Career first win for Bentvelzen at Clyde

WINGLESS Sprint Super Series round two winner Dayn Bentvelzen won a gruelling main event from Nathan Dicker in second place and Andrew Sayre in third at Valvoline Raceway (VR).

It was Bentvelzen’s career first win at the Clyde track and a career best finish for teenager rookie Wingless racer Andrew Sayre.
Four times Australian V8 Dirt Modified Champion Kevin Britten’s bid for five crowns later this month at VR was given a sizeable boost with his main event win.
Britten led home Victorian standout Brett Clarke in second and Lismore’s Mark Robinson in third in the final hit-out before the Aussie title on February 21/22.
The season has now seen Britten, Robinson, Clarke and Scott Cannon win main events as the national title shootout looms in three weeks.
Warren Ferguson made a welcome return to Speedcar racing but it was Nathan Smee who got the job done in the Speedcar main event.
Matt Jackson trailed Smee and Ferguson to complete the podium.
Smee took the Wollongong Auto Parts GRD to his first win of the season but it was cool to see Warren Ferguson return to his roots with a great runner-up position in the category that started it all for him at the then PCR.
Reid Mackay also made a return to the top five and DJ Raw continued his speedy form to run fourth.
Cam Malouf recorded one of his best results for seventh and West Aussie Keenan Fleming made the long trek east to record a 13th position finish.
Liam Camilleri backed up his earlier season victory with another A-Main success in the Legend Cars battle.
Camilleri now has a back to back record as he lead home John Egan and Jacob Griffin to complete the podium last night in exceptionally warm conditions.
