Robbie Farr driving the Q36 Titan Garages & Carports Maxam took out the Nanovich Tribute / King of Wings feature for the second year running at the Kwinana Motorplex last Saturday night. For Robbie and the Titan team lead by crew chief, Nick Speed and Steve it was good to take the win, for Robbie it was a little more special, back to back Nanovich Tribute wins (2004) along with a second place in (2003), this race has become very rewarding. “This was another great event for me, to be able to back up last years win with another is tremendous and for my crew chief, Nick Speed I must thank him for all his work so far this season. We have struck up a good working relationship during the season and the results are showing if we work hard we can have good results along with Steve who makes sure we have what is needed and is always there to do what ever is needed to keep us on the track” At the completion of the heats Robbie had picked enough points to give him a start in the Pole Shootout for the A Main starting positions. In heat 3 Robbie started from P4 to finish in P1 while in heat 6 he started in P5 and moved to P3. With a time of 13.140 in the Pole shootout Robbie was to start the main event from P3. It wasn’t long into the main before Robbie moved the black Q36 Titan car in second place then set his sights on the leader, a few laps later the pass was made for the lead that wasn’t relinquished for the rest of the journey. “ After the earlier events I was sure going into the main that I had a car that would work good on the top and the bottom, it wasn’t long into the race that I knew that I was right and things were looking good. With about ten laps to go I could feel the right rear was not travelling too well but after another few laps the tyre didn’t appear to be getting any worse and I thought well maybe we are all in the same boat so I pressed on and got the win, it was another good result for the team” Next up is the Krikke Boys race at Bunbury for Robbie and the Titan Team on Saturday the 19th before heading back over to the East Coast for the annual Easter trial.
