SPEEDCAFE.COM REPORTED
Upcoming events at the new Eastern Creek Speedway have been cancelled due to ongoing construction work. The Sydney venue only opened a fortnight ago, at its third attempt, but is unlikely to see racing again until late next month.
A statement issued by the track advised, it is with sadness we advise that all events at Eastern Creek Speedway are cancelled for the immediate future, whilst the venue is completed. To date we have been proceeding with scheduled events, however it has become increasingly difficult to prepare for event days and we have now been limited with access to the venue, infield and track during the week. At this stage, we are hoping to recommence with our planned calander from the 23rd and 24th of April for the New South Wales Sprintcar title. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and hope you can understand the safety and preperation required for an event is our paramount concern.
Any tickets pre-purchased for this weekend's event will be refunded.
The track was supposed to open in January before that was postponed due to construction delays arising from a wave of COVID-19 in New South Wales.
And the next date of February 26 was missed due to wet weather. A grand opening finally took place on Saturday the 12th of March when. Jamie Veal made history as first ever 410 Sprintcar feature winner at Eastern Creek Speedway in a shortened a main.
As the name suggests, it is a neighboring venue of the circuit formerly known as Eastern Creek International Raceway and now as Sydney Motorsport Park, as well as Sydney Dragway.
It is the replacement for Sydney Speedway, also known as Parramatta City Raceway, which was compulsorily acquired as part of a major public transport project and closed in 2020.

After so many delays this meeting was going to be masive. Big numbers of Fans and Competitors were expected. at last the speedway deprived fans of Sydney were in for a edge of the seat race.meeting, and what about some revenue for the owners. not to much to ask for surely.
But then came the mid week down pours and it impacted a great deal on Sydney and the new speedway.
But the track crew never gave up on providing a track worthy of these state of the art race machines.
As the preperation continued the main man behind the lens kept the public informed with his pics and reports.
