An entertaining Saturday night at Aghadowey Oval saw some exciting racing as Garvagh’s William McFaul was crowned King of Aghadowey in the 1600 Rookie Bangers. The William Cooke Memorial Trophy for Stock Rods fell the way of Enniskillen’s Stevie McNiece after a great performance, whilst The Young Trophy for Junior Productions was won by Casey Cherry after a stirring drive around the outside.
The other feature races of the evening went the way of Bleary’s Drew McKeown in the 2.0 Hot Rods and Portadown’s Steven Haugh in the Superstox.

An excellent entry of twenty 1600 Rookie Bangers meant the track was more than busy all evening, with David Gurney leading heat one before Josh Goligher nudged him wide towards a stricken car late on to snatch the victory. Heat two was equally as hectic, with William McFaul this time overhauling early leader Aaron McGraw to take the win over Steven Bolton and Irish Champion John Goligher.
The tension was building as the King of Aghadowey final came to grid, with McFaul executing the perfect start to avoid the onslaught from behind. William continued to pull clear to land a great victory over Josh Goligher and John Goligher to end a superb evening from the formula.

Rab Preston and Sam Wilson had spells out front in the opening Stock Rods qualifier, before National Champion Jonny Cardwell pulled off a great outside move to take the win over NI Open Champion Mark Foster and Stevie McNiece. Heat two saw a dominant win from Irish Champion Mark Crawford, as he led home Darragh O’Shea and McNeice.
Two third places for McNiece gained him pole position for the William Cooke Memorial Trophy final with Crawford alongside. Stevie quickly settled into the premier position, and despite the best efforts of Cardwell in second he was able to hold his advantage all the way home. As McNiece took the victory by ten car lengths, Cardwell, Crawford, Sam McNeice and Foster filled out the places.

Novice grader Austin Grattan was the one to watch in the opening heat of the Junior Productions, holding on out front despite the best efforts of Maia Thompson from behind. As Grattan took the win over Thompson, Ryan Berry and Noah Teggart were next home. Heat two again saw Grattan out front early on, but this time it was Scottish lady racer Thompson who found a way past to take the win. Grattan held on for second ahead of an impressive drive from British Champion Casey Cherry from the rear of the grid.
Grattan and Thompson shared the front row the final, racing for The Young Trophy which has been presented by the Young and Hosie families at Aghadowey for many years now. Ryan Berry burst through from the second row to hit the front but soon had a whole posse snapping at his heels. Cherry had been shuffled down the pack early on, but he came back with a vengeance to mount a challenge for the lead on the outside line. As he swept ahead and on to a tremendous win, Irish Champion Leyton Hughes took second ahead of Charlie Johnston. Grattan and Thompson claimed the white and yellow grade awards respectively, whilst Teggart claimed the Merit Award for his fine efforts all evening.

Dungannon teenager Jake Devlin was the first to show in the first heat for the 2.0 Hot Rods, holding off the advances of veteran campaigner Colin McFarland initially. Local ace Aaron Stewart then muscled in on the action up front, trying the outside late on in an effort to claim the win. Devlin held on though for a fine victory, with James McKinney snatching second from Stewart at the line. Heat two followed a similar pattern, and this time Devlin had a much easier path to his second victory of the night, holding off McFarland and Chris Hamill at the flag.
There was an early caution period in the final for a stranded Rob Barnett on the Brown Trout Bend, and that brought the pack onto the tail of the leading Devlin. A hectic restart triggered a turn four clash, and with McFarland stranded the yellow flags came out once again. British and Irish Champion Drew McKeown went alongside Devlin at the front for the Nascar style two-wide resumption, and he quickly powered ahead to take the flag. Drew survived a post race Stewards Enquiry to hold on to what was a fine win, with Jordan Rochford and McKinney inheriting the podium slots after World Champ Adam Heatrick was docked from second to fourth for contact.

