Jody Jamieson had his best night of the 2015 World Driving Championship tonight at Penrith as he scored victories in two of the three heats.

The World Driving Championship headed to Penrith tonight for three heats. Penrith is a suburb and a major centre in the metropolitan area of Sydney, located 60 kilometres west of Sydney on the banks of the Nepean River. The Penrith track is 804 metres (half a mile) in circumference.

Canada’s Jody Jamieson dominated the evening’s proceedings winning two heats but it was his patience that was rewarded in heat seventeen. Driving the favourite, Strawberry Courage from gate one, he got buried on the marker pegs. Showing a lot of skill to get away from the inside Jody Jamieson charged home over the top to beat Emerging Art and Finland’s Mika Forss. Just Pit Boss and Dexter Dunn finished third with Diesel Shannon and Denmark’s Knud Monster fourth.

"It feels good to win here," said Jamieson, "It's very competitive out there but once we are off the track, the camaraderie is great."

Joining Jamieson in the winner's circle were his wife Stephanie, parents Debbie And Carl, and good friends Angela and Jim Whelan.

Knud Monster brought up his second win of the Championship when he brought Midnight Lights with a well timed run to win heat eighteen but when Dexter Dunn held onto second placing driving Lombo Final Touch it all but sealed the Championship for New Zealand. France’s Tony Le Beller weaved through to get third with Flying Crusa while Billion Smiles and Mika Forss finished fourth.

Jamieson made it a double when Katsidis charged home late to score a narrow victory in heat nineteen.

Marshal Dale and Tony Le Beller was second. Norway’s Vidar Hop was third driving Tralee Bromac and Satu for France’s Pierre Vercruysse grabbed fourth.
