| Only eight weeks remain on the clock for the 2007/2008 Wallace Bishop Jewellers
National Photographic Competition. The competition provides amateur and professional photographers the opportunity to win more than $20,000 in cash and prizes, simply by taking photos of the on and off track action at their local drag racing strip and entering them online at www.stuartbishopracing.com.au Wallace Bishop Jewellers CEO and pilot of the Stuart Bishop Racing Diamond Doorslammer, Stuart Bishop, invited racing fans to get involved before time runs out, with entries officially closing at 5.00pm Friday April 25th, 2008. “There are two categories available, one for Stuart Bishop Racing and one for drag racing across the board, and I sincerely hope that anyone interested in drag racing takes the chance to be involved and possibly win some great prizes,” said Bishop. “The feedback I have received since the inaugural running of this competition has been all positive and we really want to grow things during the 2008 version,” said Bishop. “It’s all about the fans and giving them the opportunity to assist with the progression of Australian drag racing and also allows our team to give back to the sport that has provided all of us so much joy. “The whole idea with the Wallace Bishop Jewellers photographic competition is to give regular race goers an interactive opportunity at any track in the country and the chance to win some great prizes. “Drag racing is a true passion of mine and I hope everyone has their camera at the ready at their local strip to take plenty of good shots to submit into the competition. “As has been illustrated in last year’s finalists and the entires submitted so far this year, we are looking at genuine creativity and something a little different with the images submitted. I encourage everyone to get their thinking caps on and hope we can come up with an even better collection of finalists by the time entries close in eight weeks.” The overall winning entry selected from all winners of each category will be awarded a half carat 50-point diamond. This is an identical diamond to the one encased in the roof of Stuart Bishop’s Diamond Doorslammer, which is situated somewhere among the configuration of 540 cubic zirconia. In the inaugural 2006/2007 Wallace Bishop Jewellers National Photographic Competition, the overall prize went to Mal Burgess for his winning entry 'Sainty Explosion'. While only eight weeks remain on the clock, there are plenty of opportunities still remaining to get in on some drag racing action. The length and breadth of the country will play host to a vast array of quarter mile drag racing action, coordinated at the three major venues in Ipswich, Sydney and Perth, plus plenty of smaller hotspots in between. The competition will incorporate images from Willowbank Raceway’s 40th Castrol EDGE Winternationals on June 8-10, 2007 through to Queensland’s Tin Top Titles on April 19. Five finalists in each category and subject area will be selected to be involved in a unique public art exhibition at the Ipswich Art Gallery. Images will be exhibited leading up to Willowbank Raceway’s 2008 Winternationals and extended through to the end of July. The exhibition will form a major component of the Gallery’s annual participation in Ipswich’s Carnival of Horsepower that seeks to promote the Ipswich Turf Club’s Ipswich Cup, Willowbank Raceway’s Castrol EDGE Winternationals and the local V8 Supercar round. The winners in each category will be announced at a special formal event at the Ipswich Art Gallery as an official promotional event towards the 2008 Castrol EDGE Winternationals. Full details of the Wallace Bishop photographic competition are available at www.stuartbishopracing.com.au as is all the new up to date information relevant to the SBR team and the ’67 Camaro Diamond Doorslammer.