Regular raceway photographer Brian Lammey swapped his camera for his helmet to claim a superb win in the opening Superstox heat, holding off Gerard Hartley and Steven Haugh at the flag. Before the meeting new National Champion Kyle Beattie was presented to the crowd after his recent win in England, and he recorded his best finish of the night in heat two as he claimed third spot behind winner Jamie McCann and Haugh.
Hartley demoted early leader Jonathan Crawford in the final, but with four laps to go he had no answer to the pace of the flying NI Points Champion Haugh. As Steven took the flag and the silverware, McCann claimed second from World Champion Jordan Robinson, Beattie and Hartley.

Jordan Rochford’s rich streak of form continued at Tullyroan Oval on Saturday night (April 26th), the Portadown 2.0 Hot Rod driver taking another final victory in the opening round of the Hoosier Challenge Series. A dramatic night in the Junior Productions saw Antrim’s Leyton Hughes successfully defend his Golden Helmet title in style, whilst a big grid of 1300 Stock Cars saw Ballyclare’s Michael Logan race through for victory.
The Ninja Karts saw almost 30 drivers racing and there was a heat and final double for Maghera’s Jordan Davis, whilst the Thunder Rods saw Rasharkin’s Jason Darragh take an excellent feature race win.

The two graded heats in the 2.0 Hot Rods were closely fought, with Ally Neill taking a hectic opener from Shane McMillan and Callum Doak. Neill repeated the feat in heat two, rounding McMillan for a fine win with form man Jordan Rochford in third.
The final, the opening round of the Hoosier Challenge Series saw the grid formed on points from the heats. Neill hit the front, but Rochford pulled off a sublime outside line pass to take the lead and the win. Jordan also received a new tyre courtesy of Hoosier Tyres UK, with Andy Best getting the better of the places scrap to take second.

Noah Teggart got the better of a packed field of Junior Productions in a dramatic opening heat for the young stars. There was a rollover for Jake Barnett as Teggart took the flag over Ryan Berry and Andrew Hawe. Having tasted success for the first time, Teggart repeated the feat in heat two which was marred by a big back straight crash. Hawe this time took second over Austin Grattan as the lower graders dominated.
The Golden Helmet final was lined up in points order from the heats, with Teggart setting the early pace. An oil spillage from the previous race made conditions challenging, but Leyton Hughes was showing experience way beyond his years to use the wide line around the oil to catapult himself to the lead. Leyton raced clear to successfully defend his title and take the superb trophy, presented annually by the McKeown family, back home to his Antrim base. Hawe and Teggart impressed greatly in second and third ahead of Berry and Jack Morrison.

A domestic record of eighteen 1300 Stock Cars came to grid for their opening heat, including a debut for former race starter Curtis McConkey. The racing was frantic to say the least, with cautions for a loose wheel on turn four and then a track blockage on the back straight. Star man Curtis Greer burst through the chaos to take the win over Gary Freeburn and Jon McQuillan. Heat two saw debutant Neville Richardson battle with Davy Clarke for the lead, with Richardson taking a well deserved win over Clarke and NI Points Champion Matthew Milliken who had made a sterling drive from the back.
The opening laps of the final were action packed to say the least, and on lap four it was Michael Logan who raced into the lead. Having not figured in the heats, Logan put his trusty Toyota Starlet to great use to extend his advantage and take the chequered flag and the silverware. McQuillan and Graham Meek filled the podium slots after a great battle, ahead of Milliken and Irish Champion Bobbie Johnston.

Steven Bolton was the man to watch in the opening Thunder Rods heat, the former Unlimited Bangers World Champion putting his borrowed car to good use to take the win ahead of a great battle which saw Jason Darragh take second from Gareth McCrory. Brandon Kernohan led the second heat away, but he lost out to Tyler McMaster who took the victory ahead of Darragh and Mark McLaughlin.
McCrory quickly hit the front in the final, holding resolutely to the inside line and inviting his challengers to make the pass on the outside. Approaching mid distance Darragh took the bull by the horns, hit the outside and clawed his way past to record a superb victory. Andrew McLean came through for second ahead of Joe Largey, Bolton and McLaughlin.

