Colin Dryburgh picked up the 1st last place finish of his SCRL Telcel Mexico Series career in the Season 1 Jackaroo Sauces 250 at the Peach State Speedway when his #15 Citizen Toyota completed all 20 laps under power.
The finish came in his 4th career series start.
Dryburgh had already found success in the SCRL before he signed up to compete in the inaugural season of the SCRL's Mexico Series. In his first start for the series, Dryburgh would finish 4th at Phoenix, before in the neck round at Central Texas, Dryburgh would easily lead all twenty laps to score his first series victory. Proving it was no fluke, Dryburgh would once again lead every single lap as he would hold off Crazy Is Crazy to score his second win of the season and second in a row on the twisting road course at Willow Springs.
On race night, Dryburgh would start 7th while starting in the final spot was the #88 Canel's / Scotiabank / HDI Seguros Toyota of Yutaii. For the second race in a row, the caution would not fly which short term would be good for the drivers and fans, but after about halfway through the race, things started to spread out some and in doing so, Dryburgh would fall back to last in the final few laps, ending his chance at tying the record of winning three races in a row.
The remaining Bottom Five were: 11th was the #58 Axtel X-Tremo Toyota of Crazy Is Crazy, 10th was Willow Spring last-place finisher the #20 Avaya / Axtel X-Tremo Toyota of Zachary Fitzwater, 9th was the #18 Canel's / Scotiabank / HDI Seguros Toyota of Chakat Whitelion and 8th was the #2 Arris Toyota of Steve Morgan.
Dryburgh's two wins at Central Park and Willow Springs would be the only wins of his career in the Mexico Series, and while he finish finish the season with three straight Top 3 finishes, Dryburgh would come up short in the championship, losing by 8 points to Chakat Whitelion. Dryburgh would go on to score 20 career wins in the SCRL and would while going on to win three championships in his career.
