Another black cat moment for the Stephenson crew with a very unusual looking clutch failure. Despite the setback others chipped in with the R&R work only missing one race of the super tight schedule. Well done making your way through the field and the best of luck as you head over the border to take on Sandown first weekend in March !

Round 1 of the SA Circuit Excel Series is done and dusted!
First time back in the car and we qualified in 22nd with a time of 1:29.8. Not a horrific time considering the dramas we were battling with the car but still not happy with the position.
Race 1 - We got a good start and got up to 15th before the end of the first lap and the car felt good and had some pace! Unfortunately, the gods of motorsport had different ideas for us and our clutch failed quite dramatically on lap 2, sending us to last and DNF'ing the race.

We had some incredible help from a few people and we managed to get the gearbox off, replace the clutch and re-assemble just as the 2nd race started, so sadly we did not take part.

Race 3 - We started from 30th position and after 10 laps made it to 22nd.

Race 4 - Saw us gain another few spots making it back up to 17th by the end of a short safety car period.

Looking back on the weekend, I was very disappointed, after taking some bad advice and running a taller diff it made it bloody hard to pass cars and get any speed out of some corners. The car handled well and with a few tweaks could be even better!
There are a long list of jobs to get done on the car but for now we will swap gearboxes, fix up a few things and head to Sandown next weekend to take on the Victorians!
We will be back out for Rnd 2 of the SA series with a few extra changes I think.

Lastly I must say a huge thank you to my Dad and Partner for all their help on the weekend, as well as the numerous people offering help, tools and advice, could not have got back out there without you! Massive thank you also must go to our always supportive sponsors!

Well done Mitch, recovering a solid result on a stocker engine after a unlucky practice on Friday. As always it’s great to see the excel community get behind fellow competitors when the chips are down!

Round 1 of the Excel SA State Championship is all wrapped up. The start of the racing year didn’t go how we planned as after one lap on the Friday practice our engine blew up leaving us with no time for practice. But luckily David Shaw was able to give us a replacement engine so we were able to head back to the MVA Racing workshop and get the change done with the help from David Shaw and mike Vidau.
On race day we qualified 19th and on race one I flew off the track at turn two and finished in 22. But as the day went on I worked my way closer and closer to the front and ended up in 12th by the end of the day.

Not the weekend we had hoped for but I was happy just to be out there considering our issues the day before that put us on the back foot.
Thanks to all my sponsors major LJ Hooker Midcoast, Miller electrical, Shirvington Wines, MV Automatics. Thanks to my team MVA Racing and to all my teammates.
Can’t wait to get back out on track again ... See more
