Another Biggie: Vic Country Series, Rnd 4

by Andrew Hayes, AHR Media

The Hamilton Karting Club has successfully hosted Round 4 of the DPE Victorian Country Series, which incorporated the 23^rd annual Handbury Cup.

189 entries took on the undulating Buckley Park Circuit over the two days, with qualifying held in sunshine on Saturday afternoon. Whilst most expected it to be wet all day on Sunday, the opening round of heats were held in cool, dry conditions. The changeover point was the Cadet 9 heat two, where a mixed bag of tyres rolled out the grid, by the next event all drivers were on wet tyres.

The event ran smoothly, and there was some stunning performances, along with the usual tales of heart break.

CADET 9 (12 Entries)

Cadet 9 was first out for qualifying, and when the results shook out it was Mathew Basso on pole position (34.973), almost three tenths clear of second place. Basso was joined at the head of the queue by fellow series front runners, William Calleja, Ewan Anderson and Chelsea Humphrey. SA’s Mitchell Burgemeister setting the fifth fastest time.

Heat one of Cadet 9 was the opening event of Sunday’s proceedings and despite most anticipating a wet track, conditions were dry. Basso drove away from the field in the opening event to win comfortably by 8 seconds. Anderson was Basso’s nearest rival until a late race setback had him in fifth place. Calleja grabbed the opportunity to slide past for second spot. A last lap, last corner battle between Humphrey and Aston Hill resulted in Anderson grabbing third, ahead of Humphrey and Burgemeister.

FASTEST LAP: Mathew Basso 35.424

Rain fell as the Cadet 9’s were on the grid for their second heat, with a mixture of wet and dry shod karts leaving the grid. The conditions may have changed, but the class of the field was still Basso as he again recorded a substantial 7.5 second win. The win was made all the more impressive by the fact that Basso was on slick tyres in the rain. Not to be outdone, second meeting racer Lewis Kucina used his wet tyres to his advantage as he overcome inexperience and the rain to escalate to second from tenth on the grid. Although his charge came to an end, and he dropped down the field, he showed real glimpses for the future. Second eventually went to the first of the wet weather shod karts in Humphrey, ahead of Anderson also on slicks. Calleja finished fourth ahead of a much improved Cayden Humphrey.

FASTEST LAP: Chelsea Humphrey 48.591

Anderson grabbed the lead at the start of the final, however it was just two laps before Basso regained the ascendancy. Basso went on to win and complete the clean sweep, and despite a late race spin in the esses, he lapped all karts up to third. Anderson and Calleja duked it out for the remaining spots on the podium, and after some dicing Anderson moved clear to finish second ahead of Calleja in third. Chelsea Humphrey home in fourth, ahead of Hill who finally got the top five he missed out on in heat one.

FASTEST LAP: Mathew Basso 48.068

1^st Mathew Basso (Oak), 2^nd Ewan Anderson (Port), 3^rd William Calleja (Oak)

VIC COMBINED MEDIUM (15 Entries)

Vic Combined Medium looked like a strong class on paper, with a few inclusions for this round adding to the mix of the usual contenders. One of those inclusions was SA’s Daniel Boorman, who promptly grabbed pole position (32.322). Hot on his hammer and less than two hundredths off was Remo Luciani, who had been the form driver of the class in the series. Another strong qualifying effort saw Phil Zentai claim third ahead of Andrew Harvey and Barry Clough.

Boorman made the best of the Heat One start, taking the lead in the early running. By the middle of the race Luciani made his move for the lead, and continued on to win the heat. Boorman stayed right in his shadow, fighting off Harvey to take second place ahead of Zentai, who had a relatively lonely race. Round 1 Winner Alex Baker and Clough staged an epic battle for the duration of the race, swapping spots regularly and never far from one another. Clough eventually got the better of the duel to clinch fourth over Baker.

FASTEST LAP: Remo Luciani (32.305)

The rain had hit by the time heat two got underway, and unlike the Cadets, all drivers were on wet tyres. Luciani was the master of the class at Cobden in the rain, and he showed that kind of form once again as he recorded a 4.9 second win. Some of the other wet weather specialists began to emerge as the field was reshuffled. Baker and Mick Angwin moving up to second and third as they handled the conditions better than some others. Harvey was home in fourth, ahead of Vern Kranz, who definitely likes the rain.

