RAIN ENDS AUSTRALIAN WINGLESS TITLE

RAIN ENDS AUSTRALIAN WINGLESS TITLE

With final preparations made, the field whittled down from 81 entries to its 20 highest point scorers and drivers ready to rock before mother nature did the unthinkable as the heavens opened before the 2022 AWSR Australian Wingless Sprint Championship A-Main could fire a shot.

With defending champion Kyle Mock on pole and the feisty Daniel Storer alongside him on the front row, rain began tumbling down and never really let up long enough for the track team to get the show on the road again.

It was a crushing blow to drivers, teams, fans, Murray Bridge Speedway and Australian Wingless Sprint Racing (AWSR) who had all contributed enormously to make the weekend a memorable one.

Starting with the twenty one heats on Friday night and preliminary A-Main win by Rylan Furler, the Saturday night finale had plenty of expectation.

With the final seven heats run, two C-Mains and two B-Mains all appeared set for a memorable conclusion.

Unfortunately the threatening inclement weather closed in and the weekend had to be abandoned just minutes before the green flag was set to fall on the 40-lap, 20-car title decider.

The idea of a Sunday race was unfortunately quashed with the limited availability of emergency services (paramedics/ambulance).

No Wingless Sprint Australian Champion has been declared for 2022.

The AWSR and Murray Machining & Sheds Murray Bridge Speedway wishes to thank fans, teams, sponsors, club members, the committee and all of the respective volunteers who made the weekend such a success throughout.

The rain-out so close to the A-Main was hard to take, especially after the huge effort by everyone concerned to conduct the weekend.
