The heavy rain predicted for the weekend prompted Gisborne Speedway Club to postpone its opening “mega” meeting tonight.

The 2022-23 season is now scheduled to start next Saturday night.

The club was expecting full fields in all classes for tonight's meeting, with drivers coming from all over the country.

“Sorry everyone but we have had to make the decision to postpone tonight's meeting,” club president Clyde McGrory said on social media.

“Unfortunately the track is not going to handle any more rain and with plenty more to come, the odds are against us.

“On a positive side, next Saturday we will be running the MTF Finance Gisborne Superstock Points Dash, ministock best pairs, stockcar best pairs and production saloon championships.

“It will be a meeting not to be missed.

“Stay dry and we'll see you on the eighth, with racing starting at 5pm.”
