However, this may prove difficult for Mullan and his yellow 'RAMJET' machine, as two-time Group A world title holder Slade Stanley continues to lead at the top of the table by five points.
Stanley has been flawless recently and will be aiming to continue his winning ways during the next round of the competition in Griffith.
He will be hoping to entertain and excite spectators at Lake Wyangan this weekend, as he continues to push for the championship title.
But with only three rounds remaining, many race fans are refusing to discount Mullan from clinching a late victory.
Mullan has been piloting a new development program that sees him testing and building new components for almost every event.
This strategy is set to prove invaluable for the long term reliability of 'RAMJET.'
Alongside the exciting battle of these two rivalling champions, spectators will also be treated to the 400 and LS classes.
Paul Kelly remains undefeated in the 400, despite Justin Roylance setting the pace during qualifiers.
Brett Elphinstone has also seen a winning streak in the LS class.
Travelling speedboat fans and Riverina locals will be able to catch all of the action at 3pm, Lake Wyangan on September 21.
