An update from Fabian Morrell Racing

25/26 Wrap up

Queensland Stockcar Club Title meeting in Maryborough Speedway what a awesome track and it was setup so well for fast hard racing.

Friday night red eye flight from Perth to Brisbane this being my 3rd time doing this knowing it was going to be a dash to get the hire car and load up and go.
It starts off with the plane being delyaed by 1.5hrs 🙄. Finally land into Brisbane and the hire ute doesnt have a tow ball attached..... "come on i need one thing to go my way" we have another ute for you yass, but its empty going to take 15-30mins till its ready dammmm it.

Finally get to family house and load up ready to go.

Get to the track and car doesnt want to come off the trailer!!!! Whats going on here we just changed diff gears, so checked and they were fine but the fitting was touching the gear not allow it to turn. Get that sorted and cars off the trailer finally.

Heat 1, we draw 9th but due to a car not available we moved up to 7th. Good clean start first conrner go wide and collect the wall lol "ok so tracks not as wide as it looks" re-focused and managed to finish 4th.

Heat 2, starting pole clean start with a little bumping, 27 Jacob managed to get by and i followed him the rest of the race trying to get past with a little bumping but he proved way to skilled and i finished in 2nd.

Heat 3, Told i was sitting 2nd on points so the nervs kicked in. Starting in 6th
Position another clean start try to play it safe as i just need to finish the race. then in the first corner of the 2nd lap got abit loose and spun up and stalled the car. Couldnt manage to get it started again and the battery was going flat so that was it for heat 3.

Knowing i got a DNF for heat 3 i thought 100% didnt make podium but was announced 3rd place getter on the night unsure about the results had a couple chats with our teams but left it at the track.

Was contacted Monday morning that the Mylaps system had alotted points for DNF which is incorrect as i suspected i didnt get 3rd place i officially got 4th.

What a night of racing! 🔥 The atmosphere was electric, the cars were flying, and the competition was fierce from the very first green flag.
