Mad Wombat Racing

Apologies for the late update on our first night on the track racing for this season. My little man Luca has been unwell and our focus has been on him.

Initially we had a slow start to the day due to minimal laps done previous to race day, but we got on top of that reasonably quickly.

We had good solid runs against some of the top riders in modbike, each win we earnt with good numbers and clean racing.

We finally got to the finals which ended in a sweet bitter ending. I got the initial win with the tree going red against Chris Fryer, he accepted the tree with leaving the start line. After celebrating the season opener win at the end of the track we are advised the tree was faulty with the red light and required our final to be rerun.

Unfortunately I red lit on the rerun which handed the win to Chris. To say I was devastated is an understatement. Truly guttered. But I red lit and that's on me.

Congratulations to Chris Fryer for the win.

Determination and research has got the bike to where it is now, constantly running numbers, competitive and I am really comfortable with what the R1 can do. We will be back at the finals again during the season.

To the Motorplex staff, thank you for all your time and efforts to keep the venue running, without you we can't race.

It was such a pleasure to spend time last night with my Grandad who is 92 years young and my biggest fan.

He loved watching the videos of my runs and hearing all about the fantastic racing at the motorplex last night. Racing had been his life years ago at Claremont Speedway with the side cars.

To say he is proud is an understatement.

Interesting first round of the championship for us. Just wanted to attain our goal of making it thru the first round of the meeting and then this happened 😂

We are thrilled with winning the first round for the season.

Thank you to our sponsors for getting us looking fresh for the new season. Without your help we would not be out there having fun.