FASTEST LAP: Remo Luciani 37.542

The final went green without Zentai and Boorman, the two early front runners both out of the running. It mattered little as Luciani romped to his third consecutive final win, this one by 12 seconds. Second place belonged to Angwin, who would be pleased after he had ran the earlier rounds in the Heavy class. Kranz used his wet weather skill set to his advantage again to take the final spot on the podium. Mal Mason was also speedy in the conditions, and took until the last lap to overhaul Baker, those two home in fourth and fifth respectively.

FASTEST LAP: Remo Luciani 38.161

1^st Remo Luciani (Wimm), 2^nd Mick Angwin (Ball), 3^rd Vern Kranz (Oak)

KA4 Junior Light (10 Entries)

Christian Cowie once again proved he is the master of qualifying in KA4 Junior Light, adding another pole position to his collection. Cowie’s time of 31.582 was 3 tenths clear of last round winner Matthew Domaschenz and Jake Santalucia. Harrison Campbell and Jarred Farrell rounded out the top five.

Heat one belonged to SA’s Cowie, as he led from start to finish to win by 5.2 seconds. The battle for second wasn’t so clear cut, as Domaschenz and Santalucia went at it all race long, before Santalucia got the upper hand on the final circulation. Campbell, Jake Krasna and Farrell were all very evenly matched in this race, with fastest laps within a thousandth. At the chequer it was Campbell and Krasna that filled the top five.

FASTEST LAP: Christian Cowie 31.829

Heat two was significant as it changed the trajectory of the weekend, as rain and Domaschenz arrived simultaneously. Domaschenz was supreme in the conditions, winning by 10.7 seconds and lapping 8 tenths faster than the nearest competitor. Krasna made a decisive move on the opening lap, moving from fourth to second. He would hold that position to the flag, having a comfortable buffer over Santalucia in third. Cowie had to settle for fourth, only just ahead of Cadet 12 graduate Brocklan Parker.

FASTEST LAP: Matthew Domaschenz 37.049

More of the same in the final, as Domaschenz proved to be in a league of his own, winning by 15 seconds despite battling a head cold. Krasna put a real stamp on his weekend to remain the best of the rest, and raced to a very credible second place. Krasna again had a comfortable margin over third, finishing 11 seconds ahead of the impressive newcomer Parker. Campbell and Farrell completed the top 5, the last karts on the lead lap and some 30 seconds adrift.

FASTEST LAP: Matthew Domaschenz 37.088

1^st Matthew Domaschenz (Geel), 2^nd Jake Krasna (Mild), 3^rd Brocklan Parker (Port)

CADET 12 (25 Entries)

Whilst not being oversubscribed like the previous round at Cobden, Cadet 12 had one of the bigger fields of the weekend, and was littered with potential threats. As qualifying drew to a thrilling conclusion, SA’s Ben Holliday looked to have taken pole position. However another part of the story was yet to be written as Angus Hall snatched the pole (33.879) by just one thousandth of a second as the session ended. Behind Hall and Holliday, Leo Iannella and Xavier Avramides were also within a tenth of the pole time, with Ryan Newborn not much further off in fifth.

The opening heat was a lights to flag run for Hall, as he made the most of the dry conditions to win by a small margin. Avramides and Holliday battled on the opening lap, but settled in that order for the rest of the race. Iannella was another to hold his place throughout, finishing in fourth ahead of Tyce Hodge, who moved up a position to fifth.

FASTEST LAP: Xavier Avramides 33.866

Turmoil at the opening corner of heat two, as Holliday was sent spinning into the catch trap in the now wet conditions. The big benefactors being Iannella and Toby Dvorak, as they made their way to the front of the field. Iannella prevailed to take the win by 3.6 seconds, ahead of Dvorak, who had remarkably come from tenth to second on the opening lap. Hall consolidated to take third ahead of the twins Cadel Ambrose and Hodge.

