Late Model Racing Western Australia
Who Will Claim Round Three?
The stars of the Pro Dirt Series are ready to light up the Perth Motorplex once again this weekend, with Round Three of the 2025/26 championship, proudly presented by the team at ABN Trade Mates, shaping up as another blockbuster on the Late Model Racing WA calendar.
After two thrilling rounds to open the season, the points battle is already fierce and with the current leader Jamie Oldfield (Oldfield Racing) not in this weekend’s field, it gives a whole host of drivers the chance to finish the round atop the points.
Fresh off his impressive victory at the last Motorplex round, Warren Oldfield (Oldfield Racing) will be one of the favourites again as he looks to make it back-to-back wins and build early-season momentum. His experience around the Perth venue always makes him a major contender.
Joe Chalmers (Team BCM Motorsport:), who has been one of the standout performers so far this season, is in the hot seat coming into this round. With a second and a third from the opening two rounds, he sits second in the overall standings and looks primed to challenge for his first feature race win of the year.
Right behind him in the points is Brent Vosbergen (Team Vosbergen Racing - TVR), who continues to show his trademark consistency with a fifth and a fourth-place finish. Vosbergen has been right in the mix each time out and will be aiming to climb onto the podium this weekend.
Rookie sensation Beau Oldfield (Oldfield Racing) has turned heads in his debut Pro Dirt campaign, sitting seventh in the championship thanks to a pair of solid performances. With every lap behind the wheel, Beau continues to gain confidence and could well break into the top five this round.
Among those looking to bounce back after mixed results are Brad Blake, who has a seventh-place finish and a DNF so far, and Greg Horan (@ChopperPopRacing), who will be hoping for a change of luck after a DNF and 13th-place result to start his season. Ken Macpherson (KMM - Ken Macpherson Motorsport) will also be eager to rebound after his podium finish at the season opener was followed by a DNF at the last show.
Peter Walker (@Teameighty1) will be another one to watch after storming through the field as the hard charger last time out, while David Nylander (Nylander Motorsport) and Luke Halliday (Halliday Racing) have quietly built consistent form, both recording strong top-ten results across the opening two rounds.
Further down the order, Michael Holmes (Michael Holmes Racing) has improved with each outing, while David Boyes (Boyes Motorsport), Nathan Richards, and Chris Barrow (Barrow Motorsports) will all be pushing hard to move forward after some early-season challenges.
Abbey Pickering (All About Racing) will be looking for a smooth run after recording a DNF and an 11th to start her season, while Veronica McCann (Veronica McCann - Red Hot Racing) makes her much-anticipated return after injury forced her out of the last round, determined to bounce back from a DNF in the opener.
Jay Cardy (Cardy Racing Components) has been steady inside the top ten with two strong results, while Jay Bassinelli (Bassanelli Motorsport ) will be aiming to improve on his 13th-place finish from the season opener. Ryan Huxtable (Huxy Racing) will be looking to recover from a tough outing last round, and Mat Robbins (Robbins Motorsport ) is set to make his first Pro Dirt appearance of the season, adding even more depth to an already competitive field.
With a blend of proven champions, rising stars, and determined contenders, Round Three of the ABN Trade Mates Pro Dirt Series promises to deliver another night of hard, fast, and unpredictable Late Model action at the Perth Motorplex.
