Gold Coast finals set for PIRTEK Pit Stop Challenge
Four leading teams will vie for the PIRTEK Pit Stop Challenge major prize on the Gold Coast.
The finals will be contested by Walkinshaw Andretti United, Shell V-Power Racing Team, Brad Jones Racing, and Red Bull Ampol Racing.
The four teams will make up the head-to-head semi-finals held on the Friday morning (October 28) of the Boost Mobile Gold Coast 500.
The live finals will be held from 11:30am local time on Friday October 28.
The four teams were locked in in New Zealand, with the ITM Auckland SuperSprint's three races all featuring Safety Cars.
It meant the points from the Penrite Oil Sandown SuperSprint set the finals line-up.
WAU and DJR ended tied on points, with the challenge contested over the eight sprint rounds.
BJR is aiming for a fourth consecutive PIRTEK Pit Stop Challenge major prize.
The Albury team is the class of pit lane, and took out the Golden Rattle Gun Trophy in 2019, 2020 and 2021.
The PIRTEK Pit Stop Challenge finals were postponed to the Gold Coast due to the wet conditions at Mount Panorama.
The two semi-finals and finals will run under a revised format.
Crews will be required to undertake a timed four-tyre change in their own pit bay.
The crews with the two fastest times will progress to the live final.
There, they will go go head-to-head in pursuit of $20,000 and the coveted Golden Rattle Gun Trophy.
The team who records the fastest time in the final will be crowned 2022 PIRTEK Pit Stop Challenge champions.
The Boost Mobile Gold Coast 500 will be held 28-30 October and broadcast live on Fox Sports and the Seven Network.
Every session of the event will be broadcast live on Foxtel (Fox Sports 503) and streamed on Kayo.
