Hi Guys 🏎,

We are once again extremely happy and proud of the GWR Clients with their results throughout the year. This past weekend we had the final round of the Dunlop V8 Supercars series and what a nail-biting final it was.

Warren Lombard was ahead in the championship points with a mere 2 points. On Friday his car was perfect during the practice rounds but after qualifying early Saturday morning the gearbox was suspect thus we decided to change it before race one. Naturally, 30-minutes before the race we found a major fuel tank leak, resulting in a quick repair before the race. Race one went well but on the last lap Warren felt that the back-end of the car was not up to par and upon further investigation we discovered a problem with the rear end and changed the differential. This car has really tested us throughout this season, so winning the overall championship was the cherry on top!

We would also like to congratulate Thomas Reib, another GW Racing client, finishing second overall in the championship. Thomas you gave it your best shot by even purchasing a new chassis and body three-quarter way through the season. Well done!

We take great pride in giving our clients the best service and engines, and the results speak for themselves - time and time again.

Have a great one,
The GW Racing team 🏁
