The 35 year old concreter took two event wins en route to a series victory, both over former national champion Shane Wynd, which McClure says was one of the highlights of his season.

McClure races a Holden VT ute which consistently runs in the mid 9sec. zone.

It was McClure's second championship in Super Sedan, on top of another in Super Street, and the always confident racer is now looking at the next goal.

"I've proved my point," he said.

"I was thinking about going to the Super Stock category but then I'd thought I'd give Outlaws a go, I've always liked the idea of a supercharged race car."

McClure has been compiling the necessary pieces in his race car puzzle for a few months now but development has been rapid and he says the car will be ready to go shortly.

He purchased an Altered-style car along with the drivetrain from Allan Kirk's Altered which was runner up in the Outlaws championship this season.

The finishing touch has been sponsor Muffler Magic bringing in a Funny Car body from Queensland to go over the car. The fibreglass shell will make the car a bit heavier but McClure says he is just looking to learn the trade this season.

"It will probably take half the season to get used to it," he said.

McClure is also taking pride in knowing three generations of his family will be competing in the sport with son Connor turning 8 in October making him old enough to compete in the Junior Dragster category. Meantime McClure's father Jim continues to race a 12sec. Holden Kingswood in Super Street. Add to that brother Tim who is currently on hiatus from racing in Comp Bike on his 9sec. Suzuki Hayabusa and things have become a real family affair.

Despite the championship win, the rarely modest McClure says the best part of his season was just to have the respect of his fellow racers.

"Sometimes there can be a bit of tall poppy syndrome but it's nice to still be respected even after kicking their butts," he said.
