Morcom Motorsport Head into Bathurst 12 Hour in Good Shape                      13-2-09

The Morcom Motorsport team have made no secrets about their intentions heading into this year’s Bathurst 12 Hour at Mount Panorama in Central Western NSW on the weekend of February 20 - 22 and that is to challenge for the winning honours and nothing else.

This year’s Bathurst 12 Hour line-up for the Morcom Motorsport team is lead driver and team owner Barry Morcom and he is to be joined by the experienced pair of Luke Searle and Paul Stubber in what promises to be a strong combination.

After finishing the past two Bathurst 12 Hours just off the podium in fourth place; the Morcom Motorsport team are keen to work their way into winning contention around the infamous Mount Panorama circuit.

“For the past two years we have been right up there and just had some bad luck and it has resulted in us dropping out of winning contention,” explained Morcom. “The Bathurst 12 Hour is a fabulous event at a fabulous circuit and one only has to look at the record list of entries and the calibre of drivers entered to realise what a special event this plays in the Australian Motorsport scene.”

Joining Morcom aboard his BMW 335i is Luke Searle, an ex Super Tourer racer and leading Production Car contender, and Paul Stubber, well regarded within the Historic Racing car community and he also boast a wide variety of Motorsport experience, and this forms a strong combination for the Morcom Motorsport team.

“I am very much looking forward to driving with both Luke [Searle] and Paul [Stubber] and I am confident we can do the job and bring home a good result at the completion of the Bathurst 12 Hour,” Morcom enthused. “Both Luke and Paul have plenty of experience and they both know what it takes to be successful in Endurance Races and there is no reason whatsoever why we cannot taste victory or at least feature on the podium.”

The Bathurst 12 Hour is to begin at 6am on Sunday morning and finish at 6pm on Sunday afternoon and it is certainly going to create plenty of challenges even for the most experienced of drivers.
