DAVE NEWCOMBE BACK IN THE SEAT FOR PRO STOCK NATIONALS
After 14 years away from the driverโs seat, Dave Newcombe is set to make his return to Pro Stock competition at the Pro Stock Nationals at Willowbank Raceway on September 11 and 12.
Newcombe is no stranger to the category, having spent decades competing at the highest level of Australian Pro Stock racing and coming agonisingly close to championship success during his career.
โItโs been a long time out of the seat, but itโs like riding a bike,โ Newcombe said. โIโm coming back to give it everything Iโve got.โ
Now, Newcombe will return to competition at Willowbank for the Pro Stock Nationals, joining a field of Australiaโs leading Pro Stock teams for a dedicated two-day event.
โPro Stock is a driverโs class and there are some very talented drivers out there. With John helping me, Iโm confident we can get to the top,โ he said.
The Pro Stock Nationals will be Newcombeโs first major opportunity to measure himself against the current generation of Pro Stock racers, but after spending years away from the seat, simply getting back to where he belongs is an achievement in itself.
Come September, the familiar Pro Stock car will once again roll through the Willowbank staging lanes with Dave Newcombe behind the wheel.
