Jack McAuley goes back-to-back in Hedland Speedway’s Pippingarra Legends

The Port Hedland Speedway hosted the Pippingarra Legends night on Saturday as riders from across the Pilbara raced for glory and Karratha’s Jack McAuley went back-to-back in the night’s feature race. McAuley finished first ahead of Clint Marks and Daniel Flavel in the memorial all-in race, having also won the event in 2020. McAuley backed up his performance in the productions competition to beat out Daniel Flavel and Kurt Hagan and walk away with two trophies. In the street stocks Curtis Harris was crowned champion, leaving Jim Dixon and Clint Marks to grab second and third place. Hunter Downs was first past the post in the juniors division ahead of Jimahli Nunn Mohammed-Dom and Zakiya Costa. The night was not short of surprises as one couple celebrated a burnout gender reveal, in what was a first for the Hedland Speedway Club. Kids had a chance to join in the action with a bike race and Cab City Pizza and Voices BBQ catered the event.
