Formula Stock Rods - Posted 4 May, 2008

The Brisbane Formula Stockrods will be conducting the Queensland Title on the 17th May.

With 20 cars nominated, this is shaping up as a highlight on the stockrod calander.

Invited New Zealand drivers include the countries number 1 and number 2 drivers in Steve Rees and
Clive Pritchard who will certainly add some spice to the event.

NZ Stockcars are full contact where as here, we are governed by some rules which tones down our amount of
contact but still spirited racing is expected.

Local Aussie champ, Greg Churchill, will be out to improve his form after a run of handling problems along
with former champ, Steve Bateman, also having a run of outs.

New blokes on the block pushing claims for victory are Wayne Nowlan, after a couple of Feature race wins along with The Brisbane Classic Cup trophy in the cabinet will be going hard with Jason Martin who is showing some good speed around the top of the track where he likes to ride.

Dennis Fabian and Kev Healy are giving their cars up for the Kiwi's to drive and we thank them for that.

Should be a great night's racing and fans are welcome to come down to the pits to meet the drivers and find out a bit more about the club.
