Maiden National Hot Rod Final Win For Stewart At Aghadowey |
 |
Local man Richard Stewart, who lives almost within sight of the stadium, was the man on form at Aghadowey Oval on Saturday night, August 30th, as he took his first ever feature race win in the elite National Hot Rods division. There were trying conditions for the drivers all night on a damp and changing track, with the other final winners being Portadown’s Steven Haugh (Superstox), Lurgan’s Graham Meek (1300 Stock Cars), Coleraine’s Liam Wilson (Thunder Rods) and Portadown’s Ollie Williamson (Ninja Karts).
Recent newcomer to the formula, Ballymoney’s Davy Clarke, led the opening National Hot Rods heat away in the wet, and despite some heavy pressure from some star names late on, he was able to hold on for a well deserved win ahead of Drew McKeown and Scotsman James Mooney. Heat two saw Richard Stewart out front before flying Kells ace Derek McMillan swooped through from the star grade to take an emphatic win in his Lotus from Stewart and Glenn Bell.
The final was the race of the night, as the National Hot Rods delivered once again as they regularly do. Stewart wasted no time in building a lead out front once he had cleared early leader Clarke, but behind there was a huge battle for the places between eight or more cars at a time. Jordan Rochford broke clear of the fight to settle into second, but by this stage Stewart was well clear and he raced home to a very impressive maiden feature race win in the formula. Behind second placed Rochford, third fell to McKeown ahead of Bell and John Christie.
For the Superstox it was the final meeting of the 2024/25 NI Points Championship season, and it was the champion elect Steven Haugh who sealed the title with a heat and final double. Neil Hyndman won the opening heat, showing good pace to head home Sean Mark and Haugh, before Haugh took the second heat with a great drive after being delayed early on in a melee on the Brown Trout Bend. Mark and Hyndman filled the places.
Gerard Hartley led much of the way in the final, impressing out front ahead of Hyndman. Neil then moved ahead, but both could offer little resistance when Haugh came calling. The European Champion eased past them both to seal the Mk2 Escort Shells and Spares sponsored NI Points Championship in perfect style.

There was a straightforward opening heat win for Davy Wilson in the opening heat for the 1300 Stock Cars, the Cullybackey man heading home Graham Meek and Ty Richardson. The star men, including World Champion Curtis Greer, failed to get on terms all evening as Wilson again took the second heat to earn an upgrade for the final. Josh McKinstry and Richardson were the placemen in this one.
Richardson and Ethan Dilly squabbled over the lead in the final, before former Junior Productions champion Meek surged ahead at half distance. Richardson kept him in his sights all the way home but couldn’t land a telling blow. A delighted Meek took the honours ahead of Richardson, Wilson and McKinstry.
The Thunder Rods were a late addition to the programme, and they managed to produce some great action. Joshua McCahon was the star of the heats, winning the opener from Joshua McMullan and Liam Wilson before again grabbing the chequered flag in heat two, this time ahead of Wilson and Adam Graham.
Wilson had scored third and second in the heats, and he continued his improvement on the night by winning the final after relegating early leader, recent newcomer Sam Dougherty. Behind the impressive Wilsom, Irish Champion James Goldie powered through for second ahead of McCahon and Adam McKinney.
The opening Ninja Karts heat saw the young stars cope admirably with the damp conditions. Frankie Stirling and Eddie Fowler had spells out front before European Champion Mason Carberry from Suffolk slipped inside backmarkers to outfox Fowler and take the win on the final lap. Ollie Williamson and Fowler completed the top three. Stirling again heat two away, but this time the man to watch was Rowdy Grattan who roared through to win from Carberry and Tommy Johnston.
Paul Crooks charged ahead impressively in the final before he lost out to Evan Beattie. Coming with a late charge though was Wiliamson, the Portadown driver punching the air with delight as he took the chequered flag after a great drive to the front. Carberry and Grattan took the podium slots after a great evening from the youngsters.
