Qld can claim to have an Australian Champion sidecarcross team for the first time since 1957 if the record books are correct.
Jamie McMurdo and Wayne Hollaway riding the RT2 Wasp Yamaha 750 of Ron Chadwick have taken a clean sweep of the National titles held at Wyaralong circuit near Boonah in South East Qld.
The last Qld team to win such a title was the well known speedway outfit rider Ron Johnson, who won that title at the Amberley circuit in '57 riding a Vincent to beat his arch rival Sandy McRae the racing on a Triumph or so the reports say.
McMurdo and Hollaway showed too much skill and speed to cleansweep the 3 races and even left the line last in the final heat so they could film the race on their helmet cam, knowing they only had to complete that race to take the title. They did however make their way all the way to the front to clean up in fine fashion.
Congrats to all who made the trip and to those that didn't-too bad - you missed the best track in Australia-bar none-and a fantastic event all round.
