Fast Racing Field Released

shannons-fast-racing-series-logoThe Junior Speedway Racing Association (JSRA) in association with the Perth Motorplex are excited to release the field of Ellement Produce Junior Sedans for Round 4 of the JSRA Metropolitan Junior Sedan Series to be held at the Perth Motorplex tomorrow evening.

Jackson Derrick, Mitchell Bosveld, Izak Davies and Blake Webb have all stood on the podium at the Perth Motorplex this year and will hope to repeat this on the high banks tomorrow night.

Jake Avins has suffered nothing but mechanical dramas at the Perth Motorplex season, on board the Armstrong Motorsport Daihatsu Charade. The Collie racer will be looking to turn things around and earn some valuable points in the Metro Series, as will Tanika Webb.

Beau Doyle will return to the Perth Motorplex tomorrow evening with his immaculately presented Daihatsu Charade. Beau has also suffered some mechanical issues this season, but seems to have those sorted and will be one to watch as he tries to work his way to the front of the field.

Bryden Southwell and Luke Malcolm have had some brilliant duals throughout the state this season and this will continue tomorrow evening for sure. Both drivers will be hoping to take the top step of the podium at the Perth Motorplex tomorrow evening and earn some valuable points with only one round of the series remaining.

The two lady racers in the New Star field, Jade McKeagg and Tia Wormall have shown what they’re capable of already this season and will no doubt take it right to the boys in a battle for the round victory.

The on track program gets underway 6pm tomorrow evening, with the first Ellement Produce Junior Sedan event scheduled for 6.35pm, so be sure to get to the Perth Motorplex tomorrow evening. If you can’t be trackside, stay tuned to the JSRA Facebook page for all the up to date results.

JSRA Returns this Weekend!

jsra-logo-transThe Junior Speedway Racing Association fires back into action after two long months with two huge nights of racing this weekend.

With Round 4 of the JSRA Metropolitan Series at the Perth Motorplex on Friday night, followed by Round 5 of the JSRA Country Super Series at Moora Speedway, this weekend promises to be yet another exciting weekend of Junior Sedan action.

Nominations close tomorrow evening for Friday’s Metro Series event, though drivers will be looking to gain some valuable points with only two rounds of the series remaining. A full list of drivers will be released when nominations close.

Saturday night’s Country Super Series event at Moora Speedway will be proudly sponsored by True Value Hardware, Moora and has attracted two sensational fields of Junior Sedans.  With 12 New Stars and 23 Top Stars entered for the event, the JSRA return to Moora Speedway promises to be fantastic.

The New Star field is headlined by Bryden Southwell, Luke Malcolm and Pack siblings, Jhy and Montana. These drivers have been at the front of the new star field all season and will hope for a successful return this weekend. Looking to take it to the visiting drivers will be local trio of Alec, Taj and Connor Vanzetti.

Jake Avins, Blake Webb and Peter Katona will enter this weekend’s event as the early favourites in the Top Star field after a strong first half of the season. A noticeable absence from this weekend’s line up is Kalgoorlie’s Jacob Potts, who has other commitments that he must attend. Series regulars Jackson Derrick, Chantelle Bate, Brooke Watson and Seth Hinsey will also be hoping to gain some valuable series points on their rivals as we enter the second half of the season.

Moora racers of Jess Staines and Ebony Does will look to use their track knowledge to move to the front of the quality field, as will midwest racers Ashley and Mitchell Baker and Jack Dalton. Stefani and Corey Ameduri will also be hoping for a strong outing in their Hyundai Excels this weekend at the Central Midlands venue.

Be sure to head to the Perth Motorplex on Friday night for Round 4 of the JSRA Metropolitan Junior Sedan Series and Moora Speedway on Saturday night for the True Value Hardware Moora Round 5 of the JSRA Country Super Series from 6pm.

If you cannot be at the track, stay tuned to the JSRA Facebook page and website for all the up to date information on the JSRA Metropolitan and Country Super Series’.

Team Australia Released

jsra-logo-transThe Junior Speedway Racing Association is pleased to announce the 2017 Team Australia that will head to New Zealand to take on the best Ministock racers in just under two weeks time.

The team will be captained by Kalgoorlie’s Jacob Potts and Geraldton’s Jayke Malcolm, two of the most experienced drivers on the team, who have had some great results on home turf so far this season. The pair have visited New Zealand previously and will no doubt share their knowledge of the Ministocks to the new members of the team.

