Sammy Walsh been one of the local stand outs at the Tyrepower Parramatta City Raceway and with the tough American challenge Sammy has shown why he’s called “the gas man.”  But last Saturday night a lack of brakes saw his #92 Maxim being forced out of the 30 lap A Main leaving a disappointed Sam Walsh a spectator for most of the A Main race.

Sam qualified a little further back in position 19 in the early qualifying time trails but in heat 3 he simply “gassed up” his machine and took out an easy race victory. Drama hit when Sam returned into the pits with the rear end of his machine on fire, luckily the crash crew were quickly on hand putting out the fire. The team found it was a brake problem and while Sam was set to start the A Main out of position 14 he elected to start from the rear. With the lack of brakes Sam decided to retire back into the pits.

“The car was awesome and I’m disappointed after loosing brakes after the heat race. I had to retire in the Main due to the lack of brakes, I nearly hit Steve Kinser!”

Sammy and his “gasmen” wish to thank:
