Kerry did an engine.
They are currently changing overnight.

We broke a camshaft this morning in Q2 and have packed it away for the long drive home..... :(

The sound they made had the crowd going every time they left the pitts . Coxy's SAAB had a awsome sound going on . :D

Shanes Camaro coming through the double left 4 and 5 would have been a good photo op it just looked right B) . Bert that helps me couldn't shutup about them . :rolleyes:

How about the Championship battle coming into the final Round at Wakefield Park!



The winner is likely to come from the Baily, Hossack, Ricciardello trio, but Shane Bradford is still in with a mathematical chance after an awesome season in the Camaro.

We can't forget about Des's fantastic season either, He has been taking it to Kerry all year and would have been right in the fight also without unfortunately having to miss the QLD Round!

It's shaping up to be one of the best battles in Kerrick Sports Sedan Series history and will be an amazing weekend down at Wakefield Park in October!

It was a sad sight to see the Torana on the trailer earlier than it should have been.....

That Turn 4 is a bit tighter than it appears hey mate!! Your speedway effort there was almost as spectacular as Robbo doing his best effort to end up in the Lake in Race 1!!

Terrific that you made the trip up, congratulations on the Kerrick Award for the weekend also!!

You've got some unfinished business in QLD Damo! Hope to see you back again soon!

Cheers,
CD.

The Kerrick award was a big suprise for sure when I read Rob's email :D

I would have thought that Kerry's team doing an all nighter engine change would have been up there for the award.

A big thankyou to Malcolm and the Kerrick team for their ongoing support of our category, and Rob for keeping us organised.

Yes CD, that turn 4 certainly sucks you in, and I was only getting up to speed when the Folden engine played up.

We will be back to Qld some day as we have unfinished business at both QR and Morgan Park B)

Congratulations to everyone on the weekend who entered, and a pity we had a few no shows from the locals :(

The good news is that the only damage to the engine was the broken camshaft, not even a bent valve......whew!!

See you at Wakefield Park (Shhh, let's keep this a secret from Andrea at this stage!!!) ;)


And finally a big GET WELL to Des and hope to see you back in action soon.