The Fraser family have made the trip across the ditch on numerous occasions and will be represented by Bronty, Alex and Tyler Fraser for this years trip. Bronty’s older brother Josh is one of the most experienced members of past teams and will no doubt share his trade secrets with Bronty before they leave Perth.

Alex Fraser will take his place in the team for the first weekend of racing from February 24-26. Unfortunately, he will be unable to race the second weekend, as he has a birthday between the events and will exceed age restrictions. This means younger brother Tyler will get the call up and will take his spot on the team.

Jasmine Arnold will fill the position left vacant by older brother Isaac who is unable to race due to age restrictions. This will be a great experience for Jasmine, who despite the fact is only at the beginning of her racing career has shown great promise this season.

The final member of Team Australia for this year will be filled by Bullsbrook’s Jackson Derrick, who is very excited to make the trip for the first time. Jackson has had some great results so far this season and will be hoping to gain some valuable experience from his first trip to New Zealand.

The Team will depart Perth on Thursday February 23rd and will race the following two weekends before returning to home soil ahead of Round 6 of the JSRA Country Super Series at Quit Collie Speedway on March 11th.

All the latest information on Team Australia will be posted on the JSRA Facebook page, so be sure to like and follow this during the trip.

Murray Herbert Christmas Cup to Webb and Southwell

shannons-fast-racing-series-logoBlake Webb and Bryden Southwell have last night claimed the 2016/2017 Murray Herbert Christmas Cup at the Perth Motorplex.

The event doubled as Round 3 of the JSRA Metropolitan Series and yet again saw some fantastic racing from the Junior Sedans. A quality field of 8 Top Star Juniors raced hard for positions throughout the three heat races, with Blake Webb proving too strong in all three. The fight behind him was very close with Stefani Ameduri, Jackson Derrick figuring prominently.

When it came to the feature race, Webb got away to a handy lead, however as the laps continued to wind down, Ameduri started to apply the pressure and soon took the lead of the race. Jackson Derrick continued to work his way through the field, as did Alex Swift who worked his way up to fourth position, fighting with Izak Davies.

When the checkered flag flew, Stefani Ameduri was first across the line ahead of Blake Webb and Jackson Derrick. Luckily for Webb, his three heat race victories earlier in the night was enough to give him top points on the night and Murray Herbert Christmas Cup.

In the New Star division, Bryden Southwell once again started the night in the best possible way, winning each of the heat races, which he then continued by winning the feature race. Tia Wormall followed behind in second and continues to gain valuable track time, with Jade McKeagg finishing third. Southwell scored the most possible points and walked away with the Murray Herbert Christmas Cup also.

A big thank you to the Perth Motorplex for their continued support of the JSRA and their valued sponsors Shannons and Ellement Produce for getting behind the Fast Racing Series and Junior Sedans throughout 2016/2017.

The JSRA now takes a break over the festive season and throughout the month of January to allow our members to compete in the National Junior Sedan Title at Borderline Speedway Mount Gambier, followed by the Victorian Junior Sedan Title at Swanhill the next after. The West Australian Junior Sedan Title will then take place at Quit Bunbury Speedway across the weekend of January 27-29.

We would also like to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and Happiest of New Years and look forward to a successful 2017.

Ameduri and Southwell Triumph

jsra-country-super-series-r4Ellenbrook’s Stefani Ameduri has won an action packed Round 4 of the JSRA Country Super Series supported by Hamon Tyre and Exhaust Centre at Quit Bunbury Speedway last night, as did Bryden Southwell in the New Star division.

With close to 40 Juniors sedans across both divisions, the night promised to be an entertaining one and that it was. From the first green flag, the New Star juniors were all out looking for a successful night. Bryden Southwell, Luke Malcolm and Jhy Pack were very quick, as Montana Pack and Bunbury’s Matthew Thomson gained speed with each race.

Bryden Southwell, Luke Malcolm and Montana Pack would share wins in each of the qualifying heats, though it was clear the 15 lap feature race would go down to the wire to decide the winner.

Luke Malcolm and Bryden Southwell made the best of the start in the feature race for the night and ran side by side for a number of laps. Montana Pack moved her way through the field passed her brother Jhy and Matthew Thomson. Bryden Southwell soon moved clearly into the lead, with the rest of the field chasing hard and fighting it out for the minor places.

With the laps winding down, Luke Malcolm, Montana Pack and Matthew Thomson fought hard for second through to fourth position, as Jhy Pack and Kalgoorlie’s Lachlan Dellar raced behind. Bryden Southwell would prove too strong yet again this season to record his third round victory of the 2016/2017 JSRA Country Super Series. Luke Malcolm would finish second, with Matthew Thomson getting ahead of Montana Pack on the last lap.

