Van Gisbergen clocked a 1:29.9100s in Car #97 as compared to Heimgartner’s 1:29.9663s in the #8 R&J Batteries Camaro, with Broc Feeney pipping Bryce Fullwood (#14 Middy’s Camaro) to third by 0.0508s.

Repco Supercars Championship leader Brodie Kostecki (#99 Coca-Cola Camaro) took fifth in the 15-minute session at a sunny Eastern Creek, with Cameron Waters best of the Ford drivers in sixth in the #6 Monster Energy Mustang.

Only the PremiAir Racing duo set a time on their very first runs, Tim Slade (#23 Nulon Camaro) clocking a 1:31.4609s before James Golding (#31 Nulon Camaro) set a 1:30.8168s.

Will Davison (#17 Shell V-Power Mustang) then split them on a 1:31.2169s but the first driver to make a real impact was Waters with a 1:30.4904s.

The fastest lap was quickly reset by David Reynolds (#26 Penrite Mustang), Anton De Pasquale (#11 Shell V-Power Mustang), and then Kostecki.

The latter was thus fastest ahead of the final runs on a 1:30.2569s, with van Gisbergen second on a 1:30.3832s and De Pasquale third on a 1:30.4406s.

Such was the rollout for the final runs, it was effectively a shootout for all 25 drivers.

The chequered flag was unfurled and Kostecki moved to top spot on a 1:30.2152s before Fullwood clocked a 1:30.1675s and then Heimgartner moved into provisional pole.

Waters finished 0.3361s off the pace in sixth, ahead of Mark Winterbottom (#18 DeWalt Camaro), Reynolds, De Pasquale, and Will Brown (#9 Coca-Cola Camaro) in 10th.
