Cowra speedway rider, Brady Kurtz, totally dominated the “Mallee Bearings” Australian Title, Round two meeting at Mildura’s Olympic Park on Sunday night, winning the Final well ahead of a fast Cowra colleague, Zach Cook and young Queenslander, Keynan Rew, while Josh Pickering failed to complete the journey, but finished in fourth place.
Kurtz continued his winning ways from Friday night at the Gillman Speedway to take a wonderful lead in the 2025 Championship at the half-way point of the Title series. Kurtz was again unbeaten at Mildura, with a great win last week in the Phil Crump Classic and on Sunday night, dominated to the extent of lowering the Olympic Park lap record on three separate occasions, the third time being in a cut-throat Semi Final, where he not only made a new lap record, but, in the process, reduced the Four Lap race record substantially. Kurtz now holds all the Solo records at Olympic Park, having, last week, lowered the Six lap record when he clearly won the Phil Crump Trophy so convincingly.
The travelling Title series moves on to Diamond Park, Wodonga for Wednesday night before travelling to Queensland for the final round on 11th January.
Many riders will be keen to get their 2025 Title series back on track, but with only two rounds remaining, it would seem to be Brady Kurtz who holds all the cards.
There would need to be a major shift in the score chart to not see Kurtz win his second Title, his first being way back in 2016, when he won the Title at the Mildura final round.
