24th October - Preview

Meeting Date: Saturday 24th October

Join Our Facebook Event | Purchase Advance Tickets For This Event. The annual Mr Gunn Trophy takes place on Saturday 24th October - the much sought after 1300 Stock Car trophy is currently held by Eddie Corr, who is currently taking some time out, so we will see a new winner on Saturday night!

A tasty 4 formula support adds to what will already be an excellent event, with the Ministox, Junior Productions, CC Rods and Stock Rods all in action! With visiting interest in both the Stock Rods and Junior Productions, we expect around 20 cars to be in action in each of these formula. The Ministox are back with us for the 2nd week in succession, where again, we will expect to see in excess of 20 cars take to the track as the youngsters look to put on a show. The CC Rods will have 1 final run out ahead of there Scottish Championship on the 31st October, an event the drivers will be looking to keep out of trouble and fine tune there race setups!

The 1300 Stock Cars are the headline event however, and we anticipate that 30 cars will take to the track, which will include several drivers making their debut in the formula, as well as a couple of returnees! Kyle Hegg makes a return to action having sat out the previous meeting here at Lochgelly Raceway, and will be hoping to get his hands on the silverware, though will have his work cut out with a pack of hungry 1300 drivers also chasing after the same thing! Andrew and Euan Mathieson need no introduction, both drivers know when and how to use the bumper to their advantage and will waste no time in disposing of those around them in order to make inroads in the race. Sean Naismith and Fraser Clark are 2 of the smoothest drivers on track, both with an excellent race craft, though neither have a reputation for hard hitting action – this pair of drivers are known for reading the race and making moves at the correct time in order to get through the grid quickest! Craig Warner and Gregor Whyte have both shown good pace from the lower grades over the last month or so, and will be looking to pick up the pieces as the pack around them battle it out! Dougie Ford, Scott Lindsell and Patrick Calderwood all have the pace to succeed, but have often been the victim of some unfortunate DNF’s! Former Scottish Champion Callum Barclay makes a return to action as he bides to take a win in a race that means more to him than most. Mitchell Gold and Charlie Henry are both booked in and expect to make there 1300 Stock Car debut’s having progressed from the Ministox – can either of them reign victorious and cause an upset?? One thing for sure, is that the 1300 Stock Cars will put on a show as they race for the Mr Gunn Trophy!

The Stock Rods seen a respectable 16 cars in action last weekend and provided some good racing as a result – it is anticipated that we will see nearer 20 cars come Saturday evening, with numbers being bolstered further with the likes of Dean O’Dell, Niall McFerran and Adam McFall all booked into race. National Points Champion Siobhan Martin will be looking to bounce back from, by her standards, a disappointing meeting last weekend. Scottish Champion Chris Lattka will be hoping to score another good haul of points. Jim Pitcaithly took a double race win last weekend, that will see him elevated to red grade for Saturday night – can he bag another win or 2 from a bit further back, or will the flag fall the way of someone else? Darren McAlpine will be looking to get a win after a series of races where he has often finished in the podium places. Gary Nicholls has turned his form around and is now up there and on the pace – an experienced driver with a quick car under him, will be hard to beat, though, is another driver who is no stranger to reliability issues!

The Ministox always provide super racing here at Lochgelly Raceway and with the season nearing it’s latter stages, it hasn’t stopped the enthusiasm of the kids and their race teams. Sam Cavanagh is hoping to be back out with us having had a series of shunts over the last few meetings, he’ll be hoping for a quiet meeting this weekend as he looks to score a few points for his efforts. Rian Mitchell has been one of the most improved drivers over the last few meetings, seeing his points tally bounce up following a tough time of it in the earlier stages of the season. Robbie Armit, Lewis Burgoyne and Charlie Hardie will be looking to take the honours, but with such a competitive field of cars on track, with a lot of unpredictable racing, any driver is capable of taking a win or 2!

The Junior Productions have seen some super action in 2020, with a fair share of talking points too – it is hoped that the youngsters will continue with providing some excellent racing, whilst keeping the racing clean on track. James Slater and Dylan Smart have both improved greatly over the course of the season, with both drivers showing the pace to match those starting from red grade. The battle for the track championship continues to be close, with John Bremner, Harvey Sneddon, Koddi Wright and Jas Walle all still in contention. One bad meeting for any of these drivers could see there chances go up in smoke – consistency is key at the moment, with races not being won on the first corner!

The CC Rods are the final formula in action, and are another formula that will see the track championship battle go right to the end. Brian Allen, Lee Scott, Dylan Coutts, Kyle Hutchison and Brandon Gourlay are separated by less than 20 points – and with there Scottish Championship on offer next weekend, there is still EVERYTHING to play for in this CC Rods battle.

This Saturday night, is a meeting NOT to be missed!!!
