Lines Third in George Tatnell Cup @ Speedway City

8-4-2008

Third place was the best Steve Lines could come up with on Saturday night (April 5) at Speedway City (Adelaide, South Australia) during the running of the annual George Tatnell Cup.

Lines started the feature race from pole position, after winning the pole shootout, but a gamble with the setup of his # 45 Camden Neon Signs supported J&J saw him battle with a slick track and finish in third place.

“We lucked out with our setup, as we didn’t imagine that the track was going to go that slick as it did, but once we were out there we just had to do the best we could,” Lines explained.

“Our gamble with the setup didn’t work out as planned during the feature race and we were still happy with a spot on the podium.”

Earlier in the night Lines finished his two heat races in second place, and his result during the second heat was achieved from a rear of the field start.

For Lines the George Tatnell Cup was his final meeting of the 2007/08 season.

Highlights for Lines this season have been winning the South Australian State Title and finishing on the podium in second place behind Max Dumesny during the final round of the Speedweek Series as part of the World Series Sprintcar trail.

Special thanks go to the team owner Dave Challons, crew chief Craig Bennetts and the rest of the Camden Neon Signs team for all their support of Lines this season.
