Blanchard Racing Team have completed their 2026 Ryco Enduro Cup driver lineup, with Zak Best returning alongside Aaron Cameron.
Best's renewal completes BRT's enduro roster for 2026, following the high-profile acquisition of 2023 Bathurst winner Richie Stanaway to join James Golding in the #7 Mustang.
The three-time Super2 runner-up immediately highlighted his return from a year away from co-driving by topping a co-driver session at The Bend, before challenging for the lead at Bathurst.
Best and Cameron equalled BRT's best Bathurst finish with ninth, with the Benalla product eager to carry that momentum into the 2026 enduros.
“I’ve spent a lot of time with the team over the past year, so coming back in for the enduros feels like a natural continuation which I'm really happy about," said Best.
"Bathurst last season showed what we are capable of when things come together and that we can fight towards the front when the opportunities are there. I’m looking forward to seeing what we can do this year.”
Cameron is also excited to have more continuity heading into his second season, following a strong conclusion to his rookie campaign that saw him jag a front row start and lead
“Zak fits straight in with how we operate. He knows the team, understands the demands and is easy to work with, both in and out of the car," said Cameron.
"That familiarity is important, and I think we have a great opportunity to give the enduros a real crack this year.”
Co-owner and Team Principal Tim Blanchard added: “Zak has been consistently strong in every car he has raced over the years, and his performances at Bathurst, particularly last year in the wet, really stood out.
"He is a great character within the team, but we know that when it is time to go racing, we can rely on him to deliver.”
BRT are set to reveal their 2026 liveries, including Cameron's new-look LIQUI MOLY BLAHST Racing Mustang tomorrow.
The 2026 Repco Supercars Championship begins at the DUNLOP Sydney 500 from February 20-22. Tickets for the event, including DUNLOP Free Friday, are on sale now.
