06/12/2009 - TROUBLED NIGHT FOR SCHEUERLE AT TPCR

Disappointment was on the face of Queensland Driver Andrew Scheuerle after missing the transfer into the A Main by two positions. Transferring into the A Main was within Scheuerle's reach as he started the B Main in 5th position however after a frustrating start, Scheuerle lost three positions and spent the remainder of the 14 laps trying to chase down enough cars to transfer. Realising the night was over, Scheuerle & the Team headed back to Queensland where they will now wait to race until the 26th of December in Adelaide for the start of their Speedweek campaign.

In a field of over 50 cars, Scheuerle was second quick in hot laps however when the Time Trials began, Scheuerle was in the second last group and timed in 35th quick. 

The Q25 Ausdeck Patios & Roofing Maxim won both heats giving Scheuerle maximum points which were valuable considering his points from the time trial were so low. Scheuerle started 5th in the B Main and unfortunately struggled to carry momentum in the car until the final five laps finishing 6th missing the transfer into the Feature Race.

The Ausdeck Team will now park the transporter until Boxing Day where the team heads to Adelaide to continue the World Series trail and start Speedweek where they are hoping for positive results for the start of 2010.

"We rolled into Parramatta with new torsion bars, new shocks and a new setup to try because last time we were at TPCR we couldn't make the car work and we were crashed out so we ran out of laps to try anything new. I guess, we all know, you can't go into a World Series round trying to test setups, it's difficult and if they don't work, you really feel it. There's too many cars at TPCR to stuff up time trials and that's what we did. It's disappointing but we're looking ahead and we're focused on Speedweek."

The Ausdeck Patios & Roofing race transporter is getting new sponsors added to the artwork and some changes made to the design so keep any eye out for the new look transporter as the crew head to Adelaide in a few weeks.

The brand new crew polo shirts and kids crew shirts are available both online and at the race tracks so grab yours now before they sell out! These crew shirts sell so fast and we've just received the new shipment so get in quick for Christmas!!
