MONDAY JANUARY 19 2009 - Brasil
Mad Dog Racing tonight took out the Group C pool title in the AusFactor V8 Team Series for 2009.

With confidence high amongst team drivers Triggerfish, Richo1, Maxcat and MDR-Quasi, the team looked forward to the meeting with the internally troubled V8SOL2 team. However, as with the 'Chev Dealer Team' in round 5, MDR's opposition failed to put in an appearance for this final round of the season proper.

"It's really disappointing to win the group C title this way", said a despondent MDR team captain, "This is the second round in a row where we were on the mark in lap times, that were good enough to win this thing on the track. After JFF's second team pulled out of the championship a couple of rounds ago we knew we had the forfeit in round 6, but with CDT not making an appearance in round 5 we've been forced to win this series with 3 forfeits in a row now, meaning we have put in the work for nothing, and haven't raced for a month. I always knew we had what it took to finish second in group C, but as things unfolded and there was a shakeup at V8SOL I took a look at the performance of the guys and began to see that we had a real shot at first place."

The table was turned on it's ear at the same time, when V8SOL2 also failed to appear for their match race with WMS Racing, rocketing that team to second place in group C.

With MDR now going into the finals seeded 2nd overall they face-off against Group B finalists HSV, whilst WMS are pitted against the might of 1st seeded 'Full Noise Race Team' in the overall series finals.