FASTEST LAP: Leo Iannella 43.933

Iannella proved to be the master of the conditions once again in the final, opening a decent margin before cruising to victory by 5.3 seconds in a very complete performance. Ambrose continued his march up the order to snare second ahead of Hall, who drove well all weekend. Fourth to the flag was Ethan Briggs, after a staggering drive from sixteenth at the start. Holliday resumed his place in the top five, after starting in ninth place.

FASTEST LAP: Leo Iannella 44.060

1^st Leo Iannella (GKCSA), 2^nd Cadel Ambrose (Oak), 3^rd Angus Hall (Oak)

TAG HEAVY (8 Entries)

The King brothers added another to their list of Tag Heavy pole positions this year, this time it was Adam going fastest (31.379), just three hundredths ahead of Scott. Nicola Schmidt and Aaron Jackson were next in the queue, just ahead of Nicholas Roberts, as just seven tenths separated the field.

Heat one belonged to Adam King, as he made the most of his pole position start to lead every lap on his way to the win. Scott was right on his rear bumper for the entire race, but was unable to overhaul his brother. Jackson set the fastest lap of the race on his way to third, ahead of the duel for fourth between Schmidt and Beau Humphrey.

FASTEST LAP: Aaron Jackson 31.574

Scott King took just two laps to assert himself on heat two, moving ahead of Jackson and Adam before cruising to a 1.7 second victory. The wet conditions were definitely to Scott’s liking, and he looked comfortable at the front. Adam, Jackson and Schmidt were spread out for second, third and fourth, but Ray Dumesny got the better of Roberts to round out the top 5.

FASTEST LAP: Scott King 36.563

The final started dramatically, turn one contact between Adam King and Jackson, saw King plummet to the rear of the field. What ensued was reminiscent of Portland where he charged his way back to the podium. Third would ultimately be his result, as Scott King drove to a clinical victory, winning by 10.6 seconds. It marked a third consecutive round win for Scott. Splitting the brothers for second was Schmidt, who performed well and showed real emotion to finally clinch a VCS podium. Jackson was fourth across the stripe, however a post race penalty slotted him in behind Dumesny in fifth place.

FASTEST LAP: Scott King 36.881

1^st Scott King (Port), 2^nd Nikola Schmidt (GKCV), 3^rd Adam King (Port)

KA3 Junior (8 Entries)

KA3 Junior looked open for the taking this weekend, and it was no coincidence that the top 5 in qualifying had all recorded podium finishes in this year’s series. Ethan Brown put himself in an ideal position by taking pole position (31.428). Jaxon Johnstone, Bronson Boult and Ethan Bray were all within two tenths of pole, whilst Isaac Woodhouse was further back in fifth.

Pole position agreed with Brown in heat one, as he drove smart to record a 1.7 second win, bucking the trend of his epic comeback drives from further down the field. Despite many battles during the race, the top five remained the same, with Johnstone, Boult, Bray and Woodhouse filling those positions again.

FASTEST LAP: Ethan Brown (31.561)

The pecking order got a bit of a shake up in heat two as conditions worsened. Johnstone made the best of the conditions to grab the heat win ahead of Boult and Brown as the top three spread out. Samuel Gibson made his first appearance in the top five for the round, racing from seventh to fourth, finishing just ahead of Bray in fifth.

FASTEST LAP: Jaxon Johnstone 36.555

Johnstone was untouchable in the wet final, adding his second round win of the season as he won by a staggering seventeen seconds. His drive was superb and sat rightfully up there as one of the drives of the weekend. Boult had a consistent weekend to again stand on the podium with second place, ahead of Gibson, who recorded his first VCS podium for the 2019 season. The two Ethans, Brown and Bray rounded out the top five.

FASTEST LAP: Jaxon Johnstone 36.473

1^st Jaxon Johnstone (Warrn), 2^nd Bronson Boult (MGKC), 3^rd Samuel Gibson (Oak)

VIC COMBINED MASTERS (15 Entries)

A dominating force in the Masters class had emerged over the previous two VCS rounds, and it was therefore no surprise to see Phil Smith top the timesheets in qualifying (32.035) at Hamilton. The margin was more of a surprise, as Smith found himself four tenths ahead of Ash Mitchell in second place.  Alan Roberts and Leon Forrest both ran strongly in third and fourth, whilst Andrew Stubbs was remarkably fifth after a huge practice shunt forced him back into his old kart.

