Circus night at Speedway opener

MAREEBA Speedway will be holding their season opener next weekend, 31 May, with a “circus night” theme and plenty of non-stop action.

Track events include Sprintcars, wingless sprints, super street, formula 400 and 500, and junior sedans.

“It’s a kid-friendly event, we cater for families so there’s something for everyone,” an organiser said.

“We have prizes for four different age groups for costumes based on our themes at each meeting, with this one being a circus.”

“We run a kids club with some games and an ice cream truck, and there will be a free jumping castle and a lolly drop.

Gates open at 3pm for the event at the speedway on Springs Road on Saturday 31 May, for the public. Racing starts at approximately 5pm.

“The event end time is variable depending on entries and what happens on the night, but usually over by 9 to 10pm,” the organiser said.
