McCullagh and his Warrnambool team claimed a home-town Grand Annual Sprintcar Classic win in a car covered in the names of Warrnambool businesses and with hours of much-loved local labour to make it the quickest around Premier Speedway.
For Corey’s father, Bryan McCullagh, the triumph despite the limited resources at the team’s disposal is a badge of honour.
“We can’t,” Mr McCullagh said when asked how the team competes financially against.
“We don’t even get close, some of the teams have multi-million dollar budgets, we operate on a shoestring.
“We have to sit down at the start of the year and work out where we really want to race because we just don’t have the budget to go everywhere. It makes it even more satisfying when things go well.”
