Aussie Moule takes 410 win in the States

Young Victorian and third generation dirt tracker Todd Moule took out a sensational 410 A-Main win in the Maverick Winged SprintCar series in Bloomington, Indiana.

Just a few weeks after SA racer Scott Bogucki took a 410 win in Knoxville, Moule – a 20-year-old racer from Heathcote, Victoria, who has also competed at the World of Outlaw series on the Brad Doty Classic weekend – took the A-Main in Bloomington against a strong field that included NASCAR driver Chase Briscoe.

After winning the Heat 2 affair from pole position, Moule started on the front row alongside Joe B. Miller in the 30 lap main.

Racing in the 26AU Moule Motorsport 410 machine, Moule was the chief challenger to the breakaway Miller over the red clay in the first 10 laps as they started to hit traffic.

Dicing through traffic with some wild moves, the Victorian jet hit the front at the halfway mark, and in a close affair of the final 5 laps, held off the 51B driver from Missouri.

Moule almost backed up the feat at Red Hill Raceway in Illinois, qualifying on pole for the A-Main after winning another Heat.

In the 25 lap feature, Moule then led the field for 23 laps before his engine dropped a cylinder, forcing him to retire the 26AU.

With his US trip coming to an end shortly, Moule is expected to be on track for the Indiana, Lincoln Park round on August 17.
