Speedweek wrap up.

Hi all

Well speedweek is done and we are home again.

The last night of speedweek was at Warnambool and the racing was great, Warnambool Premier Speedway is the Holy Grail of Australian Sprintcar Racing in my eyes, the Classic each year is the premium event on the Australian calendar with only the Aussie title being more prestigious to win.

Again there were 6 West Aussie cars or teams.
Monte Motorsports, Milling Motorsports, Miller Motorsports, Kendrick Racing, David Priolo and Kris Coyle for Fisher Racing.

The top 4 teams are all good with consistent cars and each had a car in the A main with only Jason Kendrick not making it out of the B.
David Priolo up till this point had had a week he would like to forget but at Warnambool he was on the gas and made it into the A easily.

Kris again time trialled poorly but made the inversion, he ran 4th in the first heat and second in the second heat after Kerry Madsen slid him going into turn 3 on the last lap.

After the second heat Kris admitted he had never run so close to the wall in his racing life, and in fact he had the rear wheel touch it 3 times during the heat, it was a very Ryan Farrel like drive.

The fast boys took out the night with Jason Johnson winning and Craig Dollansky second.

We are really looking forward to the classic and the Aussie title over there later this month, it will be racing well worth seeing.
