2012 Twilight Trans-Tasman Challenge & Rotax Max Challenge
15 December 2011
Kartsport Manawatu is very pleased to announce that we have four Australian drivers confirmed for the 2012 Twilight Trans-Tasman Challenge to be held at the Manawatu Toyota Raceway, Palmerston North on Saturday 18th February.
Intrepid driver Lane Moore, the current New Zealand Rotax Max Heavy champion, will be returning to defend the 1st round title he won last year, and joining him for the first time is the exceptionally quick Tyler Greenbury in Rotax Light. Tyler was a member of the Australian team which won the teams section of the 2012 Rotax Max Grand Finals.
Also competing in Junior Max is Lachie McHugh who is a consistent front runner in Australia and a driver to watch out for.
Junior Restricted will be one of the biggest fields expected, and full of quick locals, but adding to the mix will be the very accomplished Reece Sidebottom who has earnt himself a reputation of being a very fast driver, and will no doubt be the one to beat.
Club President Tony Drysdale said "we are very happy with the calibre of the Australian drivers, and hope to confirm three more drivers next week including a very established Arrow driver."
The best of Australia is coming, let's make sure NZ"s best drivers are there to race them.
So get your entry in and be part of New Zealand's premier twilight meeting.
