Another Series wrapped up
Sunday May
17, 2009. Tanya Barron
To All
Competitors, Crew & Sponsors,
Wow what an
end to the 5 round G & W Racing Modified Production Series for
2008/2009. After another great series with over 50 cars
participating in one round or another throughout the season it came
to an end at Maryborough Speedway on Sunday night the 3rd
of May.
Aiden
Raymont claimed the win on the night but it was his brother Mark
that took out the 2008/2009 G & W Racing Series. After 5 rounds it
came down to one race. Mark Raymont was leading Steve Price by 20
points going into the feature race. Aiden Raymont qualified out of
pole position with Troy Ware in second, Mark Raymont in third &
Rodney Pammenter out of fourth. Aiden led the way with Ware close
behind. Ware was running a different line to Raymont and looked a
serious threat until a few mistakes saw Pammenter & Grotherr slip
through. Pammenter never let Raymont out of his sight and with 14
laps remaining Pammenter started to apply the pressure placing the
car up near the fence and gaining momentum & mounted a challenge on
Raymont for the lead. With the slick track taking its toll
Pammenter was waiting for a mistake from Raymont but it wasn’t to be
with Aiden crossing the line in first after leading the race from
the start. Mark Raymont fell back into 5th place but
regained some pace & made his way back to 3rd with
Grotherr taking out 4th place.
The action
wasn’t limited to the front running cars with the heavily contested
race seeing cars racing three wide at times. Troy Ware ended up in 5th
followed by Dennis Shallcross, Steve Price, Mark Ferguson, Greg
Worling, Gary Maroske, David Kent, Rodney Midolo, Trent Humphreys
and Matt Swarbrooke.
Steve Price
hung in to collect valuable points which placed him in second in the
series. With Aiden Raymont’s win this saw him jump from 5th
to 3rd place in the series. Followed by Matt Swarbrooke
in 4th, Max Clarke in 5th, Darran Lester in 6th,
Mark Ferguson in 7th, Adrian Stott in 8th,
Quinton Clarke in 9th, David Jacobi in 10th &
Dennis Bullpit in 11th.
