2017 - USA DRIVERS STREET SEDAN MATCH RACEAs part of the USA Invasion tour the Collie RDA programmed a 3 car match race between Steve Francis driving the Paul Joss car, Jason Fitzgerald in the Josh Martinelli machine and Devin Moran jumping into Jake Blights Commodore.
The suggestion of doing this for a bit of fun soon went out the window as Francis and Fitzgerald got together on the first start, causing Francis to spin causing damage to all 3 cars, At the re-start Francis was sent to the rear minus the front bumper on his car.
As the green lights once again came on Moran lead the trio away and soon build up a healthy lead, Ultra smooth and hiking the inside front wheel Moran set about lap times in the 21 second bracket, close to street sedans best times at Collie Speedway.
At the conclusion of the 6 lap event Moran came home with the win with a best lap time of 21.690, Francis was second with a best lap of 22.520 and Fitzgerald third with a best lap time of 22.576.

|
Street Sedan fans were treated to a double header at the Collie Speedway on Friday the 20th of January with the running of the Collie Speedway Street Sedan Championship which was also the running of the last round of the South West Championship.
Previous to this other rounds were held at Bunbury, Manjimup and Margaret River speedways.
Leading into tonight there are currently 38 drivers listed on the South West Championship points score, In position one is Peter Herbert on 404 points, leading Collies own Ethan Genev on 383 points, Damien Amato on 375, 4th Wayne Thomson 363, 5th Alex Williams 278, 6th Matt Amato 239, 7th David Fall 225, 8th Jake Blight 194, 9th Paul Briggs 182 and rounding out the top ten James Westerman on 179 points.
Peter set good pace through the heats to strenghten his points lead into an unbeatable position when mechanical problems slowed the car, As it was, his lead was big enough that he could not loose the overall championship, a 2nd to Mick Hamon feature time was enough to wrap up the series.
