Round 7 Qualifying, Dale's final weekend racing in his Rookie season of the NZV8s Championship and Dale put in a great drive, qualifying in 10th position. That's a great way to start the weekend, the first time he's made it into the Top 10 qualifying this season. The Team SCG racing crew are very pleased, understandably, after putting in a lot of hard hours making changes to the car's setup over the past few days.
It was a nail-biting finish to the second (Top 20) Qualifying session though. Dale was sitting in 15th place right up until the last minute. The chequered flag was coming out to signal the end of the session and Dale put in a flying lap jumping up to take the 10th place spot on the board (to much cheering & back slapping in the Team SCG pits).
Dale couldn't make any more headway in the 3rd (Top 10) qualifying session though, and kept his 10th place spot when the car all but ran out of gas with a few minutes to go.
Everyone is looking forward to an action-packed first race in a few hours time.
Dale's fastest qualifying time was 1:01.70.
