AHG Sprintcar Series

WELCOME to the home page of the AHG SPRINTCAR SERIES, the most exciting and successful Speedway series ever held in Western Australia - and one of the top dirt-track competitions in the entire country.

SPEEDWAY RACING NEWS Publisher David Tapp recently stated:- "I have not come across a more professional 'competitor organisation' than the SEG (Sprintcar Entrants Group) which is overseeing a strong resurgence in Sprintcar racing in Western Australia."

Season 2007-08 marks the "Eighth Edition" of the AHG Sprintcar Series - and the first powered by 410cu.in. grunt.

Non-stop, heart-in-your-mouth motor sport action is the recipe that has wowed thousands of fans on the west coast for the past seven summer seasons - and we're about to do it all over again during the upcoming 2007-08 battle of the brave!

The home circuit for the AHG Sprintcar Series rounds is the state-of-the-art Perth Motorplex at Kwinana Beach (high banked 500 metre clay oval), reputed to be one of the best Speedway ovals on the entire planet.

AHG Sprintcar Series showdowns have also been contested at the Bunbury City Speedway, Attwell Park Speedway (Albany), Esperance Speedway, Kalgoorlie Speedway and Northam Speedway.

Whenever the AHG Sprintcar Series travels into the interior of the vast state of Western Australia, it has attracted bumper crowds to the country venues - who marvel at the thrilling and unique style of dirt-track action that has been served up to them.

The success of the AHG Sprintcar Series can be gauged by the increased car counts every season (60 different drivers earned series points last summer) and the huge prizemoney payout (over $60,000) that was distributed at their annual black-tie Trophy Presentation evening.

Given the quality of talent lining up for every round of the sizzling summer of racing, it's fair to say that every round of the AHG Sprintcar Series is going to be a huge spectacle for all those present.

The "Myalup Missile" Jamie Maiolo won the first two Series in brilliant fashion, then fell just short of the "Italian Stallion" Pino Priolo the following year.

The bumper fourth season of the Series saw the multi Australian Speedcar (Midget) Champion Michael "The Magic Man" Figliomeni outgun his many rivals to claim the coveted prize.

Maiolo came back to annex the fifth series in fine style. Then veteran American ace Dean Jacobs won five main events as he raced to the series title for the high-profile 92.9 Kendrick Race Team.

Last summer it was Jamie Maiolo who triumphed yet again after a season long battle with Ryan Farrell.

Consistency is the name of the game in the AHG Sprintcar Series and the tension will mount in every race as the contenders battle it out for those all-important series points.

Make sure you don't miss a minute of the AHG Sprintcar Series action during the 2007-08 season.

So buckle up, flip down the helmet visor and fire up the beast that is the AHG Sprintcar Series.

See you at the track!!
