BACK-TO-BACK: McFadden Capitalizes on Larson’s Misfortune for Another High Limit International Win at Perth

The second verse was the same as the first in High Limit International action at Perth Motorplex.

Sunday’s second preliminary program ended just the way Saturday’s opener did with James McFadden taking his Team Brady Racing team to victory lane at the Kwinana Beach, Western Australia oval.

This time, the Alice Springs, Northern Territory native capitalized on the misfortune of NASCAR Champion Kyle Larson to assume the lead and never look back. With a sweep of the prelims in his pocket, J-Mac and his Brady boys have established themselves as the clear favorite ahead of Monday’s $100,000-to-win finale – the richest payday in Australian Sprint Car history.

Acquiring the lead on Lap 9 of 30, McFadden was given command of the field when early leader Larson hit the wall and required a trip to the work area with significant rear end damage. The Elk Grove, California native saw his chances at his first-career Australian win slip away as he was forced to the tail in his Jason Pryde Motorsports #1K.

From there, McFadden survived a multitude of cautions to nab his second-straight victory and officially secure high point man honors in the High Limit International event. He’s locked-in to the Dash of Monday’s finale along with Brad Sweet, Cole Macedo, and Callum Williamson, making it two Americans and two Australians.

Macedo added another notch to his impressive debut weekend at Perth, taking Trent Pigdon’s #7 to a runner-up result in Saturday’s show. Closing out the podium was another out-of-stater with South Australia’s Matt Egel earning a third-place effort in his #S52 ride.

Rounding out the top-10 was Brad Sweet, Jock Goodyer, Brock Zearfoss, Kaiden Manders, Cory Eliason, Kyle Larson, and Giovanni Scelzi.