A host of English visitors in the Ninja Karts boosted the grid to almost 30 karts, with the busy raceway leading to numerous caution periods. Somerset’s Charlie Major blasted through to win the opening heat in dramatic fashion after Jaxon York and Jack Murphy found the fence on the run to the flag. George Cooper took second, with Murphy claiming third as he slid down the wall! Jordan Davis took the win in heat two, just holding off an assault from England’s Tyler Ward. Jaxon York sneaked second on the line ahead of Ward and Mason Carberry.
The final saw the flying Davis take his second win of the night, this time powering home ahead of Cole York, Murphy, Ollie Williamson and Carberry to complete a superb night for the 6-11 year old stars of the future.

An outstanding Easter Monday of racing at Aghadowey Oval saw Randalstown’s Sam McNeice win the feature race of the afternoon, The Alan Connolly Memorial Trophy for Stock Rods. In the National Hot Rods formula, Galgorm ace Shane Murray reeled off a faultless hat-trick of wins to take the spoils in World Series NI Round 12, whilst Suffolk’s Mason Carberry successfully defended the King of Aghadowey title from a packed field of Ninja Karts. The other feature races fell to Portadown’s Nigel Jackson in the Lightning Rods and Glenavy’s Joe Largey in the Thunder Rods.

A healthy field of Stock Rods, including Scottish and Republic of Ireland visitors, took to the grid to contest the Alan Connolly Memorial Trophy, held annually on Easter Monday in memory of the champion driver from Ballymoney. Jonny Cardwell relieved early leader Adam Sloan of the lead in the opening heat, Jonny powering home to the win ahead of Sloan and Dan Shannon. The reversed grid heat two saw European Champion Robbie Armit take a flag to flag win ahead of Irish Champion Mark Crawford and Darragh O’Shea.
The final paired Shannon and Scotsman Dean McGill on the front row, with Dan taking up the running until Cardwell found a gap inside him into the Brown Trout Bend to hit the front. Many eyes were now on Sam McNeice as he made great strides towards the front, nipping past McGill to go second before pulling the same move on Cardwell to grab the lead. Sam romped home to a great success, with Cardwell and Crawford completing the line up after a competitive afternoon of racing.

Ahoghill’s Philip McCloy was the first to show in the opening National Hot Rods heat, before Shane Murray blasted ahead in his Ginetta. Murray took the win ahead of Derek McMillan and Jordan McCann, after Adam Maxwell was dropped from second to fourth by the Stewards for contact. Murray repeated the feat in heat two, this time mastering the changeable track conditions to win ahead of Simon Kennedy and Ian Riordan.
Kennedy set the pace early in the final on what was now a dry track, but Murray was again to be the master as he swooped past on the high outside line to take the lead and complete a faultless hat-trick for the afternoon. Kennedy, Scotsman James Mooney and McCann completed the major places.

A huge field of 35 Ninja Karts from right across the British Isles arrived to chase the King of Aghadowey title. Norfolk’s Elliott Lake won the opening heat for England, ahead of Eddie Fowler and defending Champion Mason Carberry. Heat two again saw Lake take the win as he impressed for a second time, with Jordan Davis and Rowdy Grattan next home. The final qualifier fell to another Norfolk driver, George Cooper from Ralph Payne and Jaxon York in an all-England top three.
The final was a superb race with all 35 karts taking the green flag this time. Cooper and York had a great battle out front, before Carberry surged past to the lead to take the win and successfully defend his crown. English drivers again dominated proceedings with Cooper in second followed by Finley Weston, Tyler Ward and York.

The Lightning Rods were contesting the final meeting of the 2024/25 NI Points Championship campaign, with Nigel Jackson doing his chances a power of good with the win in heat one over Stuart Agnew and Ross Houston. Mark Corry then took a controlled win in heat two ahead of Feargal McNally and Agnew, to leave the points title on a knife edge going into the final.
Corry led early on but it was Jackson who surged through to take the win in some style and with it the NI Points title, with Houston, Corry and Conor Doherty the placemen in the feature race.

