Whoooa, I thought that super small track would suck for these 410 beasts but booooy, what a fun race! Cant believe "JMac" is back for good in Oz! Thats going to be rad!
Kinda sprintcar sized chilli bowl.. track came up great and great racing, in the end thats the main thing for me. Congrats to everyone for putting it on. Hope Friday night is s cracker!
all that is allowed. From the Speedway Australia rulebook: 4.31. FIELD SIZES a) Sedan Divisions: The absolute maximum field size for all Sedan Divisions is 24 cars. b) Open Wheel/Modified Divisions: Open Wheel and Modified Divisions are limited to 20 cars; however, some National Titles may allow 21 cars to accommodate the reigning champion if they have not qualified for the main title event. Please note: Some venues have lower limits, depending on the venue Safety Rating, and some have special dispensation for larger open wheel events in consultation with Speedway Australia. Tracks that have exemptions for 24 sprintcars or speedcars that I'm aware of are Sydney International, Perth Motorplex and Warnambool.
I think it's a great, challenging, fun-looking track, considering it's a makeshift track on a cricket field! Yeah, they didn't have much space to work with.
@curtishoke143 Well then, that makes a 410 Sprintcar a bit of a waste. They'd be much better of racing Midgets or Quarter Midgets. Anyway, they only put it up for the Formula 1 Carnival to role through town. Which is sad, because they've already got a perfectly good Speedway in Adelaide that hasn't been used for years. Just sitting, waiting, watching, for what I or why I don't know, but it's the only Capital City in Australia that doesn't have a Speedway.
@@frenzalrhomb6919 Nah mate, you need to expand your horizons. 410 sprint cars have their bets races on smaller tracks, aka "bull rings". The 1/2 mile tracks invariably lead to horsepower parades with little or no passing. Go watch the HL or Outlaws at Silver Dollar or Placerville (or any other of a number of short tracks, especially on the west coast of the US. Very exciting racing. And if you've ever been in person you know the horsepower is not "wasted" but that a skillful driver can put that horsepower to very good use.
@SelfEvident Absolutely, but a 1/5 mile? That's a place for some exciting Midget racing, and a 1/4 mile "Bullring" can bring the absolute best out in a driver. But down here in Australia, the one thing we don't have anymore, that I sometimes ache for, is an Australian East Coast 1/3 mile dirt track. We still have two left, but they're both on the West Coast of Australia, one in Perth, and the other in a town called Bunbury. I think that the 1/3 mile format is the perfect, not to big, not to small kind of size that just bring out what the big 410s bring, and that's raw power. If we don't get at least another 1/3 mile track over on this side of the country, we may as well go back to limiting ourselves to 360s again, and be done with it. And let's face it, a 360 does everything that a 410 can on a bullring, and they're every bit as exciting as the 410s, and it would also shave a lot of cost from the week to week expenses of any race team. And on top of that, it would open up the field to a lot of new talent, that might not otherwise be able to afford to go racing.
In Australia we hold the white flag out, and we wave the chequered flag. Reason being it’s easier for drivers know which flag they are getting if it’s held straight or being waved. From personal experience, sometimes a waving white can look like a waving chequered, so I’m grateful we do it this way.
It's the same here in Indonesia with also the same reasoning. We hold the White Flag/Lap Last flag out and wave the Chequered Flag for almost every type of motor racing. Except for Yellow Flags. Those we definitely wave. I guess it merely comes down to each country's Flag Showcase procedures. But the flag color language is pretty much universal.
@@lukmaanpratomo6866 *WHAT?* Indonesia has sprint car racing? If so, maybe there's hope for Tanner Holmes & Chris Windom. I thought Indonesia was a country made up of over 13,000 islands decimated by an Indian Ocean tsunami. That frankly looks like a big mowing headache.
@raymond3803 No no. Not at all. The current infrastructure simply doesn't let Sprint Cars to exist anywhere near here. It's mostly Rally and Motocross dirt races. I'm merely vouching what the guy above me stated that in some countries, the White Flag is merely held out instead of being waved.
That was excellent. Apparently there's Supercross too.. what a damn fine weekend!
God bless. It was amazing and unbeliviable what they did. An awesome race track!

Nah mate, 1/4 mile and 3/8 mile tracks invariably yield better racing than any 1/2 mile horsepower parade track.
@@SelfEvident sprintcar racing rarely gets boring tbf! what a sport
thought the exact same, great race
@@SelfEvident this is a lot smaller than 1/3 or 3/8 mile. It's only about 350m on the pole line
was wondering if you would like to get your car printed or cartooned on a T-shirt/frame/hoodie/wallpaper stickers or new logo
That shows you don't need banking to have good racing. Throw a reverse split in it and hang on👍😎 AWESOME JOB GUYS. Wish I was still doing it.

Thanks from the USA 🇺🇸 Happy to see the event looked like a success. Great racing
They threw down a good looking race track and top show with awesome racing . I will buy the stream for tonite
Huge success. Will pay for clayper view tonight. This is the best racing. Die hard sprintcar fan.
Go
Jmac and tmez
About time, Sprintcars 🇦🇺❤️❤️❤️❤️😊
They put on some good races ❤
Absolutely insane always love a good wheel stand
BIG CIRCLE!! CARS GO RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
Fantastic Show 🏁🏆💥
That's what I meant. Have the Western Sydney Dragstrip open. I remember going to the drags at Eastern Creek. As well as the old Triple Challenge days.
Ive so missed seeing Jock in it. Wtg champ.
was wondering if you would like to get your car printed or cartooned on a T-shirt/frame/hoodie/wallpaper stickers or new logo
Why cant V8SC include Drag Racing at Eastern Creek ?
From what I understand is that the dragstrip integrated into the front straight isn't certified, Was the main reason Western Sydney was constructed.
Where's the dust??
Did TMez miss the show?
yeah he spun while 3rd in heats. Got like 7th b main.
@@ashleyshipp8340What about Pickens? I guess he didnt make it out of the B either?
@@mjriemen No pretty sure. Although TMZ was fast.
Only 20 cars?

Good thing Tmez couldn't show up.He could give some lessons 😊.
Pretty sure he showed up…?
🤷♂️
@@mjriemen Showed and spun.
The shapes of the aussies dirt tracks look so weird.
it was literally built in a week on a cricket oval. The shape was largely dictated by the existing boundaries of the oval
I think it's a great, challenging, fun-looking track, considering it's a makeshift track on a cricket field! Yeah, they didn't have much space to work with.
@@frankisfunny2007 they just seem a lot more round in general than our American tracks. Not sure why that is.
How small is this track? Wow! Better racing the Speedcars (Midgets) at this place!!
1/5 mile
The Texan did good

Fuck you have absolutely no clue mate 😂
I missed which car you were driving?
8:25 What a lazy flagman. Okay........ flag person.
Holding the white flag out limp. Limp noodle. No waving.
Are they surrendering?
