 After
a nasty bone jarring roll at Tyrepower Parramatta City
Raceway last Friday night which left the NSR team NSW6
Stealth/Fontana destroyed, Nathan Smee remains
determined to complete the six round Speedcar Super
Series despite rumours circulating that the Sydney hot
shot will drop out prior to Round 5 at Charlton Raceway,
Toowoomba.
“The crew have been doing some long hours to strip the
wreckage and build a new car from scratch” said Smee
from his workshop. “Our sponsor Kingsfeld Excavation
purchased a new Stealth chassis for us and we’re now
working to fix or replace everything on the car to have
it ready for round five of the Speedcar Super Series and
the title the following weekend”.
Currently running eighth in the SSS Championship overall
and sixth in the actual SSS contractor point score prize
pool behind Victorian star Harley Bishop by less than
300 points; Smee is adamant the only thing that could
keep him away from round five is if the engine suffered
significant damage in the wreck.
“As long the engine is alright… That’s the main thing.
Terry King of Dominator Engines is coming over this week
to go through the engine and hopefully it hasn’t been
damaged. If it’s okay we should have the car as a roller
by Thursday, ready to engine start and test this
Saturday night”.
  
Watch for the new Smee NSW6 machine when it hits
Charlton Raceway Toowoomba on Saturday 20th January.
While it may not be repainted in the NSR finery before
SSS Round five, Smee will be one to watch come race
time.