Smith was clearly in his own league in the opening heat, as he crushed his rivals in a supreme drive that netted a 7.3 second victory. Roberts held second position in the early running, until contact with third placed Mitchell resulted in Forrest sneaking through on both and Roberts running up the grass.  Mitchell would finish third after Forrest held him off till the end, however Roberts slumped to thirteenth. Vern Kranz and Murray Swayn came from the middle of the field to complete the top five.

FASTEST LAP: Phil Smith 32.178

Even when the rain hit, it was still Smith heading the field in heat two, winning by a smaller margin but again setting the fastest lap. Mitchell found the second place that he had craved in heat one, finishing ahead of Matt Crane. Crane started fourteenth, recovering from a wiring issue that saw him not complete a lap in qualifying and a lost battery in heat one. Forrest held on for fourth place ahead of Ron Taylor, who had also come from the clouds after not having his transponder on in heat one.

FASTEST LAP: Phil Smith 37.010

The big question heading into the final was if anyone could deny Smith a clean sweep of the weekend and his third round win of the season. The record books will say no, but it was very nearly a different story. Smith drove superbly once again, but by mid race he came under fire from a rampaging Crane, who had started seventh. Crane looked to have the speed to break Smith’s reign on the class, but ran wide as he mounted his first attempt to pass. Such was his speed that he caught back up to Smith by the time they set off for the last lap, but had to settle for second behind the benchmark driver of the weekend. Forrest and Mitchell were together again, this time it worked out in the favour of Forrest, who grabbed the final podium spot. The unusually quiet John Page snuck into the top five for the first time in the final.

FASTEST LAP: Matthew Crane 36.980

1^st Phil Smith (GKCV), 2^nd Matthew Crane (Ham), 3^rd Leon Forrest (Wimm)

TAG LIGHT (15 Entries)

Qualifying was very tight in Tag Light, the top 13 karts separated by less than a second. When the chequered dropped, it was Will Carroll at the top of the timesheets (30.774), just 2 thousandths ahead of James Sera in second place. Third place was a good start for Harley Benson’s first race of the year, finishing just ahead of Nathan Williams and Matt Wall.

Carroll got away well to lead the early stages of heat one in overcast conditions, before Sera made his move and took over at the front and was never headed. Carroll continued his strong form to finish second ahead of a battle pack that included Kai Allen, Jordan Rae and Harley Benson.

FASTEST LAP: Harley Benson 31.121

Heat two in wet conditions mixed up the order as it had done in many of the proceeding classes. Opening heat winner Sera was a notable absentee as the lights went out. Carroll again best out of the blocks, but the lead was again short lived, as Rae moved to the lead on lap 2. Allen plummeted down the order at the same time, dropping from third to eleventh on lap 3. Rae continued on to win, despite an engine misfire that threatened to derail his campaign.  Maverick Benson emerged in second place after working his way forward from sixth, laying down the biggest challenge to Rae. Curt Sera was another driver on the march, moving from seventh to the third to finish ahead of the always hard charging Luke Fong and Carroll.

FASTEST LAP: Kai Allen 36.957

Carroll once again to the lead at the start of the final, but this time he went on with the job to secure the first win since his comeback to karting. Mav Benson overcame Rae in the opening laps, which proved to be the start of the decline for Rae, as mechanical issues dropped him down the order to tenth. Benson held down second place until the middle of the race before Allen steamed through with genuine pace to take second. Benson’s challenges didn’t end there, as Fong threw the kitchen sink at him on the last lap, culminating in a last corner drag race to the line. Benson home in third, just ahead of a gallant Fong and the consistent Williams.

