Chris Cowling threaded the needle on a drive from mid-pack to complete a New Zealand Super Saloon Grand Prix hat-trick at Baypark Speedway on Saturday night.
Cowling, from Tauranga, started 11th in the 25-lap Grand Prix final and, after moving forward to join the lead battle, he leapt from third into the lead with a single move.
Nelson s Ian Burson and Tauranga s Scott Hayward were swapping the lead when Cowling split the pair. I d started to run the middle. Burs was on the bottom and Scotty moved up high so I was able to drive straight between the two of them, Cowling said.
