SHANE VAN GISBERGEN

Shane spent his formative years racing ATVs on natural terrain motocross tracks and a Quarter Midget on speedway ovals before a brief but typically successful dalliance with karts. Since then he has been on a fast track to major Australasian success. In 2011, driving the #9 SP Tools Racing Falcon, Shane is well in the hunt for the Championship after scoring ten podium finishes last season.

TIM SLADE

Slade stamped his mark as a man to watch in 2006, when he finished runner up in the Australia Formula Ford Championship. Since then he has also seen success in the Fujitsu Development Series and this year is entering his second fulltime season with Stone Brothers Racing in the new-look #47 Lucky 7 Racing Falcon.