New Star Junior Sedan Final: 1. W63 Bryden Southwell, 2. W22 Luke Malcolm, 3. W15 Matthew Thomson, 4. W78 Montana Pack, 5. W98 Jhy Pack, 6. W95 Lachlan Dellar, 7. W8 Brody Day, 8. W66 Possum Lawrence, 9. W122 Dean Schofield

With three qualifying heats per round, the racing in the Top Stars was set at a high pace, with many drivers racing two, three and even four wide on a number of occasions. Izak Davies’ night would come to a premature end in his first heat of the night, getting on two wheels before rolling onto Rahni Musarra’s car.  Dylan Parkes, Jake Avins and Stefani Ameduri would win the first three heats, while Peter Katona would prove too strong in heat four of the night.

Avins and Stefani Ameduri would record their second heat victories of the night, before Jayke Malcolm and Izzac Delaporte added their names to the winners list. Jake Avins would win his last heat of the night, going through undefeated and earning himself a pole position start for the 20 lap feature.

A constellation race was held for the drivers that did not qualify in the top 20, with Tylar Main proving too strong for Daniel Erceg and Geraldton’s Mitchell Baker.

With 20 laps ahead of the 20 car feature field, the angry pack headed into into turns 1 and 2, with many drivers racing two and three wide. Stefani Ameduri would take the lead in the early proceedings, with Jake Avins, Jacob Potts and Jayke Malcolm racing in close proximity for many laps. Further back in the field Jorj Park started to make his charge through the field, as many drivers raced hard for the minor positions.

The yellow lights would soon come on with Alex Fraser facing the wrong way in turn 4. At this point Jayke Malcolm would be relegated 2 positions for jumping the start. When the green flag flew again, the race was again held at a quick pace with Jake Avins and Jacob Potts racing side by side chasing down the leader in Ameduri.

Trouble would soon hit, when Jacob Potts would have one of the biggest Junior Sedans rollovers seen in quite some time, ending his night. Jacob was able to walk away with some bruising and a minor cut, while his car was left all but destroyed. Jayke Malcolm would be forced to retire also sustaining damage while avoiding a rolling Potts.

After a small delay to clear the damaged car, the field got back underway, with Ameduri continuing to lead from Jake Avins and Jorj Park. Kalgoorlie’s Dylan Parkes started to make his way through the field, as Jaymee Park retired from the event along with Corey Ameduri.

In the concluding stages of the race, Jake Avins started to chase down Stefani Ameduri, as Jorj Park applied the pressure to Avins, with Dylan Parkes racing hard also. Alex Fraser would find himself facing the wrong way in turn 2, which would see the yellow lights come on. Fraser would retire from the event at this point also.

Jake Avins would make a great restart and looked for a pass on Stefani Ameduri, as Jorj Park, Dylan Parkes and Izzac Delaporte raced hard for the minor places. The top five drivers raced hard on the final lap of the race, though Stefani Ameduri proved too strong in her new Hyundai Excel finishing ahead of Jorj Park, Jake Avins and Izzac Delaporte.

Top Star Junior Sedan Final: 1. W83 Stefani Ameduri, 2. W74 Jorj Park, 3. W11 Jake Avins, 4. W88 Izzac Delaporte, 5. W3 Dylan Parkes, 6. W108 Blake Webb, 7. W06 Peter Katona, 8. W10 Ashley Baker, 9. W71 Zac Minshull, 10. W37 Brooke Watson, 11. W7 Alex Swift, 12. W13 Blake Fletcher, 13. W17 Jhye Kent, 14. W67 Nikita Donohoe, 15. W4 Tyler Fraser DNF: W81 Jacob Potts, W23 Jayke Malcolm, W77 Jaymee Park, W183 Corey Ameduri, W2 Alex Fraser

A big thank you to the team at Hamon Tyre and Exhaust Centre for their support of this round of the JSRA Country Super Series.

The JSRA will fire into action for one final time in 2016 on Friday night, December 16, for Round 3 of the JSRA Metropolitan Series at the Perth Motorplex. The JSRA will then have a break over the Christmas and New Year period where the National, Victorian, South Australian and West Australian Junior Sedan Titles will be decided.

Big Fields for Bunbury

jsra-country-super-series-r4The 2016/2017 JSRA Country Super Series fires back into action this weekend at Quit Bunbury Speedway for the Hamon Tyre and Exhaust Centre sponsored fourth round of the highly competitive series.

