Peter Cooper aka Mr. Slyfox arrived at the track nice and early with all his gear to set up live timing and some live video. You can view the live timing & video on his website. It will be up tomorrow and right the way through till the A Main on Sunday evening! So make you sure you get on, and watch the racing from where ever you are!
So after the 2 rounds of timed practice we saw local WA boy Josh Pain take TQ followed by Dale Smulders. So after a 40 min lunch break we got right back into with 1 round of qualifying. This saw everyone step up to the next level. This was awesome to watch and a great time to take some photos. So after the first round of qualifying we saw Martin Wolhunter TQ. Below are the top 24 from the first round.