The all action Thunder Rods completed the programme, with Brandon Kernohan hitting the front in heat one before he was removed for trailing bodywork. That left Mark McLaughlin out front until a superb outside pass by Adam McKinney saw him pip Mark to the win on the final lap. Heat two was a very ill-tempered affair, but this time McLaughlin held on all the way home to take the victory over James Goldie and Joshua McMullan.
The final was another scrappy but entertaining race, with Kernohan and then James Steele setting the pace. McLaughlin squeezed past Steele to the lead but in doing so caught the eye of the Stewards, and when he took the flag he was demoted two places to third in the final analysis. That handed victory to former Stock Rods star Joe Largey ahead of Steele.

An epic Easter Saturday night at Tullyroan Oval saw some fantastic racing from all five formulas on show. Armagh’s Mark Foster took the major win of the night, the Stock Rods Northern Ireland Open, whilst Donaghcloney’s Simon Kennedy secured a heat and final double in the latest National Hot Rods World Series Round.
Portadown’s Jordan Rochford had a dominant win in the 2.0 Hot Rods Irish Masters, with the other feature race wins falling to Lurgan’s Graham Meek (1300 Stock Cars) and Loughgall’s Casey Cherry (Junior Productions).

A huge field of Stock Rods, including quite a number of visitors, assembled for the Northern Ireland Open. The action was frantic amongst the big pack all evening with Stevie McNiece getting the better of Tipperary’s Paddy O’Dwyer to win the opening heat after a great outside run, with European Champion Robbie Armit from Scotland in third. Heat two saw defending champion Sam McNeice of Randalstown take a resounding victory by some distance over Callum Magill and National Champion Jonny Cardwell.
The final paired Siobhan Martin and Mark Foster on the front row from points scored in the heats, and after a few laps side by side it was Foster who broke clear into the lead. He wouldn’t be challenged all the way home to the title, with Martin and Cardwell completing the top three after a great night’s action.

Simon Kennedy quickly hit the front in the opening National Hot Rods heat, just holding off a late charge from Scotsman James Mooney to take the win with Cork’s Ian Riordan in third. Heat two was run in slippery, drizzly conditions and this time Gary Woolsey got the better of early leader Kennedy to take the win over Dean McCrory and Jordan McCann.
Kennedy led the way in the 35 lap feature event, building a significant lead until a caution was called with Jeff Riordan stranded on turn two. The double file restart saw his challengers pull right alongside and behind Simon, but he knuckled down with some great speed to extend his lead once again. Despite Ian Riordan challenging hard over the final laps, Simon held on to complete a fantastic heat and final double, with Woolsey in third.

Shane McMillan was the frontrunner in the opening 2.0 Hot Rods heat, and he just fended off a late charge from British and Irish Champion Drew McKeown to take the win. There was a great battle early on in heat two between World Champion Adam Heatrick and Aaron Stewart, with Adam getting the win in the end ahead of Andy Best and Jordan Rochford.
In the Irish Masters final there was no stopping Rochford, as he quickly pulled clear of the chasing pack to take a dominant win. McKeown came through for second place ahead of an impressive Ally Neill and Heatrick.

Alexander McCreadie and then Graham Meek had spells ahead in the first 1300 Stock Cars heat, but Jonny Patterson timed a perfect last bend hit on Meek to race through to take a fantastic win. Heat two was action packed once again, with Matthew Milliken this time the winner over Fionn Donnelly and Meek.
The early exchanges in the final were superb to watch, with Meek emerging with the lead. The former Junior Productions Irish Champion reeled off the laps and took the win in some style from Craig Bodenham and Patterson.

