FAVOURITES
Brodie Kostecki continued his Cash Converters Eseries championship charge combining with Jarrad Filsell to win the Bathurst enduro last Wednesday.
The Boost Mobile Commodore driver now sits 114 points clear of second place Justin Ruggier heading into the finale.
Madison Down leads the Pro Series standings, the sim racing talent combined with Aaron Borg to finish second at Mount Panorama.
Down has been on an upward trajectory this season, highlighted by claimed back-to-back wins at MIchigan and Phillip Island.
Borg will be one to watch at Oran Park, recording four top-five results this season.
Justin Ruggier remains on the pace this series, with the sim racing ace sitting second in the points.
A misstep from Kostecki could see Ruggier claim the championship with a race win worth 150 points.
Jarrard Filsell sits just five points behind Pro Series leader Madison Down, with the former fresh off his Bathurst enduro win.
The Erebus Pro driver has claimed two wins and a podium this season and could be set to overthrow Down in the finale.
THE FORM SEEKERS

Reuben Goodall continues to impress this season, combining with Gilliam to claim his second podium of the series.
The Matt Stone Racing driver is just 21 points behind fifth-place Brad Vaughan in the points.
Vaughan has been a consistent performer this season but is yet to reach the podium.
A good result for the Blanchard Racing Team driver could see him usurp Borg in the standings.
Jake Burton remains in the mix for a top-three finish in the points, despite his troubled outing at Mount Panorama last week.
THE ROUGHIES
Jayden Ojeda will be looking to record a top ten championship result for the season, continuing his impressive run of form this year.
Ojeda finished last alongside Dayne Warren at Mount Panorama, the duo hindered by internet connection issues,
Jordan Caruso could be an outside chance to claim a podium in the finale.
He sits fourth in the points.
Andre Heimgartner will be looking to climb his way back up into top contention after finishing outside the top ten at Bathurst.
Heimgartner has claimed two podiums this season.
Pro Series driver Josh Anderson will be looking to impress at Oran Park, he claimed the Aussie Racing Car Series title at Sandown last weekend.
