PROD CARS JOIN BATHURST INTERNATIONAL
The Australian Production Car Series will conclude its season at Mount Panorama, joining the Australian Racing Group’s Bathurst International bill.
It will be the fifth and final round of the series, with a grid capacity of 55-entries which is expected to be filled.
Regular competitors will receive a ‘season pass’ to ensure their spot on the grid, with Ontic Sports General Manager Troy Williams excited by the announcement.
“Mount Panorama is always the number one circuit for all motor sport competitors when it comes to their wish lists – Ontic Sports’ competitors are no different,” Williams said.
“With the rising profile of the Bathurst International, it is also great recognition that the MRF Tyres Australian Production car series continues to be the premiere sprint series for 3E Production Cars nationally.
“Launching today, we have 40 APC season passes available which will allow our regulars to enter for all of our APC events for 2021, while also guaranteeing their spot on the grid for the Bathurst International.
“Beyond the Season Pass holders, the remaining Bathurst International APC grid spots will be open throughout the year for expressions of interest from non-regular competitors, via the APC website. Invitations to compete for non-regular APC competitors will be distributed in the first week of October, based on the EOIs submitted by that time.”
As in previous years, the APC will join the Shannons Motorsport Australia Championships, beginning at Sydney Motorsport Park on May 1-2, followed by Morgan Park on June 25-27, Sandown Raceway on September 10-12 and The Bend Motorsport Park on October 15-17.
It will be the second event Production Cars will contest at Mount Panorama, after the standalone Bathurst 6 Hour last weekend, also run by ARG.
