10/01/2010 - SCHEUERLE FINISHES 9TH IN DRAMA FILLED 20K TO WIN

Andrew Scheuerle has walked away happy with his result in the 20k to win at BIS last night regardless of the events that followed the race. As Scheuerle began to catch the two cars in front of him and passed them both putting him in 7th position with ten laps remaining, Schatz meanwhile passed him the lap prior and the rules state when the leader passes, technically you are a lap down. The yellows came on and Scheuerle was forced to go behind the two cars he had already passed putting him back in 10th position. He raced hard and raced into position 8 however, due to the rules, after the race he was again put back a spot and eventually finished in 9th. PHOTO: STEPHEN PICKERING

"It's not the ideal situation however apart from all of that, I am happy with how the car went. We moved forward and we passed some of these guys who started in the top 4 or 5 so I'm extremely pleased. 50 laps is a long race and we had the car setup to get in the top 5 or 6 in the end but because we were put back, we had to keep passing these guys we had already passed and then in the end, it didn't matter because they got put back infront of us for the final result. I've raced for long enough to know, it's racing. I'm not phased. I know we've got a car capable of winning again so I'm pleased. We're ready for tonight's A Main that's for sure." Shirls said.

The team have struggled over the past few weeks with engine problems and after being forced to use a different engine they have now found the sweet spot and they're ready for some good results. "We're there, but we're not quite there just yet. We're working on it and we'll get it soon" said Crew Chief Glenno Inglis after last night's A Main.

The Ausdeck Racing Team are travelling to Toowoomba tonight for PWWSS where Scheuerle will be at his former home track and hopes to leave with a smile on his face. It will be an interesting round with the top few drivers on points fighting it out to keep their World Series Championship dream alive.
