In a remarkable podium finish in Round 3 of the ENSCAR Championship. Starting from the 16th position on the grid, Knedler's journey to the podium was nothing short of commendable, characterized by calculated decisions and impressive pace throughout the race. From the outset, Knedler exhibited a strategic mindset, carefully navigating through the crowded field while preserving his car's performance for the latter stages of the race. His ability to maintain consistency and composure on the track laid the foundation for his eventual ascent through the field.

As the race unfolded, Knedler's team executed a flawless pit strategy, capitalizing on opportune moments to pit for fresh tyres and fuel without compromising track position. This astute strategy proved pivotal, allowing Knedler to maintain a competitive edge over his rivals while maximizing the performance potential of his car.

This amazing result adds to Karl's tally of podium results and continues VSK's run of form following Wayne's triumphant victory a week ago.

Opting for a safe and methodical drive from the outset. Demonstrating a keen understanding of race dynamics, Justin meticulously navigated through the challenges posed by the crowded field, avoiding unnecessary risks while steadily making progress through the ranks.

A defining aspect of Justin's race was his ability to maintain a competitive pace throughout the event. Despite starting from a relatively disadvantaged position, he showcased impressive speed and consistency, particularly in the latter stages of the race. As the laps unfolded, Justin's lap times began to mirror those of the race leaders, a testament to his unwavering determination and skill behind the wheel.

Additionally, Justin's strategic awareness was evident in his prudent utilization of resources, including tyre management and fuel conservation. By carefully managing these aspects of his race, he was able to maintain competitiveness while positioning himself for a strong finish.

Ultimately, Justin's 12th-place finish served as a testament to his resilience and racecraft. Through a combination of safe driving, consistent pace, and strategic acumen, he navigated the challenges of the Las Vegas Speedway circuit with finesse, earning a well-deserved spot among the top finishers and continues to build on his skill set and gain confidence to make these results more regular.

Knedler comes home in the Top 5!

Round 1 of the AussieOutlaws series was the Daytona 500! All 200 laps of it! Justin, Wayne and Karl were in the starting lineup and were joined by Luke Jager of Kiwi Simsport on the night.

It was 124 laps before the fist caution came out on the night and and there were only 3 in total. Luke got caught up in the wreck that caused the caution and we put him laps down. During the cycle Karl entered a closed pit and ultimately a 15s "stop-go" which put him a lap down to the field. Just had a pit incident with fueling that impacted his night.

The team would rally around and support Wayne who was running within the top for the later stages and some really good bump drafting would keep the cars in the mix. Two late cautions would help Karl get back onto the lead lap for the final laps and it was all to race for with Wayne and Karl in the top 10 with only 5 to go.

The run-in was fast and frantic with drivers throwing blocks and team looking to make moves. Luke was pushing Wayne and they were struggling to find an opening, but on the last lap the opportunity would come on the outside line and the boys went.

It was maybe too late for the win, but on track for a podium before cars on the low wrecked into Wayne and Luke and a bunch of cars wrecked over the line. That would give Karl the opportunity to get through a few cars in the field and coupled with a few time penalties, Karl would ultimately finish 5th!

On the night a good pair of top 10's to start the season.
5th - Karl Knedler #2
6th - Wayne van Biljon #3
18th - Luke Jager #44
19th - Justin Allan #6

Round 2, another drafting night to come and the boys are working well together!

Allan & Van Biljon will start in Top 10!

Duels night in the AussieOutlaws Daytona Speedweek with VSK having three entries on the night. Knedler qualified in 9th, Allan in 10th and van Biljon in 14th.

The early race running was good with the duels running green for the full 60 laps. The team was running will together and went into pit on lap 38 being the second group to come in. A fueling error on Knedler's #2 saw him delayed out the pits, leaving Allan and van Biljon to chase the lead pack down. With support from fellow SMNZ driver Luke Jager the group worked hard but could not catch the leaders, with van Biljon and Allan making the top 10.

On the night (and qualifying position for Daytona 500)
Wayne van Biljon #3 - 9th
Justin Allan #6 - 10th
Karl Knedler #2 - 18th

Good luck to the guys in the 500 tomorrow night!
