The Esperance Speedway will host the longest race in the West this year with the 'Electrical Service Solutions' Forty Lapper. Esperance AMCA stalwart Peter 'Churchy' Walker came up with the idea of a 40 lap race, and now the dream is about to become reality on the 9th of January 2010. The Esperance club has got right behind Peter opening the track up the night before for a practice session and BBQ.
Electrical Service Solutions is the major sponsor of the event with Sandrat Stika Signs also on board. Sandrat Stika Signs will sponsor an AMCA tyre for the winner of the Top 8 knockout. The knockout consists of two laps starting with position 8 vs 7 with the winner of the knockout staying on the track. The eventual winner will start the feature from Pole.
The event promises to be the biggest AMCA show outside of the state title in WA with cars from Perth and Kalgoorlie already nominated.
This round also doubles as Round 2 of the Wrothy's Workshop Gear Country Tri-Series currently being lead by Laurens "Big Ted" Visser.
