Pigdons’ Records!

Tonight Tyler Pigdon (Pigdon Race Team) began writing his own story in the record books, starting with claiming his first ever feature win at the Perth Motorplex!

Pigdon was strong all night, surviving an intense battle with Max Lang (Max Lang Racing) in the first heat and then holding off Mason Whitehead (Whitehead Racing) in the second to go through the preliminaries undefeated.
Pigdon and Lang would start on the front row together for the feature race. The duo went at it on the first start with Pigdon getting the upper hand, but the field was called back to try again.

The second attempt saw Pigdon get away cleanly, Lang forced to settle in behind as Whitehead and Leah Heeps (Leah Heeps Motorsport) sat right behind him.

As the laps wound down Pigdon got further and further ahead, while Whitehead sat right on Langs tail looking for a way past and Heeps came under pressure from fifth placed Brax Condren (Condren Motorsport).

Despite the pressure, there would be no positional changes and Pigdon would go on to claim his first Junior Formula 500 win, defeating Lang and Whitehead in a brand new ten lap record time!

Condren got by Heeps for fourth while Bree Mears (@MearsRacing) rounded out the finishers on her debut night.

Amazingly, Pigdon also recorded the fastest one lap time for a Junior Formula 500, giving him two Motorplex records in one night and becoming just the eight driver to win a Junior Formula 500 race at the venue.

The Junior Formula 500’s now have three weeks off before returning to the Perth Motorpelx for the third of the Fast Friday’s on December 5th.
