What a great weekend of racing. The PAC team were out in force with 6 cars competing at this year’s Snap-on Nitro Champs at WSID, PAC MX6, Ivan in his Pink RX3, Flaibian brothers’ black RX3, Jimmy’s 13B corolla, Rodney’s RX3 rocket and Anthony D’aquino’s RX3.
Round 3 of the Toyo Tires Sports Compact Group Championship series looked in serious threat late in the week prior to the 18 May scheduled date, but the gods were smiling come race day with a beautiful blue sky greeting competitors and the PAC Performance team.
After the long drive North to Willowbank, through marginal weather and after heavy rainfall in the area in preceding days, the team arrived to be greeted on Thursday, with blue skies and cool conditions.
Work is well under way on the new race car and whilst the team was hoping to unveil their new Mazda 6 at this year’s Castrol EDGE Jamboree, unfortunately the debut has been delayed.
Queensland and Willowbank Raceway presented their best faces for J18 with almost perfect conditions, blue skies,warm temperatures and a westerly head-wind on the Saturday.
The PAC Performance Racing Team is proud to announce their official tour in New Zealand in early 2009. It has been 10 years since they have been to NZ and the first time the MX6 will be racing on foreign soil. The team will be accompanied by Mckern Racing in their green RX2, GRUMP2, and they are sure to put on a show.
