1973 - SYDNEY SHOWGROUND SPEEDWAY. West Australia v New South Wales Sole Match. Sidecars. Speedcars & Late Model Production Car's. 6th October 1973.The West Australian vs New South Wales solo match set down for tonight has been washed out just prior to the commencement of racing here at the Showground.
Billy Sanders, had been hurriedly recruited by Showground Promoter Owen Bateman to captain the under-powered home team, only hours after his arrival home from the United Kingdom earlier in the week.
The match will not be re-scheduled so each side has been awarded a point each for the abandoned match.