FASTEST LAP Kai Allen 36.766

1^st Will Carroll (Warrn), 2^nd Kai Allen (MGKC), 3^rd Maverick Benson (Ham)

KA4 Junior Heavy (18 Entries)

KA4 Junior Heavy had been won by the same driver at each of the previous three rounds, and his absence at Hamilton had several candidates ready to fill the top spot. The driver to put his hand up first was Johnny Hill, who had been unlucky not to have won a round this year. His pole time of 32.821 was just a tenth ahead of two hard chargers, Max Fahey and Braden Clark.  Seth Burton and Nathan Pozo also looking for a part of the action in fourth and fifth.

The action was tight in heat one as Hill and Clark went to war, swapping places and also several momentum switches. Hill eventually got the better of the dice, but it was just a taste of what was to come for those two drivers. Burton and Maximus Chudasko swapped positions twice for the race, once at the start and the other on the penultimate lap. Burton did enough for third, Chudasko in fourth ahead of Jay Racovalis.

FASTEST LAP: Johnny Hill 32.933

The wet conditions did nothing to separate, nor alter the front running duo, as again Hill and Clark raced hard at the front of the field. Hill taking the honours over Clark once again, as Liam Pollard moved into the top three as the conditions came to him. Third was a position held by Chudasko early on in the race until a loose rear bar ended his campaign. Racovalis and Toby Waghorn spent plenty of this race together and switching positions as they worked their way up the order, Racovalis fourth ahead of Waghorn at the line.

FASTEST LAP: Max Fahey 38.402

The final rolled out with the promise of a new round winner, and it was near impossible to pick a winner. As they had done all weekend, Hill and Clark headed the pack and fought tooth and nail for the elusive win. After lap after lap of challenges and manoeuvres, it looked as though Clark had made the decisive move on lap nine and was on his way to victory, however Hill had other ideas. On the second last lap Hill put a move on Clark that would define the weekend and also hand him the clean sweep of all sessions. Clark was admirable in second in what has been the standout weekend of his series. Fahey did as he always does and raced back into contention after some misfortune in the heats, landing in third after another stirring run. Pollard and Burton capped solid weekends with fourth and fifth.

FASTEST LAP: Braden Clark 38.200

1^st Johnny Hill (GKCV), 2^nd Braden Clark (Oak), 3^rd Max Fahey (SWest)

VIC COMBINED LIGHT (28 Entries)

Combined Light was the biggest field of the weekend, and sat right on the bubble of oversubscribing, when qualifying got rolling it was Andrew Sotiropoulos continuing his grip on the class. Remarkably, with Sotiropoulos’ pole time of 31.582, the next seventeen drivers were within a second of the mark. Terry Rankin continued his strong Cobden form to sit second, just ahead of the Warrnambool pole man Lachie Swayn. Regular podium finisher Jono McKean posted the fourth fastest time, just ahead of the defending series champion Joseph Clough.

Rankin made the most of the start of heat one, but it wasn’t long before Swayn made his move and managed the race from there. McKean got by Rankin on lap four, holding onto that position until the end as Rankin slipped down the order to fifth. Sotiropoulos crossed the line third but was later penalised and demoted to sixteenth, handing defending Hamilton winner Derrick Rodgers third place and Rankin a spot to fourth. Cobden pole winner Dave Menzel rounded out the top five.

FASTEST LAP: Andrew Sotiropoulos 31.690

McKean proved his credentials as a serious contender with a stellar run to victory in heat two. Right on his rear bumper was Rankin, whose improvement has been hasty. Rodgers was comfortable in the slippery conditions as he once again held down third place ahead of the drive of the race from Alex Ryan, who had started in twelfth. Swayn didn’t have his usual pace in this one, but held on for fifth place.

FASTEST LAP: Terry Rankin 36.329

The big field set of for the final in the hands of pole sitter McKean, who looked comfortable at the head of the queue. By lap six though, Sotiropoulos had charged his way from eighth to take over the lead. From there McKean gave chase as the two picked through the lapped traffic, also bringing Rankin into the pursuit of the leader as the race went on. At the flag though, it was Sotiropoulos taking his third win of the season, ahead of McKean and Rankin. Rodgers completed another strong weekend in fourth, whilst Ryan proved he’s one to watch in fifth.

