger for rider Tom Pearce in the Junior Sidecar events. Despite finishing second in their opening heat, Pearce and Cox then went onto win their next four heats to run out winners of the Junior Sidecar event.

Cox will now be one of the favoured riders in the 2011 Roy Thomsen Memorial meeting for junior riders being conducted by the Kurri Kurri Speedway Club on Sunday 09 October along with a program of senior solo and sidecar events.

14th August: (From John Jackson) Great full days racing at Kurri Kurri Cobras Sunday August 14th.
Junior Solo 125 racing in morning was fast & furious. B, C & A Junior Finals good races.
Well disciplined, no false starts, no broken tapes, no 15 metre start penalties for tape touching. Two new licences tested and issued on the day, need to coach young riders to do their "lay down" demonstration on the soft part of the track!!
Junior sidecars were down on numbers but this will change rapidly as Junior riders prepare fully for Januarys three 2012 Australian U/16 Titles during Big Bang Speed Week.
New dry canteen sold out, thanks to all those that helped to get our Canteen Girls under cover, and they can still have filtered views of the track.!!!!
Craig Hyde was doing a brisk trade at his very well stocked Speedway Inc. lolly shop
Shower at lunchtime made Senior track challenging.
Perks had awkward fall but got his breath back and walked away !!!
Jack Holder, a little tired after 3 am start watching brother Chris ride at Swedish Grand Prix, has recovered from broken collar bone football injury to win 350s but was challenged all the way in final. Good training for the boys for 350 Australian Titles at Kurri January Sat 28th.
Hayden Bond's demonstration ride on dads Senior sidecar was very smooth, not like his 350 solo ride where jammed throttle, turn one lay down & malfunctioning ignition cut out, gave our hardworking Flag Marshall quite a few high voltage shocks before they could quieten the screaming beast !!!!
President Peter Campton let senior track wear through the afternoons events, there was plenty of dirt out wide for those who could handle the drive up to the air fence
3 full grids of well prepared, very competitive sidecars, four abreast, spills and thrills, right turns and left turns, Grant Bond wheelstanding out of turn two left passenger Glen Cox on track rubbing his cheeks, not the facial ones either!
Sidecar Final declared after Hudson jnr & Hudson snr back straight racing incident, stretchered off with leg injury, all are hoping everyone is ok.
Solo final was close and fast with wheelstanding Mason Campton getting the drive out wide and running the fence dirt from the last bend to squeeze past Kurri favourite Rohan Tugate and win by a 23" spoke length!!!!
The "Dynamic Duo" are off to pommyland for as many meets as they can muster, best of Cobras luck to you both!!!
"Ride Fast.... Ride Safe" the experience will be great and will be good to see you back here to qualify with our professional overseas riders for the three round 2012 Australian Titles.
Round two will be at Kurri Kurri Saturday Night Jan 14th
Two weeks later Saturday Night Jan 28th the "Dynamic Duo" will be a force to be contended with in the Australian U/21 Championship. This is a Double Header in conjunction with U/16 350cc Title. Qualifying will be Friday 27th.
Next Race Meeting at Kurri is Sunday Sept.11th, Juniors AM Seniors PM.
To make this meeting smoother and follow a reasonable time table, Cobras need race day staff to help with flags, sign ons and lap scoring as our overworked girls cannot be in two vastly separated places at once and then still have time for a pie and pee!!!

6th June: Great weather, fast track, close racing and enthusiastic crowd at Kurri Kurri Cobras Motorcycle Speedway Loxford Park Kurri Kurri today. Winner of the inaugural Todd Wiltshire Cup for Junior U/16 riders on 125cc machines was Jack Holder, youngest brother of Chris Holder the current Australian Senior Solo Champion. Second place went to Cowra's Brady Kurtz and third place to current South Australian U/16 Champion, Victorian Max Fricke. This is a reversal of positions 1 & 3 from when these riders met earlier in the year at Kurri in the Johnnie Hoskins Memorial meeting in February.

The format was five rounds followed by very even racing in the C, B, and then A Final with on track presentation by 3 times World Teams Champion and third placed World Speedway Champion Todd Wiltshire.

Junior sidecars were contested by Hudson, Gilbert & Bond.

350 U/16 was exciting final with Jack Holder pushing through on last turn to edge out Brady Kurtz.

Senior Sidecars round wins to Hudsons senior & junior, Rod Omealy ,Turner with Bond & Farrell in the mix.

In the senior solo rounds wins to Tungate, Campton and Cartwright. Wallace & Rowe were always pressing for minor positions.

Heat four incident in turn two where Rohan Tungate was leading with Mason Campton in very close company, saw Rohan locked up when his bike found too much traction, reared and shot out from under him. Both riders fell but only suffered minor injuries and damaged bikes. The referee excluded Tungate and declared the race.

There were no finals run in the afternoon senior programme as we were running short of time so positions were decided on points scored through the rounds.

Motorcycling NSW Air safety fence had its Speedway debut today and was instrumental in minimising risk and damage to riders and machines.

See you all this Sunday 12th for the Grand Final of the Four Team Tournament

Good Luck to all competitors in the 4TT Final Round @ Tamworth on Saturday.
