Organisers said 3000 visitors feasted their eyes on cars, bikes and trikes of all shapes and size. Jennifer Ellsley, 20, of Nightcliff and Emma Westlund, 17, of Humpty Doo reassembled a Holden four cylinder motor in 4.15 minutes as part of the Shannons Flyer Spanners yesterday. Derrek Sperrer's new supercharged Willy's was unveiled yesterday with a gleaming gold paint scheme. Its sure to be a flash of gold when it hits the strip later this year.

It was Ben's second 'Winters' crown and came on the back end of a tidy pre-event test day. Team Bray (after a long battle) appears to be dialling in the Castrol Edge Monaro well. A series of good reaction times and a fantastic semi final win against John Zappia that saw Ben lay down a 6.011 to Zaps 6.033 brought the Willowbank Raceway fans to their feet. His finals victory was the icing on the cake to finish off a fantastic Castrol EDGE Winternationals for Team Bray. 2 3 4 5 6 7 Next >> Content Management Powered by CuteNews
