TCM Fight at SMP, Workshop Grind & The Bend Ahead!

What a weekend at Sydney Motorsport Park for Round 4 of the Touring Car Masters! The Muscle Car Masters delivered high drama, ferocious racing, and a display of sheer resilience from Ryan Hansford and the team.

TCM Round 4 Recap: Sydney Motorsport Park

  • Qualifying: Ryan put the car 7th on the grid in an insanely tight qualifying session where split seconds made all the difference.
  • Trophy Race: Starting from 17th in the reverse-grid thriller, Ryan carved his way through the field to finish an incredible 5th.
  • Race 1: After a strong launch, bad luck struck—Ryan was spun around, recovering to cross the line in 13th.
  • Race 2: Masterclass drive! Charging from 13th up to 7th, Ryan logged the 3rd fastest lap of the race.
  • Race 3: Starting 7th, Ryan drove a smart, aggressive race to finish 4th.

With two rounds remaining, Ryan sits 2nd in class and 3rd overall in the championship standings!

Workshop Hustle: Mustang #227 Rebuilt

It’s all hands-on deck back at the workshop. The crew has been pulling marathon hours rebuilding the #227 Mustang following its heavy damage at Darwin. Thanks to incredible work in the panel shop, both front rails have been completely replaced. The car will be fully assembled before the team heads out to South Australia.

It’s a non-stop logistics puzzle—as soon as the transporter returns from “The Bend,” the TCM cars come off, and the GT4 Mustangs get loaded immediately for their upcoming round.

What’s Next on the Calendar?

  • Round 5 TCM: This weekend at Shell V-Power Motorsport Park, Tailem Bend.
  • Round 5 GT4 Championship: September 18–20 at Sydney Motorsport Park.
  • TCM Grand Finale: October 8–11 at the legendary Mount Panorama, Bathurst.
