Two Renault Mégane RS TCR cars will join the growing grid for the inaugural TCR Australia Series; they will be entered and prepared by Garry Rogers Motorsport, which is expanding its involvement, having previously confirmed it will run two Alfa Romeo Giulietta Veloce cars.
The drivers of the GRM-entered Renault cars will be confirmed in the coming weeks, while the cars are expected to arrive in Australia next month.
Team owner Garry Rogers said: “We had a look at what vehicles were available and see what would suit us. We purchased two Alfa Romeo cars and we’ve now purchased two Renault Mégane as well. We see this category as the growth phase of motorsport in Australia. We love our V8s, we love what we do, but there’s certainly room for this category in the motorsport landscape. There’s no doubt that these TCR Series cars suit the modern audience and the demographic. For us, the Renault Mégane is a great vehicle of choice. It’s a trendy car, and the results that we’ve seen so far in testing is that it is fast and it is very competitive. Now, we need to make sure that we have the right drivers and the right people preparing them to get the best results."
