Drivers will kick their campaigns off at Murray Bridge Speedway on Monday, December 26, coming from far and wide, including South Australia, Victoria, Queensland, New South Wales, Tasmania and Texas.
The field committed to all four nights is made up of hardened veterans, exciting newcomers and established stars alike, with a significant representation of local heroes looking to cause an upset at their home track.
Texan teenager Chase Randall flies into Australia with his family to link up with the DKM Motorsport team in Pakenham, ready to make his Australian debut.
