Tuesday night at Yandina Speedway on the Sunshine Coast, the two Macdonald's enjoyed fierce rivalry between themselves.  Heat 1 saw Nathan from 3 and Shane beside him in 4.  Nathan was able to get into 2nd place behind Chris Duffel.  While attempting to pass Duffel, Nathan received a hit on the passenger door when Shane pulled up beside him and passed the #32 car.  Shane then got into the lead, with Nathan then into 2nd.  After feeling good through the corner, Nathan's car suddenly drifted high and hit the wall.  Nathan's first thought was driver error but later discovering a broken steering arm.  Heat 1 finished with- 1st Shane Macdonald    2nd Tanya Blacker    3rd Chris Duffel. 

Nathan was back for round 2, starting off of position 2 with Shane on pole.  Shane was able to get the better start and pulled into lead, with Nathan switching back on the inside, he was able to pull up beside Shane, racing right beside him for nearly a full lap.  But Shane never gave in, keeping his lead.  After trying desperately to catch his brother, Nathan on 2 occasions scraped the wall up the front straight, but was unable to gain a position.  Heat 2 finished as - 1st Shane Macdonald    2nd Nathan Macdonald    3rd Tanya Blacker. 

The feature saw Shane being highest point scorer and starting from pole, with Nathan back in 4th.  Shane jumped straight into the lead, with Nathan making his way into the lead after the first lap, and putting chase to the #27 car.  Shane had about a 4 car-length lead from Nathan, and on about lap 7, Shane was right behind a lapped car, trying to pass, and as he come around turn 1, the car in front of him swerved to the right, leaving Shane staring straight at a parked car that had just spun out.  Shane hit the car head on, Shane didn't even have time to jump on the brakes.  The #27 car suffered severe front end damage, putting a hole in the radiator.  Shane was forced to retire. 

Although disappointed to see such damage to his brother's car, Nathan was still happy to be handed the lead.  On the restart Nathan was never troubled, pulling away to a half-lap lead, and winning the feature race.  Nathan happily greeted the chequered flag, after tonight being his first race at the Yandina track.   1st Nathan Macdonald    2nd Tanya Blacker    3rd Chris duffel.
