Toowoomba's Dennis Bullpitt is looking forward to the upcoming assault on two of the biggest national Modified Production Sedan events that are held each season with the beginning at Lismore Speedway in NSW for the National title where Bullpitt is one of 70+ competitors all trying to achieve their personal goals followed by the Queensland title the week after at his home track Charlton Speedway in Toowoomba.

Bullpitt has set himself the first goal of trying to win a heat race followed by qualifying directly for the feature event at Lismore in the Australian title event. If the qualification goal is achieved the Toowoomba Steering & Suspension team will then set new goals for where they finish in the big race.

Bullpitt sponsors or offers assistance to a number of race drivers in Modified Production Sedans and although he is a Ford man in his EL Falcon he has strong representation for his business from Holden drivers in the Macdonald Brothers team of Shane & Nathan and the husband and wife team of Cathy & Rodney Pammenter who he will have to race with and against and whom he will assist and seek assistance from at the race track.

In the lead up to the Easter weekend Australian title Bullpitt raced at Lismore Saturday week ago and smashed the oil cooler of the car which pumped the sump dry. After some work on the car they tested last Saturday night with great results and the feeling that everything is set and ready for the national title.

With all things being good after the Australian Championship Bullpitt would settle for no less than a top five position in the Queensland title even though it’s a very competitive state title.

Bullpitt spoke of the upcoming racing. "The national title has the best of the nation all there and it will be tough which is why we are not yet looking beyond qualifying before we reassess. With the Queensland title though I feel we are capable of a top five finish having finished in the top five at many events this season around Queensland. Sure racing is fun and that’s what it is meant to be however once we cross from the pit enclosure onto the race track we all get the 'blow the doors of everybody else' fever! I'd be happy with a straight car and to be in both feature races at the national and the Queensland titles."

Dennis is appreciative of his loyal crew that includes Crew Chief Darren McLoughlin, Tyre man Tony Reinke and wife Jodie Bullpitt.
