MADDINGTON TOYOTA SPRINTCAR SERIES SUNDAY, JANUARY 12, 2025 MEDIA RELEASE

Dayne Kingshott added another trophy to his impressive cabinet, by being crowned the Sprintcar Speedweek Champion at the Perth Motorplex on Saturday night, January 11.

The Bunbury-based driver finished fifth in the ninth and final night of the gruelling Speedweek campaign, earning enough points to edge out American and former Speedweek titleholder Brock Zearfoss who was 11th.

The margin between the two drivers after the series was just six points.

South Australian Matt Egel was third overall on 1186 points, boosted by a sixth-placed finish in the finale.

Former national champion James McFdden was fourth overall after a second to winner Kerry Madsen last night, while Callum Williamson was fifth.

And after 14 rounds Kingshott still holds a commanding lead in the 2024-25 Maddington Toyota Sprintcar Series.

Heading into the Speedweek Grand Final at the Perth Motorplex on Saturday night, Kingshott led on 1962 points over arch rival Williamson’s 1868.

Kingshott started p10 in the feature race and crossed the line in fifth, while Williamson had a barnstorming run from p24 to finish fourth.

As a result Kingshott now leads on 2102 points from Williamson’s 2010, with the WA-based series now taking a three-week recess.

Taylor Milling, who almost claimed his maiden sprintcar feature race last night after a great duel with race winner Madsen and second-placed McFadden, was third, and is still third overall in the series points on 1952.

Kaiden Manders, who started from pole and finished eighth, is still fourth on 1896, while Andrew Priolo, who started p25 and finished 19th, is still fourth, on 1804 points.

Brad Maiolo has moved up one spot to sixth, Jason Kendrick moved up one spot to seventh, Kris Coyle moved up one spot to eight, while Jack Williamson, a non-starter for the main event, has dropped from sixth to ninth.

Jamie Maiolo is still holding down 10th place.