Some of the best Junior Sedan competitors in Australia will head to Bunbury, not only in search for a JSRA Round victory, but will also be looking to take out the Auto One Junior Cup. As the WA Junior Sedan Title will be held at the same venue in late January, it will prove to be a great opportunity to get some practice in ahead of this event.

A field of nine New Stars have entered with Bryden Southwell and Luke Malcolm headlining the list having both taken out rounds of the series so far this season. They will have Jhy and Montana Pack chasing at their tails, both of which will be looking for a round victory for the first time this season.

Brody Day will make the trip from Narrogin, while Isabella Freeland will come from Manjimup for the event and will be against some stiff competition with the likes of Lachlan Dellar, Dean Schofield and Erin Fraser.

A high quality field of thirty Top Star Juniors have nominated for this weekend, which will give many of them a chance to refine their cars ahead of the upcoming National Title at Borderline Speedway in Mount Gambier in South Australia and the WA State Title in Bunbury.

Jake Avins, who has won two of the three rounds so far this season is in fantastic form and will look to continue this on Saturday night, though will have Jacob Potts, Blake Webb, Jackson Derrick and Jorj Park chasing him down. Come the end of the night, either of these drivers could be at the pointy end, though they will be under series pressure from a stack of JSRA series regulars including Alex Fraser, Peter Katona, Jayke Malcolm or Izak Davies. Izzac Delaporte will head the charge of the locals and will be looking for success on his home track this weekend.

Racing gets underway from 6pm on Saturday night, with live results being posted on the JSRA Facebook page and website (jsrawa.com).

A big thank you must go to Mick and Teash from Hamon Tyre and Exhaust Centre for their support of the JSRA this season and tonight, as sponsors of the fourth Round of the JSRA Country Super Series.

Avins and Southwell Win Again

logoJake Avins and Bryden Southwell have recorded their second round victories of the JSRA Country Super Series by winning Round 3 of the series at Albany’s Attwell Park Speedway, supported by Eyerite Signs.

With seventeen Top Star Junior Sedans ready for the night of racing, the racing as we have come to expect from the Junior Sedans was held at a hectic pace. Blake Webb and Jake Avins began the night in the best possible way, by winning their first heat of the night.

Jake Avins then continued in his winning way, recording his second victory for the night, defeating Peter Katona and Blake Fletcher. Jacob Potts would defeat Jayke Malcolm in their second heat race of the night ahead of Blake Webb.

The final heats for the night would go the way of Jorj Park, while Jacob Potts continued his consistent form finishing second ahead of Peter Katona. Jake Avins would record his third win of the night, locking him in for pole position for the feature race to come. Jayke Malcolm finally put together some solid race finishes, finishing second ahead of Alex Fraser.

Jake Avins and Jacob Potts would start the twenty-lap feature race from the front row and would fight hard for the lead for a number of laps with Jorj Park close behind and looking for a way past. Further back in the field, the race was well and truly on in earnest with numerous drivers racing side by side to gain position.

With the lead changing on a variety of occasions between Avins, Potts and Park, Jorj Park would take the lead before the yellow lights would come on for Brooke Watson who stopped in turn 3. At this point, officials deemed that Jorj Park made a pass on the infield and relegated him back two positions.

With twelve laps remaining, the race for the lead would continue, with Blake Webb now moving into the battle. Jackson Derrick started his charge through the field, dicing with Jayke Malcolm, Peter Katona and Alex Fraser. With the laps winding down, Jacob Potts and Jake Avins continued their battle, swapping positions a number of times. Alex Fraser continued to race hard with Jackson Derrick, before he retired from the event.

Broome duo of Blake Webb and Jorj Park fought hard for the minor positions, as the leaders continued to race hard for the lead. As the white flag came out, Jacob Potts closed up behind Jake Avins and started to apply immense pressure as they moved around the track for the final time. This would be too late, as Jake Avins went on to record his second round victory of the 2016/2017 JSRA Country Super Series ahead of Jacob Potts and Blake Webb.

In the New Stars, a small yet quality field of eight cars faced the green flag and put on a great show throughout the night, with close racing in each of the heat races and the final.

Jhy Pack made a fantastic start to the night of racing, defeating Bryden Southwell and Luke Malcolm in the first heat of the night. After winning the night prior at the Perth Motorplex, Luke Malcolm put together a solid set of laps, defeating Bryden Southwell and Jhy Pack in the second heat of the night.

