Adam Gowans has once again taken victory in the Aussie Racing Car category for the third consecutive race at the Clipsal 500 in Adelaide.
A reverse top-ten grid start for Race 3 saw Gowans start from 10th but he quickly picked his way through the field and by lap four, had made his way to the lead.
From there, the former Karting Champion was never threatened as he cruised to the finish to secure his trio of Aussie Racing Car wins in Adelaide.
It was a similar scenario for Trent Young who picked up his third consecutive, second place finish in Race 3.
The New South Welshman shot off to a promising start from ninth on the grid, passing Gowans early, but couldn’t hold out the hard charging Toyota.
Keeping the series consistent, Maurice Masini mirrored his two rivals in front by securing his third consecutive, third place finish in the Aussie Racing Car series this weekend.
The 39 strong field had a fairly clean run with just two drivers failing to finish the seven lap race. One of which was Sean Carter who, while running in fifth, lost control at the infamous Turn 8 and backed his Hi-Tec Oils Cruze into the wall.
Just one race remains for the Aussie Racing Cars at the Clipsal 500 event with crews set to hit the track tomorrow at 8.45am local time for Race 4.
