Don’t rule out Dillon

HE is one of the most qualifiers in Australian Sprintcar Racing and he is locked in for all four nights of the Clay-Per-View Sprintcar Speedweek commencing on December 26.

Never without speed and always with the street smarts of a man who has now spent 20 years in the Sprintcar saddle, Luke Dillon is just as determined as ever to cause an upset over his younger rivals.

With over 30 main event wins to his credit, including victories at all of the CPV Sprintcar Speedweek venues, the second-generation South Australian star has no reason to believe he can not get the job done in his Maxwill-motored Triple X.

“To be honest it would be nice to have done some more racing than we have leading into Speedweek, but everyone’s pretty well in the same boat,” Dillon said.

“We’ve had a first and a third at Murray Bridge so far this season, but we’ve had five rain-outs and one cancellation too.

“It hasn’t been ideal in terms of track time.”

Dillon has the #81 Action Line Marking/South West Conveyancing/Devil Karts entry prepped, primed and ready and he would love nothing more than to his repeat his stunning 2014-15 Speedweek Series victory.

The cartage contractor from Flagstaff Hill SA remains as one of the most versatile and capable racers the City of Churches has ever produced and ruling him out of www.clayperview.com Sprintcars Speedweek success would be gutsy and unwise.

Speedweek dates: December 26, 2022 – Murray Bridge Speedway; December 28, 2022 – Borderline Speedway Mount Gambier; December 30, 2022 – Avalon Raceway Lara; January 1, 2023 – Premier Speedway Warrnambool.

All four nights of Speedweek will be live streamed through Pay-Per-View.
