Nathan Smee took the 'One lap down Challenge' in the CEJN Pty Ltd Spring Speedcar Spectacular last night at Sydney's Valvoline Raceway but it was Matt Jackson who scored yet another main event win.

It was initially Robert Mackay who was offered the challenge after being the high points man going into the Shootout but when Mackay elected not to take the Challenge Nathan Smee boldly said he would.

Smee needed a couple more caution lights to assist his charge back through the field but still managed a gallant fifth place fightback after starting on pole position one lap down on the rest of the field in the GRD#14.

Matt Jackson scored his fourth victory of the season from Michael Stewart again on the podium for second whilst Harley Smee found the final spot in the top three ahead of Troy Jenkins' second consecutive fourth place finish.

Jamie Hall scored a career best sixth place which whilst Jeffrey Burns was also solid in seventh place.
