	Ovaltrack Marketing - Experienced veteran wins Gilgandra NSW Super Sedan series round (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		After scoring two impressive heat race wins, the pole sitter for the 20-lap feature race was Jones, but at the drop of the green a mistake by Jones heading into turn one allowed Armstrong to move into command, which he took full advantage of, as did Ward and Barklimore.
		On a newly laid Gilgandra track surface, conditions were made slightly tricky due to the track having a single racing line, and passing opportunities were at minimum.
		In a feature race that ran the entire 20-lap distance without a single stoppage, that was a true testament to the clean competitive racing that the NSW Series has been showcasing of late.
