The Manjimup Speedway held it's re opening on Saturday Night April 5th 2008 it was a massive success, the terraces were full and over 70 competitors from 7 differant divisions made their way into the venue for the much awaited re opening.
With a slight shower of rain 1 hour before opening, that would be the only downer for the night, the meeting started at 6.00pm & ended at 10.03pm. Only one track incident all night & Mark Mathews driving the #30 Dirt Late Model was quoted saying "this place is Australia's best kept secret, there isn't another venue in this country where we can go this fast, cant wait till we run a couple of shows here next season"
The Manjimup Speedway had received a grant from the state government to re do fencing, lighting & clubrooms. This has been achieved with a massive result for the club.
On the Saturday night of the re opening a large team of people led by Gary & Louise Kingston enjoyed their achievements in re developing Manjimup Speedway as a force in Western Australian Speedway.
