A Brief History of Wakefield Park The Wakefield Park circuit was built by Paul Samuels and John Carter and was opened officially by John Fahey, the then NSW Premier and member for the Goulburn district in November 1994. It was built with club motor sport firmly in mind and with the control tower and paddock facilities and carports it made some of our existing circuits look a bit out dated. Track days and supersprints were the usual events with race days for cars, motor bikes and go karts also becoming popular at the circuit. At 2.2 kilometres, with an reasonable length straight leading to a section of uphill bends with the loop at the top of the hill and then a downhill run into what became known as the fish hook section and a negatively banked last turn onto the main straight the circuit offered quite a challenge to achieve a quick lap. In 2000 the circuit changed hands for the first time with Rob Hodgkinson and Paul Phillips taking over. Soon after the change over the circuit was re-profiled with changes to the fish hook area and the final turn onto the main straight. Both of these changes improved the flow of the circuit, the fish hook area in particular allowing for a faster run onto the back straight. Under the new ownership the Wakefield Park licensing and permit system was introduced. This gave clubs a cheaper alternative to CAMS for the running of events and members could also purchase a Wakefield licence with which they could compete in events that they may not normally be able to on a level 2 licence. Now the circuit uses the AASA insurance and permit system that which is now being used by a large proportion of motor sport promoters and clubs for events around the country. The Speed off the street days that allowed people to drive their own cars on the circuit under the Wakefield licence system, encouraging speed at the right venue and not on public roads were also introduced and continue today. ) From 2001 to 2008 the circuit held a round of the V8 development series, this for many years being the only stand alone round for those cars. The pit lane garages were added at this time, once again improving the circuit’s facilities. In January 2007 the circuit was bought by the Benalla Auto Club, the owners of the Winton circuit in country Victoria. At the end of 2008 a major re-surfacing of the circuit took place and this again has led to better lap times. 2010 has seen the introduction of a lighting system at all flag points that will warn drivers of incidents on the circuit and be operated from race control. With the complex now managed by Mathew Ronke and ongoing improvements happening the circuit is still a great club sport venue. With a great cafe and complete circuit viewing from the spectator areas enjoy today’s racing. The current lap record for the circuit is held by Ben Chrithon driving an F3 open wheeler and stands at 54.563 seconds, a fairly quick time. Wakefield Park, just another great part of the Goulburn area. Current lap Record Holder Ben Crighton from New Zealand

Sports Sedans Favourites At Wakefield Park The sports Sedans are always a crowd favourite at Wakefield Park, where the sight and sound of these lightweight high powered high winged monsters is a spectacle not to be missed.
year’s Sports Sedan title has become is the closeness at the pointy end of the field, for the gap between Inwood at the top of the table and Simon Copping in fourth is only 16 points.
Championship leader coming into this round is Bathurst driver Stuart Inwood, with his AU Ford Falcon, a de-registered V8 Supercar. Inwood has accumulated 180 points to date, but just four in arrears is Geoff Whittaker in his Holden Commodore VT
Steven Shiels has entered his Chev Camaro. The Bathurst driver way back in 10th place in the championship with 78 points is still quite capable of causing an upset this weekend.
Anthony Macready third in the championship with just this and another round at Sydney Motorsport Park remaining is still in with a chance of becoming the 2012 champion in his pretty Nissan 300ZX, as he is only ten behind Whittaker. Showing just how open this
Back in 18th place with just 98 points, and seemingly not in a position to win this ) year’s championship, Chris Jackson will still be one of the favoured drivers this weekend in his Holden Calibre.
ren Saillard a former sprint car racer driving a Ford Falcon BA, and the remaining two by Macready. Not only is there excitement plus at the front of the grid, but it will be also action packed down through the field. What should be a battle of epic proportions should be between three Victorian drivers in their Under 2 litre Sports Sedans, David Runkel in his Proton Satria, Scott Manson (BMW) and Shane Howard driving his Toyota Corolla.

There will be other drivers in the field capable of podium finishes, and who are not in contention for the championship, so they may become spoilers to those that are chasing the title.
The fourth round of the NSW Production Touring Car Championship will be conducted at Wakefield Park this weekend, with the Production Touring Car Championship moving from the sprint rounds to the Endurance phase.
Round 4 NSW state Championships
Among those is Gerry Burgess, a veteran of several Bathurst 1000’s, and a long time competitor in production racing behind the wheel of a Mitsubishi Evo 7. He has the benefit of having his son Leigh, a well performed driver from Formula Fords and Production cars with him. 20th in the title chase, Rod Thorpe was thought to be co -driving with Virag, but has entered his own GTS and will be driving solo. Also in the field is a Ford XR8 V8 Ute, to be driven by the Kavich brothers, Ben who drives in the V8 Ute Series, and Michael who competes in the HQ races. August 11th & 12th 2012
