Cherry On Top At Tullyroan Oval |
 |
Local Tullyroan 10-year-old Casey Cherry was the star of the Tullyroan Oval meeting last Saturday night, the young driver taking a hat-trick of wins in only his third ever race meeting to take home the coveted Golden Helmet Trophy for Junior Productions.
During the meeting there were Tullyroan Challenge Cup wins for Strabane’s James McKinney in the Lightning Rods and Chris Hamill from Gawley’s Gate in the 1300 Stock Cars. To complete the programme, both Londonderry’s Dean McFarland and Portglenone’s Lewis Hazlett claimed heat and final doubles in the 2.0 Hot Rods and Ninja Karts repectively.
Scottish drivers Koddi Wright and Maia Thompson joined the regulars for a 20 car field of Junior Productions for the Golden Helmet, presented each year by the McKeown family. Novice grader Casey Cherry, in only his third race meeting, showed some great speed to pull clear of the field from pole position to win heat one. Robbie Dallas and Brandon Litter filled out the top three in that one, before Cherry again dominated the second heat. This time it was Lexi Crooks and Daniel Stewart who completed the top three.
The final on aggregate points from the heats saw Cherry on pole position with Crooks alongside, and despite his lack of experience, Cherry was quickly able to settle into the lead. Dallas challenged early on but Casey was able to edge out an advantage that he kept all the way to the chequered flag to seal a fantastic hat-trick of wins. Casey received the stunning Golden Helmet Cup from the McKeown family, with Weir and Harry Minish completing the podium finishers ahead of Callum Doak and Dallas.
Three welcome Republic of Ireland visitors in Padraig Palmer, Pat O’Sullivan and Jamie Bowen boosted the Lightning Rod numbers for their Tullyroan Challenge Cup. European Champion Nigel Jackson was aiming for five Challenge Cups in as many years, and he got his title defence off to the best possible start with victory in heat one over James McKinney and Ross Houston. McKinney had looked very rapid in the opener, and he turned that speed into victory in heat two ahead of Gerry Rogers and Mark McCambridge.
Despite the best efforts of Jackson in the final, McKinney blasted away from pole position and wouldn’t be challenged all the way home for an emphatic win. Jackson, McCambridge, Houston and Mark Corry completed the top places.

An impressive 19 car field of 1300 Stock Car took to the Tullyroan grid, with superb action and bumperwork throughout the opening heat. Ulster & NI Points Champion Chris Hamill stormed through from the rear to take a great win over Tommy McCrory and David Wilson. Heat Two again saw action all around the raceway, with Fionn Donnelly hanging on for a very welcome win ahead of Ivan Elliott and Marcus Crossett.
With Hamill on pole spot for the final, his rivals were hoping to get a hit on him early on, but he was equal to the challenge and made the perfect getaway to edge clear out front. Chris wouldn’t be challenged all the way to the Tullyroan Challenge Cup win, with Brown a gallant runner up and Josh McKinstry getting the better of an entertaining scrap with Elliott for third.
A healthy field of 2.0 Hot Rods was bolstered by visitors Sean Maher and Brendan O’Connell. Dean McFarland set the pace in the opening heat, but he had no answer to flying former World title holder Wayne Woolsey. He swooped right around the outside to take the victory in some style over McFarland and Michael Rodgers. Heat two saw McFarland this time get the head down and pull well clear early on, winning from Rodgers and rapid Irish Champion Drew McKeown.
McFarland again settle into the early lead in the final, with Scott Cochrane this time doing the chasing having broken free from the star grade. Scott really had the hammer down as he reduced the deficit lap by lap. He would ultimately run out of time though, with McFarland completing a very polished heat and final double in great fashion. Behind runner up Cochrane, Allen Cherry impressed in his new car in third.
The Ninja Karts kids once again entertained with three great races. Kori Curran took a commanding win in the opening race, heading home Jack Murphy and Keegan Turtle. Ethan McQuillan led for much of heat two, only being relegated by a flying Lewis Hazlett with two laps to go.
The final again saw the impressive McQuillan out front again until he and Curran spun out of contention. The rapid Hazlett hit the front and he reeled off the remaining laps to seal his double for the evening in great style. Irish Champion Charlie Johnston was second ahead of NI Points Champ Riley-Dawson Stirling in third.
