25.01.2022 Looks like its going to be a wet track for the running of the Sandown 500 this weekend.

22.01.2022 Top driving Kade. Good clean driving by all. Well done!!!

22.01.2022 NEWCASTLE 500 Race Kade has completed the final round of the Toyota 86 racing series over the weekend at the Newcastle 500. The Newcastle track is a very tight street circuit, with plenty of cars making contact with the walls. Kade completed the final race for the weekend in 19th position. This brought his series standings to 26th Overall for this year out of 56 drivers. Great achievement for his first year. We are extremely proud of Kades efforts this year, as he really... was thrown in at the deep end. With no real prior racing experience, he joined one of the most competitive circuit racing classes in the country at a National level. This series is a large field of cars, usually 34- 40 cars and the lap times are very close and there is usually less than 3 seconds difference from the front of the pack to the rear. Kade has managed to consistently improve his times and keep up with the pace. Within the Toyota 86 racing series, the fellow competitors and organisers are a great bunch of people who are always willing to share information. Kade has benefited from mentoring with experienced drivers such as Paul Morris, Jason Bargwanna, Steve Owen and Robbo "The 86 Whisperer" Kade is looking forward to getting more seat time in the car next year and hopefully the new Townsville Precinct, which has been years in the planning by DriveIt NQ will be just the place for it. We are excited about next years racing in the 86 and some big changes that are coming. The Toyota 86 has proven to be an awesome car with great handling, not just to race but for street use also. Go test drive one today, youll love it.

18.01.2022 Congratulations Kade Crawford on an outstanding drive today in the Toyota 86. After eight months of no racing Kade was keen to get out on the track. Todays practice session saw him achieve a personal best time around this track and he continued on to the qualifying session with good pace. Race 1 brought some issues with vehicle temps climbing slightly so a precautionary back off the pedal was in order. The team is looking to sort this hopefully for tomorrows run. Kade finished race 1 in 2nd place for his class. Great driving Kade and good luck for tomorrow.

06.01.2022 Kadco Race Team Update: Yesterdays practice sessions went well with a mixed bag of rain and sunshine. Track was mostly wet. Qualifying saw some collisions which resulted in lap times being recorded under red flag conditions. This meant that Kades fastest time of 1.30.1 was not recorded. Kade started today for race one in pos 30 on the grid. He quickly made his way up to 24th position and maintained this for most of the race. Two missed gear changes on the second last ...lap resulted in some lost places. Track was reasonably dry and Kade reported the car felt good. The weather here in Melbourne is ever changing, it was jumpers on, jumpers off all day yesterday and today is turning out to be just as unpredictable.
