Slow Start, Strong Finish                                                                                                24-11-06

On a Parramatta City Raceway (PCR) track surface that was a tough task for even the most experienced of competitors, Antony Jeffrey came away from the latest round of the PCR Sprintcar track championship with a respectable finish.

At the beginning of the season Jeffrey laid out his intentions clearly: to qualify for the B-mains on a more regular basis, and the # 47 AutObarn –Villawood supported J&J driver came very close to achieving a B-main birth by placing fourth in the C-main.

However, the night wasn’t all beer and skittles for Jeffrey as he was crippled by a fuel system drama earlier in the night forcing him to miss his qualifying time trial order position, and run a solitary lap at the end of the session. Jeffrey’s single lap time was only good enough for him to place 53rd out of the 55 car field.  

Due to missing out on running in the top 48 in time trials, Jeffrey took his place in the non-qualifiers heat race where he was able to recover from a mid-race spin (whilst running second to Ian Burrows) to finish third.  

Starting from deep in the field for the C-main (position 11), Jeffrey worked his way forward to finish a commendable fourth place.

“We didn’t have the best of starts to the night, but by the end of it I was pretty happy,” Jeffrey enthused.

“The track conditions were quite tough, especially for the newcomers, and the whole aim for the night was to just move forward the best we could and to finish fourth in the C-main after starting from position 11 was very encouraging.”

With this coming weekend absent of Sprintcar competition in NSW, Jeffrey and his Raw Fuel Racing team will return to the track on Saturday, December 2 for the eighth round of the PCR track championship.
