Thanks Ashlin Motorsport . Here is the program for this weekend for the last TCRC Round.

Phil Ashlin starts the meeting 85 points ahead of Viney and Nev follows behind Viney by 4 points.

Points are up for 5 races and qualy this weekend so it really could come down to the wire.

The Laurie Kelly Memorial Handicap will be a great one to watch on Sunday. We all love a handicap race to make things interesting and thanks to American V Twin Motorcycles for sponsoring the handicap race.
