Get those engines warming up derby drivers, because the SunLive Baypark Speedway Demolition Derby is shifting back into gear.

The wet weather may have put a damper on last Saturday but the forecast for tomorrow is looking fine, says event promoter Bernie Gillon, who says it was disappointing the rain got in the way last weekend.

'But the good thing is the forecast for this Saturday is really, really fine weather. We've also had another four entries come in for the derby. So fingers crossed we might even get up to 60 cars.”

Bernie understands some keen race-goers arrived at ASB Baypark last weekend to find the event wasn't going ahead, but says they turned to every medium possible to let people know.

'We put something on our website, SunLive, Facebook, and the speedway chat site. I did everything I possibly could to let people know.”

SunMedia finance manager Melanie Stone is looking forward to racing tomorrow night alongside newly-announced SunLive Demo Derby Driver Doug Britton.

That's right, SunLive has rekindled the engine of 2015 demolition man David Tauranga's Nissan Cefiro to allow for two SunLive drivers on the track.

'I'm feeling a little nervous,” says Doug. 'But I'm trying not to think about it too much.”

He's more focused on trying to find the right Batman costume for the race with his ‘Robin' Melanie.

The SunLive Baypark Speedway Demolition Derby is on April 16 at ASB Baypark. Gates open 5pm, racing starts 6.30pm.

Tickets are available from www.bayparkspeedway.co.nz, at ASB Baypark and at the gate. Entry forms for the derby are available online at www.bayparkspeedway.co.nz, at Flamecrusher in Gate Pa, or at the merchandise hub at ASB Baypark.
