PERTH MOTORPLEX: KINGSHOTT WINS MADDINGTON TOYOTA ROUND TWO

Defending series champion Dayne Kingshott claimed the Electrical Group Training Westernapolis at the Perth Motorplex on Saturday night, November 1, from Callum Williamson and Kaiden Manders.

Kingshott started on the front row and held down the lead from the get-go, taking the 30-lap feature race that was round two of the 2025-26 Maddington Toyota Sprintcar Series championship.

He qualified on the front row, alongside Monte Motorsport driver Jy Corbett, after being third quickest in his qualifying group and converting front row starts to wins, in both his heat race and the Revolution Racegear B Dash.

The win builds on Kingshott’s good result in round one where he started up front, but was relegated for contact with another car and deemed the primary cause of a restart, then charging from 16th up to fifth.

This time around, the driver of the Krikke Motorsport W2, was in control in a fast feature race, that, after a restart with only four laps in the books, ran non-stop.

It was a different result to that of Williamson who had to dig deep after hurting an engine in hot laps and not even taking a lap for qualifying or a heat race.

The Williamson Motorsport W3 throttle stomper changed engines and joined the back of the bus for the BR Motorsports / King Racing Products Mid Pack Madness, charging from p16 to third, behind Kris Coyle and Ryan Lancaster.

Williamson then started from p15 for the main event and early on he was on the loud pedal, moving his way through the pack, a gain of 13 spots.

Manders came from p6 for the final and strapped himself into the Dan Golding Racing W71 immediately after taking victory in the WA Speedcar Championship.

This meant he saw plenty of the track, including how demanding it was in turn three when a massive rut had developed, something Manders was aware of in the speedcar battle.

He was fourth in his qualifying group and took second in his heat race, from a front row start, before moving from fifth to third in the B Dash.

The feature race got off to a shaky start, with Corbett, who won the Revolution Racegear A Dash, on the back of a win in his heat race and was third quickest in his qualifying group, was relegated two spots on the first attempt for jumping the start.

This was at the same time as Matt Cross, who started from p11, went upside down in turn one on the first lap.

The caution lights came on after four laps when James Inglis crashed in turn two and was out, in an incident that also involved Brad Maiolo and Corbett, who were both able to resume from the rear of the field.

Kris Coyle, who won the Midpack, took fourth after starting from p13, while Michael Keen was fifth, after starting from p12.

Maiolo was able to get back up to 6th after going back to 20th, gaining 14 spots, ahead of Taylor Milling who started from p5 after setting the Victory 1 Performance Quick Time at the start of the show.

Daniel Harding was eighth after starting from p10, ahead of Ryan Lancaster who went from 14th to ninth and Jason Kendrick, who rounded out the top 10 after initially starting from p3, but was promoted to the front row after the Corbett penalty.

The series returns to the Perth Motorplex on Saturday, November 15 for Rd3 – the Scardifields Smash Repairs King of Wings.
