After seven track championship meetings at Sydney Dragway and seven Round 1 red lights, Mitchell Stevenson (in the Powerplus Panel van) finally got his first win! Add to that he did it with a .000 perfect light, it was a great way to start the day. The panel van runs on Powerplus 102+.
He got through to the quarter finals and despite a good 0.05 light he broke out due to the weather cooling down, running 12.738 on a 12.78 dial in. Well done Mitch.
Also now his mate Alex is on his crew and is going to get involved with the data side and he should be able to improve accuracy in dial-in times and avoid break outs, things are looking good for the rest of the season, hopefully this is the first of many wins.
The Torana also ran consistently all day and I got to the quarter finals as well but a slip up with trans-brake resulted in a red light.
All in all a very good day and I’m looking forward to Round 3 on the 30th May to finish off a busy month of racing in May. 2200DRA Chicago Shootout is on the 8th and TDRA at Gunnedah is on the 15/16th May.
– Martin, Powerplus Torana runs Powerplus 108+