FASTEST LAP: Andrew Sotiropoulos 36.453

1^st Andrew Sotiropoulos (Oak), 2^nd Jono McKean (Warrn), 3^rd Terry Rankin (Warrn)

KA3 Senior Light (20 Entries)

KA3 Senior Light has only seen two round winners this season, so it was only fitting that Nathan Williams and Jack Bell were both involved in one of the more dramatic finishes to qualifying for the day. Bell looked to be set to grab pole position as he entered the pits, only to be toppled by a last ditch effort from Williams. The top nineteen drivers were within a second of Williams’ time (31.267). Bell, Joel MacPherson and Nik Ryan were all within a tenth of the pole, with Jobe Stewart a tenth further back.

Heat one saw many of the drivers retain their positions lights to flag, with minimal overtaking after the early laps. The exception to that was Bell and MacPherson, who traded places several times before Bell drew clear for the opening win. McPherson held onto second ahead of Williams, whilst Ryan and Stewart held sway in fourth and fifth for the distance.

FASTEST LAP: Joel MacPherson 31.375

The start of heat two in the rain looked to be more of the same as Bell and MacPherson led the field in the early stages, although this time in a line of stern. This all changed on lap eight as Stewart rounded up both of the leaders in the one lap to snatch the win away. Bell home in second, MacPherson third ahead of Ryan and Williams, who both had lonely races after the start.

FASTEST LAP: Jobe Stewart 36.104

The Final was a very intense race, as the combination of the weather and slower karts threatened to influence the result. But for the third consecutive round, it was Bell who did the business, finishing just ahead of MacPherson. Bell complemented the courtesy of the lapped drivers post race, after they had noticeably made it easy for the faster karts. Stewart made it three podiums for his three VCS rounds this year by taking the chequer in third place. Ryan was a contender all weekend in an improved showing, and fourth was a solid result. Winston Smith also had his best run of the weekend in the final, clinching a top five finish.

FASTEST LAP: Joel MacPherson 35.928

1^st Jack Bell (Oak), 2^nd Joel MacPherson (Oak), 3^rd Jobe Stewart (Port)

KA3 SENIOR MEDIUM (15 Entries)

KA3 Senior Medium again had good numbers as the class continues to build, importantly injecting a fresh new group of youngsters into the field this season. One of those young tyros, who has been on the podium at every round is Taine Venables, and he put the first marker down for pole position (31.641). Defending KA4 Heavy champion Daniel Hookway put himself on the front row, just ahead of Cobden winner Mitch Mackay. The unashamed Hamilton kerb lover Aaron Jackson snared fourth, ahead of Todd Chambers.

Venables let his intentions be known with a commanding lights to chequer win in the opening heat. Mackay got the better of Hookway at the start, and they held those positions to the flag in a largely uneventful race. Chris Thomas jumped up to fourth at the start, and finished there, ahead of Chambers who had overcome Jackson, who slipped to ninth by the end of the race.

FASTEST LAP: Taine Venables (31.818)

Heat two got underway and again it was Venables at the head of the queue, leading the opening three laps before it began to become apparent that tyre condition was an issue for the youngster. Jackson was the first to swoop, holding the top spot until Thomas came on strong towards the end to grab the lead on the penultimate lap. Thomas the winner ahead of Jackson, Scott King using his wet weather skill to move up to third. Jackson Hodgetts was also ascending, putting some nice laps together to move from eighth to fourth. Venables banking some handy points with his fifth place finish.

FASTEST LAP: Chris Thomas 36.352

The final race of the day and the final for KA3 Medium got underway with Thomas leading the field away. And after what could be considered a dry spell by his high standards, Thomas broke through to win in a calculated and classy drive. Mackay jumped from eighth to third in the opening two laps, and eventually got the better of Hookway, after the latter had held down second place early. Jackson and King exchanged places on lap seven, Jackson getting the upper hand in the battle for fourth and fifth.

FASTEST LAP: Mitch Mackay 36.302

1^st Chris Thomas (Geel), 2^nd Mitch Mackay (Swest), 3^rd Daniel Hookway (Warrn)
