MAN OF THE MIDLANDS FINALE - Added 30/10/24



The Man of the Midlands Series comes to a close on Sunday as the Back to Basic Bangers battle it out in the Finale at Hednesford Hills Raceway. Sponsored by our good friends at Gamble Motorsport, we look forward to this 50+ car entry taking to the 1/4 mile oval!

Drivers have races across four qualifying events over the year, with more points scored meaning a place higher up the grid for the big race on Sunday. #95 Zak Freeth leads with 98 points - just ahead of #992 Brad Tout on 94. #129 Dale Richardson and #251 Buster Griffiths are going into the Finale joint third with 90 points each.

Sunday’s event sees one last chance points race, where the top 10 drivers will score the last available points to push themselves higher up the grid for the main race.

The second race of the day will be the 2024 Man of the Midlands Finale: where the highest points scorers will start at the front of the grid to give themselves the best chance to take the glory! Strap yourself in and standby: the pyro, the close racing, the Man of the Midlands 2024…

The third race of the day is an All Comers, before the fourth and final Back to Basic Banger event of the day: the Brian Portsmouth Trophy Final into DD. This is the inaugural running of the Trophy for the Back to Basic Bangers; in memory of our much-missed Scrutineer who spent so many years involved in the racing at Hednesford Hills. He - and his one liners - were part of the furniture for so long. We then move on to the Destruction Derby - where these MOT failures will be given one last shot at glory, with the last car standing winning the final event of the day!
