Brabham, driving a Mercedes-AMG GT4, set a 1m42.665s on a drying track to defeat Ryder Quinn for Race 1 pole in the Black Diamond Building and Construction BMW M4 GT4 G82.
Method Motorsport’s Marcos Flack was third making it three manufacturers in the top three positions driving one of the new McLaren Artura GT4s, while teammate Nathan Morcom will line up right beside him.
Rounding out the top five was the Miedecke Motorsport with Lubrimaxx Mustang GT4 of George Miedecke in its maiden appearance in Australia.
The third of the new Arturas, the DNA Racing Team example, will line up sixth with Josh Buchan, as the second Love Motorsport Mercedes-AMG GT4 of Antonio Astuti, the Method Motorsport Porsche of Lachlan Mineeff, Zoe Woods in the TekworkX Motorsport Cayman 718 GT4 and Tim Leahey in the Central West Prestige BMW M4 GT4 G82 rounded out the top 10.
Brabham was also on top in Silver Cup from Flack and Morcom, while Quinn led Pro-Am with Mineeff and Astuti the pursuers.
Leahey was leading Am Cup runner, but Vince Gucciardo in his Porsche is 12th and Tony Quinn 14th driving the Game Over Mercedes-AMG remain within touching distance for Race 1.
Take the short survey.
