Albanys Bill Penn has taken out Round Two of the 2017/2018 GWN7 WA Modified Sedan Series held at Attwell Park Speedway in the Great Southern region of Western Australia.
The meeting which doubled as the SouthPoint Panel and Paint shootout was held in front of a big crowd with perfect weather conditions greeting the competitors.
Broomes Ray Clifton would race his way to victory in heat one with early race leader Anthony King retiring on lap three with mechanical issues.
Penn and Aydan Trewern had a great battle for the lead in heat two with Calon Ball pulling to the infield prior to the start of the race. Penn held off Trewern winning heat two with Clifton coming home in third.
Clifton again showed great speed in the final heat defeating Penn and Adam Houston with Aydan Trewern pulling to the infield with engine issues.
The Totally Independent Tyre Service Shootout was a great spectacle with Branden Fraser working his way forward to third with Penn collecting pole position for the main event.
The fifteen lap finale saw Penn great the jump from the front row with Clifton, Fraser and the two Balls Miranda and Calon in hot pursuit.
Calon Ball headed to the infield on lap eight with mechanical issues with Penn pulling away from the field throughout the race to win comfortably. Clifton came home second from Fraser, Miranda Ball and Adam Houston.
