The first heat will take place at Bunbury on Saturday 7 May before heading to Pinjarra on Monday 9 May for heat two. The drivers will then head up the hill to Northam on Thursday 19 May for heat three before the series will be decided at Gloucester Park on Tuesday 24 May.
After the completion of series two we saw Stuart McDonald take the lead from Series One winner Jocelyn Young. Kristy Sheehy has had another consistent season with finishing second in both series, leaving her in hot pursuit of McDonald. Once again we thank Garrard’s for their generous sponsorship, making this series possible. The winner of each heat in series three will receive a $250 voucher to Garrard’s and the series three winner will receive a $500 voucher and trophy.
All the Drivers now have their eyes on the main prize which will see the overall winner from 2015/16 go to NSW to represent WA in the NSW Rising Stars Series and be named the Garrard’s Junior Concession Driver Challenge Champion for this season.
