The inaugural Newman Excavation 100 got off to a flying start as 51 teams took to the track, notching up 56km of racing on Day 1.


After four rounds of racing, at the overnight break, Clayton Chapman #15 sits at the top of the time sheets with a slender 23second lead over Brayden Mifsud #626. Talbot Cox drove the #16 into third place 21seconds behind Mifsud and less the 0.2seconds ahead of Sybrand deKlerk #652.


Teams head back to the track today to finish off the 100km of racing through the picturesque Moranbah landscape.
