McFadden Doubles Up At Timmis
After getting the better of Jock Goodyer in a photo finish in the Preliminary Feature on Friday night, current Australian Champion James McFadden doubled up on Saturday as he won the Waters Whiskey Sprintcar Scorcher at Mildura’s Timmis Speedway.
For a majority of the 35-lap finale it appeared that McFadden would have to settle for the runner-up position as he trailed race leader Thomas Meseraull by over three seconds, but a late race caution erased the Americans substantial lead and with six laps to go McFadden made an aggressive pass in turn three that forced Meseraull off the rubbered up racing line. Meseraull would hold onto second, his best result during his Australian Tour, while Lockie McHugh completed the podium.
Following his car destroying crash in turn three on night 1, Luke Storer bounced back finishing fourth, rewarding the Michael Miller led Perrett Family Racing Team for their efforts in putting a back up car together overnight. Opening night’s runner up Jock Goodyer finished fifth ahead of Jordyn Charge, New Zealander Max Guilford, Brendan Quinn, Parker Scott and Matt Egel.
For Guilford his seventh placed result was a major improvement from the opening night where he damaged his powerplant requiring an engine change for night 2.
Jackson Delamont, Jacob Smith, Ben Morris, Will Carroll, Randy Morgan, Corey Sandow and Justin Morris completed the finishers. Rookie Hayden Vickers, who was a late nomination on Saturday in his LS powered #SA98 following the rain out at Horsham, and Broken Hill resident Brendan Guerin failed to finish the finale. Up until the A-main event Guerin had enjoyed a great weekend having finished fourth on Friday and qualifying for the top 6 Shootout on Night 2.
Ash Cook was a scratching on Saturday night following a scary methanol fire during the opening round of heats on Friday.
The format for the weekend included Time Trials, two rounds of heats and a 30-lap final on Friday with a further heat for all drivers on Saturday, a top 6 time trial and the 35-lap Scorcher A-main.
The night kicked off with Time Trials with Portland’s Luke Storer topping the charts ahead of Guerin, McHugh and McFadden.
Heat winners on Friday included McHugh, McFadden, Carroll and Meseraull. The top 10 in the Preliminary A-main were McFadden, Goodyer, McHugh, Guerin, Quinn, Meseraull, Charge, Scott, Ben Morris and Morgan. During the main event both Storer and Carroll rolled, both at the turn 3-4 end of the Speedway.
Saturday night saw Quinn and Meseraull each take a heat win while Storer secured the pole for the final after topping the top 6 Time Trial with a lap of 12.704 ahead of Meseraull, McHugh, McFadden, Goodyer and Guerin.
