[font=Times New Roman]“Leading up to our opening meeting there is a lot of excitement amongst our entire organisation and hopefully we can get off on the right foot,” said Towers. “Since I have taken over Gunnedah Speedway there have been a lot of improvements made, which includes updating the track, fence and all the spectator facilities to make everyone’s night as comfortable and enjoyable as possible.”[/font]

[font=Times New Roman][/font]

[font=Times New Roman]Towers continued on by saying that the opening meeting features a strong lineup of divisions to cater for everyone’s Speedway likes.[/font]

[font=Times New Roman][/font]

[font=Times New Roman]“The action amongst the Super Sedans will be a highlight of the night and a strong field has nominated and should provide plenty of action packed racing,” expressed Towers. “Any number of drivers is capable of winning on any given night and the driver to beat will be undoubtedly defending NSW series champion Tony Barklimore.”[/font]

[font=Times New Roman][/font]

[font=Times New Roman]One special aspect across all four divisions on the night will be the fact that there will be a mix of local drivers and that is sure to create a lot of interest amongst the fans.[/font]

[font=Times New Roman][/font]

[font=Times New Roman]“I’ve been quite taken back by the amount of help the Gunnedah community has shown to the re-opening of their Speedway,” expressed Towers. “They have all wanted to help out in their special way and believe me every little bit helps. There are still plenty of opportunities available for anyone that may want to be a part of Gunnedah Speedway either as a committee member or corporate backer.”[/font]
