2012 AUSTRALIAN SPEEDCAR CHAMPIONSHIP

The 2012 Australian Speedcar Championship is shaping up as one of the most closely contested titles for some years.  Two Kiwis will take on Australia’s best and a string of young guns keen to take the spoils when they assemble in Maryborough to do battle on 16/17 March. New Zealand will be represented by their reigning national champion Michael Pickens and Michael Kendall who has taken out that championship on five occasions.  Pickens will again team up with the Polar Ice team and owner Jack Berry while Kendall will drive a recently built car owned by fellow Kiwi Dwayne Neilsen.  Pickens has some unfinished business after dropping from first to third in the last lap of last year’s title when a tyre popped.
