The fastest Superkart drivers from around Australia will be congregating at the Paynter Dixon Sydney MasterBlast for the second and final round of the 2019 Superkarts Australia Nationals Series. There will be no shortage of on track action as drivers battle for championship glory in front of their biggest crowd in over a decade.
Defending 250 International champion llya Harpas will be looking to win his fourth title in succession but will have to fight hard against arch nemesis and veteran Gary Pegoraro as both drivers go into the race weekend sitting equal first on points. They will have plenty of competition from drivers such as Matt Bass, the young Victorian sitting third overall, and New Zealander Anton Stevens who has had his fair share of success at the Sydney Motorsport Park Circuit over the years.
The 250 National category will be a race of the elder statesmen vs the young newcomers with John Dunn and John Pellicano attempting to hold off Josh Miller. John Dunn will be looking to claim his first ever SKA Nationals title at his home circuit.
The 125 gearbox category will be the most hotly contested category of all with five or more drivers capable of winning races. Impressive fourteen-year-old youngster Blake Purdie from South Australia will look to consolidate his championship lead by finishing consistently at the front, whilst the two race winners so far this year, Lee Vella and Nicholas Schembri, will be ones to watch during the weekend. Local Sydney drivers will also be keen to register a good result with Adam Cogger a real threat for a race win, and Paul Campbell the reigning champion sure to be in contention at his home circuit.
If the racing in the past is anything to go by, the Superkarts will be a category not to be missed, providing one of the purest racing spectacles available in motorsport today.
Group N is a major crowd attraction, with cars that truly represent the Golden era of Motor racing, and has been at the forefront of the Muscle Car Masters now the Master Blast since the conception of the of the race in 2005.. The appeal to many spectators is the combination of competitive racing and a car display at the same time, particularly as the Group N field at Sydney MasterBlast is 50 cars strong!
Group Nb is for series production type touring cars manufactured prior to 31st December 1964, of which 100 of the particular model must have been produced (also known as Appendix J). This group is open to cars which were built and established a competition history either in Australia or overseas, provided the make and model was homologated with the FIA.
Group Nc is for touring cars of a make and model which competed in Australia between 1st January 1965 and 31st December 1972 in either the Australian Touring Car Championship or in races specifically for the 3rd Category Group C Improved Touring Cars as an example Mustang’s, Camaro’s, XU1 Torana’s, Mazda RX2, Ford Capris, Escorts, Mini’s to name a few.
This weekend will see Round 5 of the 2019 PAYNTER DIXON Historic Touring Cars NSW Championship, and with a full field of cars from the 60’s and 70’s you can be sure the racing will be entertaining and diverse throughout the field. The Historic Touring Car Association of NSW was the first club for Group N racing in Australia, and for over 39 years the HTCA NSW has nurtured and participated in Historic Touring Car racing.
The second club to share line honours is the Historic Group N Association NSW (Inc.), whose group also includs the iconic Mini’s vs Mustangs battles, plus Holdens, Fords, BMWs Mazdas, Chevs and Datsuns.
