And then we came to the race everyone had been waiting for. Who would take the title so sought after in Australian slotting!!??
That's right folks....it was time for the big one.....
The 2016 Brock HIRE CAR CHALLENGE !!!!!!!
Lee Evans came up with this one and it was a huge hit!
I think 18 people attempted to run the fastest lap with the Purple hire car.
Lee had obviously put in a lot of practice which saw him pull out a 9.37 lap. The best the rest of us could manage was in the 9.50 - 10.50 range. Then Stumpy jnr. laid down the quickest purple hire car time in history! An astounding 9.30!
The crowd went wild!
After order was restored,we moved on to the final event,Open.

Cody was on a mission!
He had won just about every major race in Australia,but the Brock had alluded him.
This was the year. Wayne had decided not to race so he could provide Cody with the best pit service possible. And it all worked out!
Well done Cody!
