Dirt Oval TQ

Hey everyone.
Today and yesterday, I have been working on a really really cool drawing.
This particular car in the photo is called a TQ Midget. They are absolute beasts on the Dirt Oval tracks they race on. This car is real, I just colored it a bit differently to the real life version.
This car is the 88c Jeremy Webb, who races at Christchurch´s open wheel speedway.
The speedway´s full name is Racecourse Motorlodge & Motel Ruapuna Speedway. It is in Prebbleton on Hasketts Rd, right next to the Ruapuna V8 Road course. It is very very popular in the speedway season (Early November - Early April) and usually maxes out at about 900 people minimum per Race Meeting. The last time I went to the speedway was 7th December 2019 to watch the Sprint Car Grand Slam and the Southern Midget Series.
Anyway, here is a picture of the 88c TQ Drawing. IT´S A LOT BETTER IN THE ACTUAL DRAWING THAN IN THE PHOTO. or at least the lighting is. I will have another blog up by sunday of another Dirt Oval Race Car. If you want to see this particular car in action irl, The 88c Is in Group 2. It´s shown in the second race, fifth race, eighth race, eleventh race (Pole Shuffle) and the Twelfth and final race (A Main)  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XWOGbv70gIo

  1. Hi Tyler, I like your drawing of the TQ Midget racecar. You have taught me something new today. Remember to also blog the learning that we did in reading and Maths today as that was part of your tasks.

  2. Kia ora Tyler! Awesome drawing and thank you for sharing your speedway knowledge with us. I have been to Woodford Glen but have never been to Ruapuna. I look forward to seeing some more blog posts of the activities you have been working on at home.
