Penultimate Round of the Yamaha AORC Heads to Coonalpyn this weekend.

The Yamaha Australian Off-Road Championship (AORC) swings back into action again for rounds eight and nine on 31 August and 1 September.

The destination, Coonalpyn in South Australia, located about 143 kilometres south-east of the state capital of Adelaide.

Over 220 gladiators of the dirt will do battle this weekend with a double sprint format inplace for the South Australian round. It will be a case of hold it on and give your all for a lap as riders race against the clock across every type of terrain you can think of, from sand, through to some Mallee scrub, to some hard-packed clay.

Daniel Sanders is simply on a roll right now in the E3 class and is hard to look past anyone beating him as marches towards this year‰Ûªs championship crown.

With seven wins on the trot in 2019, can he make he make eight or possibly nine? You would brave to bet against him.

Beau Ralston, trails the Victorian rider by 27-points in the championship. While the championship is still within Ralston‰Ûªs grasp, its almost getting to the point where its going to be impossible for him to throw any sort of challenge to Sanders in terms of winning the championship.

What a fight we have on our hands for third place. Andrew Wilksch, who finished second to Sanders last time, and Jesse Lawton head into this weekend locked on 124-points apiece, while Matt Murry in ten points behind the pair.
