Quick time and A-main race winner, Jock Goodyer

Last Saturday’s round one of the SRA Open Sprintcar Series saw Jock Goodyer lead every lap of the A-Main to take the chequered flag – along with the $5,000 prizemoney.

Goodyer won the 30-lap feature race, finishing ahead of local driver Jamie Veal, with Brock Hallett rounding out the top three.

Goodyer’s win capped off a great night for the Tasmanian, having earlier won the quick time award when he set the fastest lap in the time trials of 10.678 seconds.

The night’s ‘Hard Charger’ award went to Marcus Dumesny who made his way from 16th to fifth while the ‘Hard Luck’ award went to James Oliver who crashed heavily in turn two of lap 12.

Round one of the Wingless Sprints Super Series saw Travis Millar grab victory over Luke Weel, with Blake Walsh finishing third.

Millar set a new 25-lap track record when he posted a time of 6:14.25, breaking the previous record of 6:15.94 set by Daniel Storer.

When gates opened at 4pm last Saturday, members of the public enjoyed an hour-long open pit session, giving crowds an opportunity to take a close look at the cars, talk to their favourite drivers and pick up some merchandise.

Action will return to the Allansford track next Saturday, November 15 with the 360-LS Sprintcars, Modified Sedans and the running of the annual Jack Willsher Cup for Formula 500s.
