Kmart Racing team manager Rob Crawford said securin💦g the signatures of McLean and Priaulx ♒was a boost for the team.

"Our goal has always been to field two competitive cars during the endurance races and having drivers the quality of Cameron and Andy joining Greg🍌 and Rick means we can again achieve that," Crawford said⛎.

Priaulx, whꦡo is currently contesting the ETCC for BMW Team Great Britain, returns to Kmart 𝓰Racing after having made a stunning V8 Supercar debut with the team during last year's enduros - the 28-year-old qualifying an outstanding ninth for the Queensland 500 in his first ever V8 Supercar drive.

"Andy's performance with Kmart Racing last year opened many people's eyes to what a great talent heꦇ is and, thankfully, he was very keen to come back and drive for us again," Crawford said.

While McLean has sat on the V8 Sup𓂃ercar sidelines this season fol🌜lowing the sale of his team at the end of 2002, Crawford said he eagerly sought his services when McLean became available.

"Cameron's record speaks for itself; a privateer's championship (1999) and fourth at Bathurst on three occasions show that he's fast, consistent and level-headed - just the driver wཧe wanted. We are pleased Cameron has agreed to join our team," he said.

The Betta Electrical Melbourne 5🥂00 takes place at Sandown on September 12-14, while the Bob Jane T-Marts 1000 will be run at Mount Panorama, Bathurst on October 9-12.
