Official Release Friday 29th March 2024.
Victorian Wade McCarthy has tonight set the fastest time in official practice ahead of this weekend’s Waternorth SSA Modified Sedan National Championship at the Cranes Combined Carrick Speedway .
McCarthy recorded a 16.359 second lap in the tenth practice session to finish just 0.065 seconds ahead of newly minted Tasmanian Champion Joel Berkley who recorded a 16.424 second circulation in the eighth session.
Defending National Champion Jarod Waters was third fastest with a 16.490 (session eleven) with Victorian Brody Chrystie (16.499 in session seven) and former National Champion Max Clarke with a 16.513 in session ten rounding out the top five.
There were twenty-seven sessions completed across the afternoon, thirty two of the thirty three competitors getting plenty of runs: the only one electing not to practice being Josh Marston.
The top fifteen drivers were all within half a second of each other, the top twenty-five less than a second apart.
Action kicks off tomorrow night at the Carrick Speedway with the first race from 6pm, the Modified Sedans contesting three rounds of heats prior to Sunday night’s final round of heats and the feature events.