The final heat of the night would go the way of Bryden Southwell, who would defeat Luke Malcolm and Montana Pack to start from pole position in the fifteen lap final to follow.

The final race got underway with an even dispatch between Southwell and Malcolm, but Jhy Pack quickly moved to the inside to take the lead through turns 1 and 2. Bryden Southwell was relegated back to third, before Luke Malcolm would all but spin out in turns 3 and 4, losing a couple of positions.

Bryden Southwell now started to charge after the leader Jhy Pack with Albany local Mitchell Claybrook sitting in third position. Southwell soon made a clean pass on Jhy Pack and took the lead as the field continued to circulate around the Attwell Park track. Jhy Pack started to get busy behind Bryden Southwell, as Luke Malcolm started to close the gap between himself and the leaders, as did Montana Pack.

At the half way point, the race was anyone’s to win, with Jhy Pack and Bryden Southwell racing side by side for the lead, with Luke Malcolm watching on closely behind before making it three wide momentarily. Bianca Kennedy, Hope Batchelor and Brody Day continued to battle for the minor places further behind as the leaders continued to battle it out.

As the laps wound down, Montana Pack started to make her charge through the field and soon looked to line brother Jhy up for a pass. Mitchell Claybrook would then spin his car in turns 3 and 4, which would force a three lap restart.

When the race got back underway, Jhy Pack gave Bryden Southwell a handy lead, as the white flag came out a lap early. Jhy Pack would have once last effort to take the lead, as Luke Malcolm closed up behind Montana Pack, racing hard for the last step on the podium. In sight of the finish line, Luke Malcolm would lose control in front of Montana Pack, allowing Bianca Kennedy to come from the copwebs and steal a third place finish ahead of Montana Pack, Hope Batchelor, Brody Day, Mitchell Claybrook and Luke Malcolm.

The JSRA Country Super Series will return in two weeks at the Quit Bunbury Speedway for Round 4 of the series presented by Hamon Tyre and Exhaust Centre. This will be a great opportunity for the junior teams to test their machinery ahead of the West Australian Junior Sedan Title at the same venue.

Webb and Malcolm Win

shannons-fast-racing-series-logoBroome’s Blake Webb and Geraldton’s Luke Malcolm have claimed Round 2 of the JSRA Metropolitan Series for their respective divisions at the Perth Motorplex last night.

A quality field of Junior Sedans were on hand for the Shannons Fast Racing Series event, with eleven Top Stars and five New Stars racing the green flag. As we have come to expect from Junior Sedan racing in WA, drivers raced three and four wide, even five wide at some points, which was an absolute spectacle.

With slippery track conditions to start the night, Jackson Derrick would hold on to record the first victory of the night, as did Bryden Southwell in the New Star division. Kalgoorlie’s Jacob Potts would break an axle while moving through turn two, which in turn sent him into the concrete wall. Luckily his team was able to fix the car ahead of the next heat race.

The second heat of the night, would see the hard and fast racing continue throughout the field of Top Stars and New Stars, with Alex Swift quickly taking the lead. Ashley Baker and Brooke Sutton would try chase him down, but had to hold on for second and third. Bryden Southwell would again prove too strong in the New Star field defeating Tia Wormall and Luke Malcolm.

The third and final heat of the night would be a dramatic one with an incident between Alex Swift, Corey Ameduri and Jayke Malcolm causing a yellow light. When the racing got back underway, Jackson Derrick and Blake Webb would race in close proximity for the lead, while Jacob Potts charged through the field. Luke Malcolm would get the upper hand of Bryden Southwell in the New Stars and record his first Metro series victory in his new car.

With a slightly depleted field, the feature for the night got underway, with Blake Webb, Brooke Sutton, Mitchell Bosveld and Jackson Derrick all fighting for the lead. Jackson Derrick would then make contact with a lapped car and would be sent to the rear of the field. Brooke Sutton would continue her charge after Blake Webb, levelling up with Webb on numerous occasions. Jackson Derrick would continue his charge through the field and would finish a narrow third ahead of Mitchell Bosveld at the end of the race, while Blake Webb would record the victory ahead of Brooke Sutton.

Luke Malcolm and Bryden Southwell would have a close battle to the line in the New Star feature, while Tia Wormall and Jade McKeagg looked for a strong finish. When the checkered flag dropped, Malcolm would deliver his first metro series round victory ahead of Bryden Southwell and Tia Wormall.

Attention will now turn to Round 3 of the JSRA Country Super Series, which heads to Albany’s Attwell Park Speedway tonight, with another top quality field of Top and New Stars set to do battle.
