With
two rounds of the 09/10 season World Series
Sprintcar (WSS) Championship completed;
Grant ‘The Gun’ Anderson is pleased to be
currently sitting equal fourth in the overall
point standings after a top 10 finish during
the second round last Saturday night in
what was his first visit to Toowoomba’s
Charlton Raceway.
The
Horrell Motorsport team driver recorded
a ninth place finish in the feature race
and he was one of the few drivers’ during
the 30 lap event that actually moved forward
after he had started from position 14 in
the field.
“Considering
that there was limited passing opportunities
in the feature race to move forward was
a very satisfying result and something that
the whole team can proud of,” Anderson expressed.
“My team did a fantastic job to give me
a strong car in the feature race. If I didn’t
have such a strong car I surely wouldn’t
have been able to achieve such a result
as during the heat races we didn’t move
forward and that saw us start deep in the
feature race field.”
Anderson’s
debut visit to Toowoomba’s Charlton Raceway
as a competitor was a solid one, especially
considering that he was able to time trial
eighth quickest in qualifying and finish
the night with a satisfying feature race
result.
“I
would have been in my early teens when I
last came here when my dad [David Anderson]
was racing,” he admitted. “It doesn’t really
bother me visiting unfamiliar tracks and
you just have to go out there and give it
your all and take it all from there.”
This
Saturday night (December 5) Anderson returns
to familiar territory when the third round
of the WSS Championship is fought out at
Parramatta City Raceway (Sydney, NSW) and
it is something he is looking forward to.
“In
recent trips to PCR I have performed fairly
strongly and hopefully I can continue that
this Saturday night,” the 28-year-old commented.
“The goal for this Saturday night is to
come away with a top 10 result and then
that will set us up nicely for when we head
into the start of the WSS Speedweek from
Boxing Night at Speedway City.”
