Dick Johnson Racing

Yeah, decisions are overdue.

Speaking of co-driver spots, one team that we don't think Dave would end up at if he does need to co-drive is Dick Johnson Racing because there is plenty of chat out there that obviously Tony Dalberto has retired from supercars racing and won't be partnering with Roland Gray next year.

and it seems that Nash Morris has emerged as a very, very strong favorite to take over the co-driver of the number 38 Shell Ford Mustang.

Yeah, it was interesting to see the reaction to this story because there was a fair few people surprised about it, but when you look at it in the context of He's very good mates with Brodie Kostecki through Norwell.

But I would think Camaro would be the obvious choice for next weekend.

Now, speaking of genuine four-footers, Dick Johnson Racing is searching for a new co-driver after Tony Delberto announced his retirement from Supercars Enduro Cup duties today.

TD's time behind the wheel at DJR included third-place finishes in 2017 alongside Fabian Coulthard in 2023 with Anton Di Pasquale.

He'll stay with the team as an ambassador and probably do some GT racing, but Supercars, that's it.

She's all over Red Rover.

Yeah.

Yeah, probably.

Now, it makes me wonder about what's around for DJR.

And not so much a team order over the radio, but Triple Eight being very crafty and showing their experience.

Of course, DJR Team Penske, they hadn't been in that position for quite a few years up to that point.

So...

And that's going to be something that we see through finals as well.

It's an amazing story.

And Dick Johnson Racing, the team that he started, is still operating today.

They now race in the current Mustang GT and are the oldest team still competing in Supercar Championship.

Ooh, that's cool.

yep.

And I'm glad to see Dick Johnson Racing get the win.

Yeah, pretty happy with the event calendar towards the end

of the year.

And on the other side, obviously Camo had a big spin as well, but then they had the drive-through penalty for the refueling breach where they topped up the tower, which you're allowed to do in the enduro races, but not on the Gold Coast.

And we saw Dick Johnson Racing make that mistake last year.

And that was a team penalty last year, so it was 100 points.

This year it was a driver penalty because it was a PLP.

Sorry, Grove Racing, Triple Eight, or even Walkinshaw, is that they've got one drive in the finals that they can focus all their attention to.

Same with Dick Johnson Racing and Brodie Kostecki.

Roland Gray... and thomas randall their respective teammates are a non-factor here so far and we saw last year just how much that rear gunner role can play with ryan wood and chas mostert so look it depends which cam waters we get on the weekend i'm really hoping that that it's the one that we saw in darwin and not the one that we saw at bat but you just don't know yeah you going in going and saying that i bet your cam will brain everyone and might even sweep uh both races

Well, this is the point of the interview where I will point out that you did make some predictions going into the final rounds last year and got them horribly wrong, apart from the final one that you copied from me.

Did we not? He's got the jersey.

Dick Johnson Racing.

Dick Johnson.

Back in the Polestar days.

Well,

it was another sensational finish at Bathurst, and it was won by the Dick Johnson Racing Team.

Well, Brodie Kostecki was the man that went out of line, but his co-driver, Todd Hazelwood, joins us now.

G'day, Todd.

Brilliant stuff.

Todd Hazelwood, our guest.

Of course, Dick Johnson Racing Team, number 17.

And what a win it was in Bathurst.
