Ryan Farrell will be defending his title TONIGHT |

| Tonight sees the final night of Speedway racing action for the 2007-08 season
at the Perth Motorplex. The highlight of the event will be the twelfth running of the Sprintcar Gold Cup and along with a huge fireworks show, a glorious autumns day and Kids Free it all adds up to a spectacular way to enjoy a Saturday night. The event will also be the penultimate round of the AHG Sprintcar Series. A classy field has nominated for the meeting (nomination list), with Ryan Farrell defending his Gold Cup crown. Drivers will qualify in groups of three, before the running of the heat races - two per driver. The highest pointscorer from the time trial and the heats will start from the pole in the 25-lap A Main. The Gold Cup started at the Claremont Speedway with the "Bunbury Bullet" Ron Krikke winning the first four stagings of the event. Moving onto the high banks of the Perth Motorplex at Kwinana Beach - the honours have gone to Jamie Maiolo and Ryan Farrell three times apiece. American Ace Dean Jacobs has taken out the other race at Kwinana. Either Maiolo or Farrell could equal the four win record of Krikke tonight. Or will another name be added to the Honour Board. Only time will tell. |
