KELLERBERRIN OVAL SPEEDWAY
Speedway racing events were held at some point at the Kellerberrin oval, They may have been organised and promoted by the Claremont Speedway Pty Ltd group, The days program was quite full with Solos, Sidecars, Tq's, Midgets Sedan Cars and Supermodifieds. The actual race track was just a gravel roadway that surounded the football field, this is were the spectator cars parked during the footy games, around the outside of that was a sleeper wall, with the trotting track on the outside of that.

Graeme Carger recalls: as a young fella i remember me and my mates would watch the days racing at the oval sitting up on top of the diving platform at the local swimming pool

KELLERBERRIN SPEEDWAY PLANNING
As a result of these race meeting's at town oval, a lot of interest was raised around the town, to build a purpose built speedway track.
======================================================================================
Graeme Carger recalls: as a young Keller boy i had enjoyed the speedway racing as a spectotor at the oval, so when the group started fundraising to build Kellerberrins new speedway, i was old enough to help, I was a part of a group that went out hay carting for local farmers, getting paid $300 a day with all moneys going to the building of the new speedway.
