Introduction to Wigzell Racing Team 

Todd Wigzell began his racing career as a junior in 1994 in Dirt Karts for 2 seasons and in 1999 made his speedway debut in V8 Dirt Modifieds where he continued to race for 5 seasons in car #88 along side of brother Shane in car #77. In this time Todd was SA Highest Points Scorer for 3 successive years (2001-2003). He returned to speedway behind the wheel of an Australian Wingless Sprint (formerly NOS Sprint) in 2008 in the inaugural season of the class in South Australia and won the Southern Shootout Series and also won the Drivers’ Driver Award. In his second year, he took out 1st position in the Wingless Sprint SA Title held at Mount Gambier. 

Todd has taken on race number #88 which was made famous by his grandfather, Bill Wigzell, in the purple super modified “Suddenly”. In 1979 Bill Wigzell was rewarded with an Order of Australia Award from the Queen for his service to the sport of motor racing and in 2008 was inducted into the Speedway Hall of Fame for his numerous achievements during his speedway career spanning 42 years racing solos, midget speedcars and super modifieds and sprintcars.

 It was inevitable that Todd would eventually get into speedway racing after spending his toddler to teenage years as a passionate speedway spectator. He has been encouraged throughout his racing years not only by his grandfather Bill, but also his parents Chris & Jenny and younger siblings Shane & Kelly. He has great support also from his other crew members Frommy & Rollsy, his sponsors and the Dillon & Pitt families.
