Treseder Goes Back to Back in Rotax Heavy

AKA press release

Kel Treseder earned back-to-back Australian Rotax Heavy Titles with a commanding win at the Sparco Rotax Nationals at VACC Park in Melbourne, Victoria today.

Treseder, who hails from Bundaberg in Queensland, started from third in the final and in the early laps was part of a three kart breakaway with fellow Queenslander William Yarwood and local ace Rick Pringle.

After six laps Treseder made a decisive move aboard his Kosmic kart, taking the lead and breaking away from his rivals to stretch a race-winning lead.

“I haven’t been racing as much this season so I really worked hard over the past fortnight to make sure we had the kart and engines working well,” said Treseder. “But more than anything, I had to get back in the kart, get back on the pace and do a lot of testing on long runs to make sure I was race fit to do a long, 21-lap final.

“This was a great event and I am so happy to get back-to-back national titles. This was a quality field and it was just so tough out there. It means a lot to beat those guys.”

Fastest qualifying Mike Godsell started back in 12th in the final after an incident in the Pre-Final. The Intrepid driver stormed through the field and was especially strong in the second half of the race, driving all the way up to second place, passing Pringle in the closing laps.

Pringle held on for third aboard his CRG, with Yarwood fourth and New South Welshman Andrew Torville fifth.
