LOS ANGELES, Jan. 15, 2013: A 2013 Liqui-Moly Bathurst 12 Hour field predominantly made up of Australia- and New Zealand-based teams will see one U.S.-based team make the voyage as Tujunga, Calif.-based Competition Motorsports will field a 2012 Porsche 911 GT3 Cup for Australian cousins Alex and James Davison and Los Angeles-based Australian driver David "CJ" Calvert-Jones, in the "Ultimate Aussie Endurance Race" on February 8-10, 2013.
The once-around-the-clock event will be held on the 6.213-km (3.861-mile) Mount Panorama Circuit in Bathurst, New South Wales. The Competition Motorsports-prepped racecar left Los Angeles three weeks ago and will run with support from Australia Porsche stalwart, McElrea Racing, in the B class. Competition Motorsports owner Bob Faieta will work alongside the McElrea Racing crew as team manager at Bathurst.
"Competition Motorsports is proud to be a part of the 'Australian Adventure,'" said Faieta. "We have prepped a top notch car and have three brilliant drivers ready to do battle Down Under. We look forward to traveling to Australia and feel quite confident we will have a winning run. Hopefully this will be a great kick off to a possible American Le Mans Series season with CJ."
