Before stock rods Hannah raced ministox's for 3 years and worked her
way up to superstar in one grading period in a car which was also
built by her dad, winning the club 21 championship along the way!

although it was wet, oily and very slippery!
Hannah started last every race to ensure that she did not cause or end
up in any trouble. She managed to make up several places in both heats
and in the final. Hannah is now looking forward to the next race
meeting which is at St.Day Raceway on the 13th February.

Important Steering hub arms please read.

has come to our attention that people are heating and bending the steering
hub arms and re- bolting them.
This is illegal and if caught you will be banned.

As featured on the Spedeworth web site..... Clarification on Rolling Thunder Any driver wishing to race at the Rolling Thunder Show may do so but must book in through the Spedeworth Office. Form then on, however, you would forfeit all complimentary tickets and prize money indefinitely. If you are found to be racing at RTS without permission you will be subject to a 6 month ORCi ban.
Announcement from Spedeworth:
Spedeworth have noticed the significant drop in numbers of Stock Rods and Lightning Rods at meetings recently and feel that we must do something. We would like suggestions on whether the formulas need to be made cheaper and in what ways this can be accomplished. The trend of low numbers is not only affecting Spedeworth meetings but those at Incarace and Stock Rods at Autospeed etc too and we are afraid to say that they are simply no longer putting on a show. We would like suggestions from drivers using their real names and race numbers (as opposed to hiding behind fake names) before we have to make our own decisions. We would also appreciate any suggestions from fans too as Spedeworth value your opinion highly too. Come on drivers lets get them cars out ! want your say go to the forum as Spedeworth don't know why cars are not out there. All of us have spent time and money on our Stock Rods ....Do we need rule changes (don't think so) If the nubers keep dropping Stock Rod may be dropped from all major events.
