Chainsaw racing back and better than ever

Chainsaw racing is back, faster and louder than ever on Saturday at the 2022 Bendigo Bank Stanthorpe Show.

Competitors vie for trophies in speed, disc stacking and post rip classes. There will also be a Jack and Jill competition, which is always a crowd favourite and the final of the Mountain Man Challenge.

You can’t miss them, we guarantee you’ll hear them before you see them, and you’re near the Can Bar or the Wine Pavilion when you get thirsty from watching them!
