THE INTERNATIONAL SPEEDWAY MASTERS RETURNS
A major international speedway motorcycle event has been added to the 2024 season calendar, following the announcement that the Ikon Suspension International Speedway Masters, will be staged at Gillman Speedway Stadium, in Adelaide this summer.
The massive two-night, speedway bike extravaganza, is be staged on Friday Night, December 27 and Saturday Night, December 28.
Night one will feature international sidecars, whilst night two will show case a crack field of international solos, with six countries represented.
Named after arguably the biggest event in Australian speedway bike history, the Ikon Suspension International Speedway Masters Series (staged between 1995 and 2001), this year’s Adelaide two-night, blockbuster, will be an event not to be missed.
The name of the event; will undoubtedly stir the emotions and memories, of the speedway faithful that followed the International Speedway Masters across Australia during its golden years.
Whilst the Gillman event is being held over two nights, rather than being an Australia-wide series; the event promises to re-create much of the glitz and glamour, that the International Speedway Masters, was renowned for across the world.
The December 27 and 28 Gillman event is being promoted by Power Productions, the company responsible for conducting the International Speedway Masters Series, which spanned 69 events, nationally, over a six-year period.
Power Productions also co-promoted the recent Australian Speedway Centenary and was a partner in the hugely successful Sidecar Grand Slam Series.
It has also conducted the Australian Solo Championship Series and has been involved in promoting multiple one-off major events in South Australia (Wayville Showground) and New South Wales (Gosford Showground).
Power Productions’ Managing Director, David Tapp, says he is excited by the fact the legendary International Speedway Masters name will once again be prominent in Australian speedway.
"I always aspired to use the name, International Speedway Masters again, thus I have continued to register the name in the hope I'd find an opportunity to bring "the legend back”.
"The Australian Speedway Centenary proved, resoundingly, that Speedway bike fans want to see the best sidecars and solos on consecutive nights, so I have decided to "keep the concept alive".
"Gillman Speedway Stadium is the best bike speedway venue in Australia, bar none, so it's entirely appropriate to conduct the event there.
“The Gillman venue has the best infrastructure in the country and an outstanding history, staging major national and international events, so it’s a no brainer that the revitalised Ikon International Speedway Masters is held at the Adelaide complex,” Tapp concluded.
The two-night Ikon International Speedway Masters will show case the “best of the best” in both the sidecar and solo classes.
The event will also feature tributes to world speedway legends that have made an incredible contribution to the sport globally and were superstars of the International Speedway Masters during its zenith.
On December 27, the world’s best sidecar riders will contest the Darrin Treloar Cup, named in honour of the world’s most successful ever rider. The best sidecar teams from across Australia will do battle against the best of the best from America and New Zealand.
Night two, December 28, will show case an elite field of international 500cc solos, competing in the Leigh Adams Medal, created as a tribute to the most successful ever rider in the ISM of yesteryear. Several World Champions are taking from Australia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Poland, America and England.
The event will be live streamed to the world, in 4K high definition and has also attracted 12 hours of television coverage on Fox Sports, Kayo and Foxtel GO.
The two-night event will also feature a 25 square metre big screen and spectacular fireworks sky shows.
