Spedeworth / Incarace would like to thank everyone for making the 2016 Unlimited National Bangers World Championship a huge success.
The weather on Saturday tried to dampen our spirits at times but the determination of everyone involved and the skill of the drivers showed how fantastic short oval racing can be and fortunately the evening allowed for superb racing action.
We would like to thank all of the sponsors who supported the 2016 World Championship and hope they enjoyed the experience with us, namely MTM Plant Hire, The Kitchen, Bathroom and Bedroom Centre, Goldstar Transport, Whip St Motors, Lynch Plant Hire and Sackers Recycling.
Thank you to all you Race Fans who came to support your favourite drivers. from the advanced ticket sales calls to the smiling faces that greeted us at the turnstiles Saturday Afternoon, the amount of Race Fans who travel from far and wide to visit our Foxhall Heath Stadium, Ipswich your commitment to our sport is fantastic to see and we would like to thank each and every one of you for filling the stadium with happy faces and joining in the fun as the evening flew by and we can’t wait to see everyone again in the near future.

Over 230 drivers raced at this year’s meeting and if you had time to walk around the pits it truly is a sight to see with so many different amazing amounts of car preparation and drivers all looking forward to the prospect of lifting a trophy. Just like the Race Fans we appreciate that some drivers travel long distances to join us and whether you travelled from overseas or five minutes down the road, we cannot thank you enough for putting on a superb show over all the races and you all proved that come rain or shine that short oval motor racing is one of the best sports in the world!

Thank you to all the race officials, presenters, catering staff, security, trophy girls + Timmy The Tyre, turnstile and car parking staff as well as the Medical Teams and Business Clean who keep the stadium looking sparkling with litter picking and toilet cleaning for all your hard work in making the evening run so smoothly and produce such an excellent show on our behalf.
