BIG SEASON AHEAD FOR WA F500s - posted 9 July, 2009
Story by WAF500 Inc
The season ahead for Formula 500 racing in West Australia is shaping up to be the best yet with a record number of drivers registered, a revamped committee and top class race meetings planned for 2009/2010.
Dave Hedington is now officially the president of WA F500 Inc taking over from Rod Bottrell, Vice President again this year will be the well known racer “Wild” Bill Richards and the 2nd Vice President is another WA racer #91 Brad Warwick. Life member Bryan Mullings will once again fill the important job of treasurer and the Secretary position has been taken on by new member Deb Smith. Liaison officer and another new member is Cate Bott who has already put a lot of time into acquiring the upcoming West Coast Series dates and the WA State Title Venue. The publicity officers job has been grabbed with two hands by Shane Andersson who is looking forward to keeping the nation updated on everything Formula 500 in WA.
Danny Reilly will be the man with the tough job of Chief Steward for all WA F500 inc meetings this season. He will be backed up by life member and long-time committee member, Ellen Checkley who has the task of Judge Timekeeper. The committee are looking for expressions of interest in regard to an assistant timekeeper to help with what at times can be a very difficult job. Another long time member Colin Schipp will be the Pit Marshall again and Brett Jannsen has put his hand up to be our new Machine Examiner. WAF500 Inc would firstly like to welcome the new committee members onboard and also thank prior committee members for all their help. We have what should prove to be a good balance of youth and experience to make this season explode in a big way.
Plans are underway to rebuild our website f500wa.com.au. Due to unforeseen circumstances the website has lapsed but it will be back better than ever with all up to date news and results plus WA driver profiles, pics and videos. Anyone interested in advertising on the site please call Dave Hedington 0417900858, Brad Warwick 0400240835 or Shane Andersson 0400747643. This will help get the site up and going even sooner.
