While touring Americans Tyler Courtney, Cory Eliason, Carson Macedo and others were fulfilling their contractual commitments on the West and East Coast speedways during the holiday season, many of the Australian sprint car stars were running the lucrative Southern Speedweek in South Australia and Victoria — the mecca of Australian sprint car racing. Veal led the early laps of the race before McFadden delighted his fans, running to the top. Noting that he had a new car and chassis, a new team and crew, he added: “We are running against the best in the country who are all at the top of their game — the likes of Goodyer, and Veal and McHugh are world class, so this is bloody rewarding for all the crew.”. With the concluding round at Warrnambool’s Premier Speedway scheduled for New Year’s Day night, Goodyer, Veal and McHugh were in contention for the series title. The Launceston, Tasmania, driver claimed the series from Veal, McHugh, Dillon and Randall.
