The title will be held for the first time at the Mount since 2005/06 when Troy Jordan was victorious.
Also, on the program is the Victorian Wingless Sprints Summer Slam Round 1 which takes in rounds at The Mount, Hamilton on Saturday with the final at Warrnambool on Sunday.
In excess of 45 cars have nominated with plenty of cars going in thinking they have a chance of winning. The class boasts several stars namely Daniel Storer, Matthew Symons, Luke Weel, David Cook, Todd Hobson while the local south east drivers will be keen to put on a good show for their local sponsors and fans and they are Mitchell Broome, Micheal Ross and rookie Kirby Hillyer who has been very impressive.

Current Australian champ Anthony Beare heads the charge along with fellow South East drivers Mark Jennings, Steve Gartner, Jason Duell & Jayden Edwards. Drivers from Adelaide will make the trek down South with Paul Hayes, Carey Weston, Hayden Jolly and Jeremy Weston just to name a few.
