Wildcard Kostecki keen to lean on established WAU Repco Supercars Championship By James Pavey
Being able to lean on two champion drivers and a champion team has Kurt Kostecki ready to maximise his three wildcard appearances for Walkinshaw Andretti United.
Kostecki will line up in a third WAU entry at this weekend’s OTR SuperSprint as part of a three-event wildcard campaign.
The 2019 Super2 runner-up will join 2020 Super2 champion Thomas Randle in an expanded 26-car grid for the Tailem Bend, Darwin and Perth events.
This weekend marks Kostecki’s first main game start since last October’s Bathurst 1000.
Kostecki, whose brother Jake and cousin Brodie will also be on the grid, made his full-time main game debut aboard a Kostecki Brothers Racing entry at the 2018 Tailem Bend and Ipswich events.

2022 Chevrolet Corvette this weekend at the 2021 OTR Supersprint Supercars Championship event.
Teasers posted to GM Speciality Vehicles’ (GMSV) social media accounts cryptically suggest something’s “Just around The Bend”, strongly hinting that punters will be able to get up close and personal with the long-awaited sports car at The Bend Motorsport Park this weekend in South Australia.
The car is expected to be involved in the “Final Roar” Holden tribute which will see various Holden models travel in convoy from the National Motor Museum in the Adelaide Hills to The Bend track in the state’s east. The tribute drive is designed to see off the Holden Commodore nameplate in the Supercars Championship, as teams move to the Chevrolet Camaro in 2022.
