2013 - #16 - Tullyroan Oval - 5/5/13
It’s hard to believe that this time last year Nuttscorner Oval had closed and Tullyroan Oval was much anticipated, but no one really knew how it would all pan out.
A year ago I was sceptical about the extra travel, not sure how the fields of cars would go on a bigger track, not sure if there would be a gain or loss of drivers in the move. I was looking forward to seeing F2’s, Stock Rods and Saloons at my regular haunt and was looking forward to seeing the 2 Litres around Aghadowey.

2013 - #15 – Ballymena Raceway – 3/5/13
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, when I look down the Ballymena fixture list to try and decide which meetings I’m going to do, the stand out meetings for me are the ones with National Hot Rods and F2’s and the real stand out meetings are the nights both classes are on, really at that point I’m fine with just seeing 6 races anything above that is a bonus. It’s worth also mentioning that this is now something of a unique event to Ballymena, no one else over here can run Nationals and F2’s on the same night.

2013 - #14 – Lochgelly (HRP) – 28/4/13
Day 2 of the Lochgelly weekend, and the first stop was the café for a bite to eat. It’s been noted that I’ve sometimes been spending more time eating at meetings than taking photos, so since it’s part of the experience, I’ll mention that the Bacon and Sausage bap is a good shout at a Lochgelly.

2013 - #13 – Lochgelly (HRP) – 27/4/13
First “overseas” trip of the season this year, and as per the last few years, it was off to Scotland. As soon as I heard the National Hot Rod European was being run at Lochgelly I was on looking at sailings and trying to get myself an infield spot, there is a good chance I even had my accommodation booked the same day as it was announced. The trip then spiralled a little and went from me going on my own in the car, to myself, Darren Black, Emma Hammond and Jonny Teggart going, not in the car, but in a Woolsey van with Jake’s Ninja Kart on board, and so, not for the first time I’ve been on a roadtrip to Scotland with a single seater on board.
It’s hard to beat a good roadtrip, and this one was a good one.

2013 - #12 – Ballymena Raceway – 26/4/13
The first meeting of three over the weekend. This meeting gave me quite a dilemma, because as much as I wanted to support the charity race and be there to take a few photos, I had 101 things to get done ahead of going to Scotland. To try and be diplomatic about the class line up, I’ll just say that it would have been an easier sell with the F2’s or Nationals on the bill.

2013 - #11 - Tullyroan Oval - 21/4/13 - Shamwreck 2013
One of the blue chip meetings of the season, and as ever Shamwreck never fails to disappoint. The pits were packed breaking the 100 car marker and the sun eventually shown.

2013 - #10 – Ballymena Raceway – 19/4/13
It’s starting to feel more like Stock car season again when Friday night involves playing football to 7 o’clock then rushing up the road to take in what is left of that night’s meeting at Ballymena.

2013 - #9 - Tullyroan Oval - 14/4/13
The second meeting for the Superstox, a decent field of Nationals and a even better field of ProStocks were in action at Tullyroan on a night which somehow stayed reasonably dry yet you never felt the rain was far away.

2013 - #8 – Tullyroan Oval – 6/4/13
If the opening meeting at Tullyroan Oval was branded “The Dawn of a New Era”, then this must surely be a further Era we have now stepped into. A new start time, two new classes and the first outing for the Stock Rods as an official Tullyroan Oval class, really such a gamble could have produced a meeting that was a complete flop or a huge success, and it was the latter.

2013 - #7 – Tullyroan Oval – 1/4/13
The third and final meeting of a busy Easter weekend for me and it was a bit of a mixed bag, the highs being that there was a great turnout of cars in every class and the infield has been changed, the low being the temperature and the wind, if there wasn’t a minus chill factor on the wind then it must have been damn close to it.
