Repco Supercars Championship leader Broc Feeney has broken Scott McLaughlin’s record for most poles in a season by setting the pace in a spectacular qualifying session for Race 32 in Adelaide.
Feeney was able to set a 1m 18.964s prior to the R&J Batteries Racing Camaro of Andre Heimgartner blowing an engine at the last corner, which hampered two potential pole laps.
Sharing the front-row with Feeney is title rival Chaz Mostert after the Walkinshaw Andretti United replaced the right-rear corner of the Mobil 1 Optus Racing For Mustang after earlier contact at Turn 8.
Cam Waters was one of those drivers to hit the oil late in the session, but his previous lap was good enough to place the Monster Castrol Racing Mustang third.
Shell V-Power Racing Team’s Brodie Kostecki lines up alongside Waters and was another to hit the oil.
Mobil 1 Truck Assist Racing driver Ryan Wood will start fifth, with Erebus Motorsport rookie Cooper Murray next on the grid after sneaking into the final segment.
Kai Allen will line-up seventh in an all-Penrite Racing fourth row alongside Matt Payne.
Rounding out the top 10 are Anton De Pasquale in the DEWALT Racing Camaro and Heimgartner, with Brad Jones Racing completing an engine change prior to Race 32.
A prize of $50,000 is on the line in Friday evening’s opening race at the bp Adelaide Grand Prix due to begin at 4:20pm ACDT and 4:50pm AEST.
