A very impressive field of 29 Modified Sedans will head to Fraser Shores Maryborough Speedway this Saturday night for the Fraser Coast Cup. Outside of a State Title, this would be one of the biggest field of cars Maryborough has seen since during the past five years.
The event carries an impressive prize purse that pays $1,500 to win along with $1,000 for second which has certainly assist drive interest in this weekend’s event.
Former National Champions Aidan Raymont and Brett Baxter will be two of the leading contenders this weekend. Baxter has had a limited season in his brand new Holden Commodore, while Raymont has been in terrific form winning multiple feature races right around the state.
Darran Lester is another driver who’s captured a number of feature race wins this season and jumps back into his Modified Sedan after contesting the Victorian Production Sedan Title in Mildura last weekend. The Gilroy twins from Mackay will travel down to Maryborough to take part in the event and Wayne comes off a win at Rockhampton last weekend. His brother Myles has also claimed a feature race win so far this season.
Kingaroy’s Josh Harm beat home a very impressive field of Modified Sedans at the last event at Kingaroy and will be keen for another strong showing at a venue he has traditionally performed very well at.
The field doesn’t end there with the likes of Tim Atkin, Chook Geritz, Jason Boss, Tony Coomber, Josh Crang, Jim Cowley, Brenton Scott, Steven Quirk, Russell Harris and Josh Arthur just to name some of the others that have showed terrific speed this season.
Modified Sedans will contest 3 rounds of heats this weekend along with a qualifying final to determine the last couple of rows in the Main event.
