2021 - PERTH MOTORPLEX KRIKKE BOYS SHOOTOUT 6th February 2021
For the first time in the history of the race the Krikke Boys management have taken the Boys race out of Bunbury and taken it to the Perth Motorplex, The reason being the ban on sprintcar racing at the Bunbury Track that Speedway Australia had put in place, The Boys race management had no option but to shift the race.
In a cruel twist of fate the Bunbury Car Club who never gave up on running sprintcars took there case back to speedway australia, arguing the The West Australian Speedway Commission who are the sole body for track inspections in West Australia had infact issued a work order on Bunbury, to replace around 60 concrete fence pannels add two extra catch fence uprights between the existing, as well as replace some of the debris mesh, at a cost of about $50,000.
Speedway Australian however still maintained that there work order would not be reviewed and the complete replacement of the fence at a cost of around $800,000 would remain.
The Bunbury Club not to be phased with this, set about complying with the Commissions order in replacing al the suspect concrete panels and errecting the additional fence uprights, as well as the debris mesh, This work was completed in time for the boys race, but it was too late, the aggreement had been ratified by all concerned, the race would be held at the Perth Motorplex.
As it would turn out for Bunbury, Speedway Australia would completely backflip after one of there track inspections a couple of day prior to the original Boys race date and lift the ban on sprintcars.
Postponed to the 13th of March 2021 due to Covid restrictions
