Five years ago this month in a shed in Hervey Bay, a plan was hatched to take a free Audi that was given to us and race it on a track in the 24 hours of Le’mons. This is a snowball that continued to grow year after year gaining more momentum and expanding from its humble beginnings.
Fast forward five years and we have become a race team to be reckoned with in the local endurance racing scene, running up to three Audi’s with 12 drivers at some events and picking up numerous wins and podium finishes at the best race tracks in Queensland. Collectively our Audi’s have raced more than 30,000km on race tracks which is a stat that takes a bit to get your head around, especially for 20 year old cars.
It has not been easy, nor smooth sailing all the way, but as we have learned…That’s racing. The dizzying highs and crushing lows is what keeps up coming back for more. The team, spearheaded by Darren Goddard and Russell Greaves, has been driven by their mechanical wizardry and their lifelong history of racing bikes and anything with an engine.
The team has amassed a driving roster of over 20 drivers from Mackay to Melbourne that we can call upon to fill the race seats each event, these have come from people we meet at race events, friends and friends from the sim racing community.
We have loved all the support we have received from all of you over the years, from those who have been with us from the beginning to our new followers. But this is only the beginning… we still have plenty of exciting races to get through this year and plans are afoot to make 2024 the biggest year yet! New cars, new tracks and bigger challenges await us!
So tighten your belts and join us for more racing adventures by following our page and sharing it with your friends. And if you have ever wanted to be a race car driver for a weekend we are always on the look out for more drivers.