Irish Champion Leyton Hughes got the better of a battle between Ryan Carroll and Ryan Berry to snatch the opening heat win in the Junior Productions in opportunistic fashion. In heat two there was a first ever victory for young Austin Grattan, as he raced home to the flag ahead of Noah Teggart and Charlie Johnston.
The feature race final was littered with caution periods, with Carroll out front until he was bundled wide by Grattan. Hughes then challenged for the lead before coming unstuck on the treacherous outside line, which opened the door for British Champion Casey Cherry to take the win after a great drive. Hughes and Andrew Russell completed the top three.

County Cork driver Ian Riordan had his Lotus Exige in sparkling form at Tullyroan Oval on Saturday evening, grabbing the spoils in World Series NI Round 10 for National Hot Rods. Dublin’s Stevo McGrath took the honours in the Unlimited National Bangers King of Krash, whilst the other three finals all fell to Portadown drivers – Nigel Jackson (Lightning Rods), Steven Haugh (Superstox) and young Ollie Williamson (Ninja Karts).

Thomas Dilly made great use of his yellow grading and his joker round (giving him 4 new tyres) to take the opening National Hot Rod win of the night ahead of Scotsman James Mooney and Dean McCrory. Heat two saw a fiery and very scary engine blow up early on for Mark Heatrick, which necessitated a caution period to clean up the mess. Dilly was once again on fine form, and he pulled away from the chasing pack to take his second win of the evening. The flying Ian Riordan inherited second spot ahead of John Christie after a lightning fast race from the rear of the field.
Dilly again held the premier spot for much of the final, until he unfortunately found the wall on the Annaghmore Bend. That gifted top spot to Mooney, but he could offer little resistance to the flying Ian Riordan, the Lotus pilot from County Cork blasting around the outside to take a sublime victory over Christie and Mooney.

A lower than anticipated entry of Unlimited National Bangers still produced some very watchable racing, with Gordy McKee the leader in the main King of Krash event until he was baulked by the backmarking Kieran McIvor. That opened the door for Stevo McGrath to take the win over McKee and Leonard Dunn.
The first Allcomers event saw McKee take the win this time ahead of McGrath and Dunn, before McIvor led the second Allcomers until McKee swooped past to take another win. The Destruction Derby completed the night, with McIvor and Dunn fighting it out. After trading several great blows it was Dunn who took the win as last car moving, with McIvor having to make do with the Entertainer of the Meeting tag.

Neil Hyndman quickly hit the front in the opening Superstox heat, but he had no answer to the pace of the flying World Champion, Jordan Robinson. Jordan took the win over Paddy Murphy and Ethan Martin. Hyndman once again took the lead in heat two, this time holding the top spot all the way home for victory ahead of Murphy and Steven Haugh.
The star graders traded blows early in the final which was a joy to watch, as Hyndman and then Murphy held sway out front. But Haugh was the man this time, scything through to the lead and the win in some style ahead of Jamie McCann and Kyle Beattie.

It was pleasing to see such a good grid of Lightning Rods on hand, with Jake Morgan excelling in the opening heat to win ahead of Nigel Jackson and Feargal McNally. Jake then repeated the feat in heat two in his fluorescent orange BMW, racing home once again with Conor Doherty and Dermot Tynan the placemen this time around.
An upgrade for the final did little to thwart Morgan’s progress in the final, but just as he challenged for the lead he found the turn one wall and his race was done. That opened the door for stalwart Nigel Jackson to take the victory and the silverware over Ross Houston and McNally.

A big grid of young Ninja Kart racers as always produced some fine racing, with Frankie Stirling leading the opener until Matthew McNeill went motoring past to take it up. Matthew just left the door open in the final bend, and that allowed Rowdy Grattan to snatch the win superbly over William Brown. There was a first ever win in heat two for Jordan Davis after a splendid drive, as he just held off Brown on the run to the flag to grab a well deserved first trophy in his racing career.
Stirling impressed in the final as he raced into the lead, but he was eventually caught by the pack before a mid race caution period bunched them all up for the race to the chequered flag. Ollie Williamson burst through to the lead, and he took the trophy in fine style from Cahan Bradley, with the impressive Brown next home ahead Grattan.
