We've never turned up to a Supercars round without Garry Rogers Motorsport on the grid. Today's news is indeed sad but proof that nothing in life, or motorsport, is forever. We’ll see you at tracks in future but hope your Supercar time ends in GRM style over the next three rounds

It looks like a regular mid-‘90s stock car, but under its panels is NASCAR’s axed road-racing prototype from the mid-‘80s! Tap the pic for the full story 🔽
