Concept
The Winter Sprintcar Series is aimed at giving sprintcar drivers and teams the opportunity to improve their speedway skills.
Series Promoter, Peter Harvey, recognised the sport he loved was stagnating in Western Australia. The Winter Sprintcar Series is his brainchild and with it he hopes to improve the standard of all Sprintcar Racing in Western Australia.
The series incorporates Driver Education sessions for all drivers and crews. These sessions take a holistic approach to speedway education, with guest speakers running hands-on seminars on a range of topics.

Competitors
The Winter Sprintcar Series is open to any Sprintcar competitor that holds a Speedway Australia license plus a log book from your affiliated club.
This series does not have a control tyre.
At the conclusion of the series, there will be a prize pool to be divided amongst top placing competitors from across the series.
These events are promoted for the benefit of all sprintcar competitors in Western Australia. Winter Sprintcar Series is providing the opportunity for drivers to improve their skills and knowledge of racing.
A series of this type is a new concept within the Western Australia Sprintcar community and understandably many people will have questions.
If you require anymore information regarding the series, please contact the series promoter. The Winter Sprintcar Series Facebook page, Website and Promoter are the only official sources for information regarding the series.
