TMR Performance has won round
three of the 2011 Australian Manufacturers Championship in another
dominant display by its Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution, driven by Stuart
Kostera and Ian ‘Inky’ Tulloch.
Held
at Morgan Park, Aug 13-14 2011, the Evo X qualified on pole position by
0.6 seconds, and in each of the one-hour 39-lap races, jumped to a
lead, temporarily relinquished only during the mandatory pit-stop. The
result was reinforced in race two, with Kostera/Tulloch winning the
60-minute race by a convincing 23 seconds.
Leading
an Evolution podium, Kostera and Tulloch beat the two Evolution IXs of
Dylan Thomas and Jim Pollicina in both races, with the Mazda3 MPS of
Jake Camilleri placed fourth.
The
win continues a dominant and unbeaten run for the TMR team in 2011,
with the team targeting its second back-to-back national championship.
The fourth round of the five-round championship continues at Sandown
Raceway, Victoria, Sept 9-11 2011, before the final round at the Eastern
Creek 8hr in Dec 9-11 2011.
TMR Performance builds and runs the Evolution X in production car races, tarmac rallies and a number of motorsport arenas.
