Feeney extends series lead in chaotic Townsville finale Dunlop Super2 Series By James Pavey
Broc Feeney continued on his merry way on the streets of Townsville with a crushing Race 2 victory.
It marked Feeney’s third win in four starts this season, with the Triple Eight Race Engineering driver extending his Dunlop Super2 Series lead.
Tim Blanchard was five seconds adrift in second, with Jayden Ojeda 1.7s back in third.
Feeney led away from pole and quickly edged away from the chasing pack.
However, his charge was stifled almost immediately; on lap 2, Triple Eight teammate Angelo Mouzouris was turned around by an out-of-control Aaron Seton.

Climbing Australian motorsport’s biggest mountain – Bathurst’s Mount Panorama – in a $500,00 V8 Supercar was a “pinch yourself” moment for Sunshine Coast carpenter Jack Sipp.
“To be finally sitting there on the grid in a Supercar was a pretty special moment,” Sipp, 25, said.
“I’ve watched it (Bathurst motor racing) since I was a young fellow.”
He was behind the wheel of a car formerly driven by Supercars legend Jamie Whincup when he lined up for Eggleston Motorsport in the Super2 Series race at the weekend.
“Obviously it was my first time there, so I had to do the right thing and get through the weekend and get in as many laps as I could and bring the car home in one piece,” he said.
