Formula 500's WA- Hooper Again!



Tom Hooper has continued his dominance of recent weeks, adding another feature win and the Perth Motorplex Track Championship to his resume after his recent WA Title win.
Hooper was dominant in the feature, leading every lap of the fifteen lap affair in front of a good crowd for the Perth Motorplex Grand Finale Gold Cup event. Hooper eventually went on and crossed the line just 0.545 seconds ahead of second placed Luke Nardini, rounding out a solid season for the Narrogin local. Mark House also continued his good run, recording another podium finish, his third for the season at the Motorplex.
The opening heat of the night was also an all the way win to Hooper, defeating Troy Johnson by 2.3 seconds, with Shane Andersson in third.
Heat two was a big win to Mark House, leading the whole race and crossing the line over four seconds ahead of Hooper, with Brock Nanovich. The final heat race was another all the way win, this time to Glenn Carstairs crossing the line 1.632 seconds ahead of Luke Nardini and Chris Dymock.
Courtesy of his feature race win and consistency throughout the season, Tom Hooper also has won the Perth Motorplex Track Championship, defeating second placed Troy Johnson by twenty nine points. Luke Nardiniwas further back in third while Chris Dymock and Jamie Nardini rounded out the top five.
That brings the official summer season of Formula 500’s to a close, but never fear, the pocket rockets will be back in action on ANZAC Day at Narrogin Speedway for the Bunny Burrowes Memorial, so make sure you head down to see what is sure to be a huge show!
