Ipswich Super 440 – Practice 1 & 2 Results
Will Brown – Car #1
Practice 1 – 6th (1:09.4670)
Practice 2 – 1st (1:08.4927)
“Coming to Queensland Raceway I was hoping that we were extremely competitive. Obviously it’s our test track so you would hope that we roll out fairly strong and I think we did that.”
“I think I struggled a little bit in practice one and even a little bit of the start of practice two. We did a lot on the car throughout to fine tune and get it right and I think we once we’d put all those changes together, took some bad ones out, put some more of the good ones in that we thought would help, then we were good to go. I think we had a really strong car in that last run, better than I even expected and to end up first in session two is awesome.”
“We’ve obviously had a little bit of a tough time on our side of the garage, and it’s only Friday, so you don’t win any trophies for Friday but definitely a positive end of the day. Looking forward to tomorrow.”
Broc Feeney – Car #88

Practice 2 – 2nd (1:08.6346)
“Back at Queensland Raceway, I expected to roll out really strong here to be honest, I would have been disappointed if we didn’t. Look, practice one wasn’t smooth but we we’re extremely fast, at one point by about two tenths. I had a couple of things to work on through that session so to see that pace was promising, and then practice two was pretty smooth after that.”
“It was really tight in practice two, both myself and Will got it up there not only on our green run but other runs around that as well.”
“Still a couple of things to work on with qualifying and racing tomorrow, but overall the Triple Eight cars as a whole – us and the Wildcard with Zach (Bates) – have had a fantastic day. Keeping an eye on the weather tomorrow. The last time I was here racing GT it was a wet weekend so maybe that helps a little bit knowing the lines, the way the puddles will set, but look we’ll see what happens. I mean, these are obviously very different to a GT car in the wet, no ABS, no traction controls, so we’ll see what we get.”
“To be honest, I’d be happy if it rains, but on the flip side I want it to be dry so we can get a big crowd out here this weekend. I’m up for both.”
