Round 4 – Winton
Race 1 – 1st
Rain lashed Winton and it forced the majority of the field to sit out the race.
Race 2 – 1st
Weather conditions improved and the #8 OzTruck racked up another win.
Race 3 – 1st
Brett’s race almost ended when before it began when he ended up pointed the wrong way and in the grass on the formation lap but a short tow got him going again and he eventually claimed the win from a wet track loving Richard Herring.
Race 4 – 2nd
It was fitting that the weather improved for the championship finale and while Scott Nind won by 4.1 seconds, Brett had a big enough points gap on Robert Marchese and Scott Nind to win the championship.
