Hey buddy, do you know the date of this race? I'm a bit confused by it (I'm getting old lol) I crashed my car there on Feb 14 1997 (see Video Craig Power 1996 - I had the date wrong when it was posted) so this has to be earlier than that or late in the year for the '97 '98 season I think. The footage mentions me but I can't see my car there. My other 2 cars are there driven by Mark Patton & John Mills so I can't even think why my brother wasn't driving his car. In this era I was driving the car in my Video and it won pretty much every race it finished and that isn't evident in your footage...messing with my head lol.
Hi Craig, nice to hear from you and I remember you racing at Speedway City (I was a photographer there) I have this meeting down as the final one for the 1996/97 season on Friday April 4, 1997. Wendy Turner (Promoter/Owner/Operator 1996-2016 for those who don't know) donated these Speedway City videos so we can all remember the good times and great racing. I will post the full meeting later and continue into the 1997/98 season where I'm sure you will feature.
Thanks heaps for that, I reckon then that I'm driving the half Black half White 5 car, which was a spare...that makes sense now, the crashed car was flown to NZ for repair and my spare wasn't anywhere near as good a car to drive. Once repaired that car only ran in Victoria until I destroyed it again in Hamilton...I threw the spare together again for my final race before retiring, so I probably wouldn't feature after this one.@@speedwayhistory
