F125 State Titles - Mt Barker 29th April 2023
The biggest day of racing finally arrived after being postponed due to some bad weather last month.
We had a split field with 14 fast and competitive cars nominated in the senior division for State Titles, it was a great day of racing on a very trying track.
With a large amount of rain over the last few weeks, Thank you to Mt Barker Speedway for all the effort put into the track prep for the State Title.
Heat 1 - I pulled peg 12 which put me in the second field of cars starting in 5th position and finishing 3rd.
Heat 2 - I started in 2nd position in the first field and finished in 3rd.
Heat 3 - Starting in 4th position in the second field and finished in 3rd.
State Title Race - I started in 5th position with some of the fastest and most experienced drivers taking the first 4 positions. I knew i would have to work hard but I held 5th for the first half of the race until Taylor hit a rut and i slipped past him into 4th, which is where i finished.
My goal was to finish in the top 10 and my dream was top 5 and i’m absolutely stoked to have that dream turn into reality.
Congratulations to the top 3 drivers (Bill, Sam & Braiden) who were fast all day and Thank you to all the other F125 families for making the journey down and helping make this State Title another great weekend of racing.
Thank you to my parents for all the time and effort spent getting my car ready. Thank you to my Grandparents, Uncle and Cousins for making the trip to Mt Barker and cheering me on.
A big shout out to my sponsors: Japline, Coastal Windscreen’s & Tinting, Lane Buck & Higgins and Narrogin Valley Stockfeeds as this wouldn’t be possible without you all.
