Newcastle Oval Track racing set for year

The lights flicker ‘three… two… one’; each pause punctuated by the deep purr of an engine, and then the flag drops.

The racers speed around the raceway in clouds of dust and smoke.

Lines are taken through corners and mistakes are made as racers spin off or crash out.

This is the action of the oval track.

From the agile daring young stars of the rookie divisions to the mad roar of the V8s, the action leaves both racers and fans with their adrenaline pumping.

The racing year accelerates off for Newcastle Oval Track on January 31.
