After a rather hectic race Schedule during the month of January,
Nathan Macdonald made the most of his time away from work to hit
the Speedway tracks. A week after the Fraser Coast Series
at Maryborough, Nathan decided to trek up the highway to Gympie
for the January 9th meeting to try his hand at the rather
unusual circuit in readiness for the 30/30 Modified Production

After 18 months of blood sweat and tears, the new car is mobile
and by all reports is looking great. Nathan was able to
make it Brisbane Speedway on Saturday night for a few practice
runs before the first official race meeting at Charlton on the

After a very successful run at the dyno through the week,
Macdonald was glad
he put the effort in to get to Brisbane after finding some
gremlins already. |
