With large amounts of rain approaching on the radar it was estimated we had 25 minutes before the downpour the track was still good so it was decided not to have intermission and go straight into the feature races.

The feature race saw Todd Davis and Karl Magerl of the front and as the lights turned green Todd just took off to lead on the high line to the end with Karl following and with Merv Woolford trying high and low line to pass Karl but to no avail making Todd Davis first Karl Magerl second and Merv Woolford third.

LIMITED SPRINTCAR STATE TITLE MAY 3RD 2014


 
 
 
 
 
 
 
4 Wide Feature Line up
 
Hi to all the last meeting on our calendar has been run and won which was the Limited Sprint car  State Title on 3rd May 2014 it was a great night of racing for all competitors it was unfortunate that the date was changed as we lost four drivers thru work commitments it was a night to remember as the feature went for 20 laps non stop

The programme was time trials by heats and each car was given two heats one with the fastest time trailed car off the rear of each heat and the second heat a reverse grid making the highest point from time trials and the heats off the pole position



Fastest in Time Trials Merv Woolford #81




Time trials fastest Merv Woolford second Brayden Miller and coming third Anthony Gaudio from Geraldton and fourth was Jacob Lucas

 
Gavin Davis blew his motor, Mark Miller offered Gavin his second car for the night very kind gesture, which gave Gavin the chance to compete instead of watching from the grandstands, The true LSA spirit was in full force when Merv Woolford rolled his car in the first heat destroying his top and front wing and front end, when his car was bought back to the pits everyone was offering him parts and helped in getting his car back together for the feature.

 
First heat saw John Mongrel Magerl  and Mick Doble off the front it was a great race Merv Woolford coming off the back going though the field picking them off one at a time and coming up to Mick Doble who had lead from the start and Merv was about to pass him but just clipped the rear of his car and rolled quite badly destroying his car leaving Mick Doble to take first and Ben Migro second and Brett Barndon third.

 
Heat 1 Round 1 Winner Mick Doble

Second heat round one saw Annette Crabbe and Bruce Farquar off the front this was an exciting heat too as Brayden Miller went From the rear right up to the second to follow Todd Davis across the line and Jacob Lucas third
Heat 2 Round 1 Winner Brayden Miller
 
Second round heat one saw Brayden Miller and Steven Kendall off the front but Brayden took the lead straight away and led till the finish, Blue Stannard all the way from Wickham his night ended  when he hit the wall,  First Brayden Miller with Ben Migro second with Gavin Davis third in a borrowed car
Round 2 Heat 1 Winner Brayden Miller
 
Blue making sparks fly when he went into the Wall
 
Last heat of the night saw Anthony Gaudio and Jacob Lucas off the front it was a great race to watch with Jacob Lucas winning this one with Anthony Gaudio second and Brett Barndon third.
Round 2 Heat 2 Winner Jacob Lucas
 
The feature race saw Brayden Miller with the highest points of the front row and choosing to take the outside with Jacob Lucas first time in history of the LSA we had 2 18year olds on the front row  they all had a great start with Brayden taking the lead straight away, back in the field it was great to see that Merv Woolford had repaired his car there wear quite a few changes back in the field but at the finish after 20 laps of none stop racing we saw Brayden Miller take the Chequed flag to win the event Jacob Lucas second and Mick Doble third.
Presentation were made trackside at Victory Lane, the top 3 were given trophies and sashes, Hard luck for the feature was with Benny Migro his car failed to start due to an electrical problem.

 

Making Brayden Miller the youngest driver in the club to ever win a Limited State Title and we would like to thank all who have followed the limited Sprintcar association race meetings over the year.
