Overview

  • Buddy Kofoid topped qualifying, won his heat, started on the front row and prevailed in a turbulent Night 2 feature at Perth Motorplex.
  • The race included heavy flips for Kerry Madsen and Kris Coyle, who were reported okay after a red-flag incident that sent Coyle’s fuel cell over the Turn 3 catch fence.
  • Corey Day, the Night 1 winner, led early in a fierce duel before slipping to fourth, with Jock Goodyer finishing second and Dayne Kingshott third.
  • Kyle Larson rebounded to fifth on Night 2 after a flat right-rear tire limited him to 17th in the opener, where Day passed Kaiden Manders to win.
  • The High Limit International concludes Tuesday with a winner-takes-all AUD $110,000 payout, described as the largest first prize in Australian sprint car history.
