Josh Crang was simply perfect on Saturday night, at the Ian Boettcher Race Parts Kingaroy Speedway, winning all three of his qualifying heats and the Production Sedans A Main.
In fact, Crang set the quickest lap in every race he competed in as well, apart from heat five, where he set the second quickest time.
In the A Main, Crang led throughout, in a race that went without incident or stoppage. Patrick Brennan started beside Crang in the fifteen lap decider, but despite giving great chase, was always five car lengths behind Crang. Dayne Francis would finish close behind Brennan, while Adrian Stott, who started beside Francis on the second row, was fourth.
Earlier, Brad Scherer, Francis and Brennan won qualifying heats, two, four and six respectively, while Crang won the remaining three.
