Victorian gamer Travis Lacey came out on top in an eventful end to the Dunlop Race to Reality competition.
Eight weekly winners were announced and given the rare opportunity to battle it out in an iRace against Ford V8 Supercar driver Mark Winterbottom recently which proved to be a hot contest from start to finish.
The opening laps saw three different race leaders with Winterbottom coming home as the winner of the Phillip Island race and Travis coming through in second place.
Lacey, wins return flights to the Gold Coast and one night accommodation for himself and a friend.
Lacey will compete in the Racecentre's Race to Reality grand final against 15 other contestants in a full-motion simulator with the winner of that round earning a paid driver's entry in the final round of the 2013 Aussie Racing Cars Championship at Sydney Olympic Park from December 6-8.
The other weekly winners didn't go home empty handed however, each winning a Dunlop Podium cap signed by various V8 Supercars and international drivers.
The weekly winners were: Ashley Erickson (Vic), Steve Gilliland (Qld), Shane Moore (Qld), Stewart Chapman (Qld), Rodney Baker (NSW), Travis Lacey (Vic) and Simon Baker (NSW).
