Current Super 2 Series driver Cameron Crick will return to the V8 SuperUte Series this weekend at The Bend Motorsport Park as a \u2018super sub\u2019 for reigning champion Aaron Borg.<\/p>\n

The #1 ACDelco SRT Isuzu D-Max will be rebrand as the #118 DA Campbell Transport D-Max for this round only while Borg is in Europe looking into overseas opportunities; Borg will return for Round 4 at Sandown Raceway next month.<\/p>\n

Crick last raced in the V8 SuperUtes series in 2021 where he finished second on points, claiming race and round wins, and pole position at the season-opening round at the Tailem Bend circuit; the first round of the V8-powered era of the category.<\/p>\n

\u201cBorgy has been doing a mega job this season with his qualifying speed and race results so I will have big shoes to fill,\u201d admitted Crick. \u201cI\u2019ve definitely been keeping my eyes on the V8 SuperUtes this year because I\u2019ve had a lot of fun in these cars over the years. I\u2019ll be watching out for Dave Sieders and Ryal Harris who I know will be strong at The Bend.<\/p>\n

\u201cLast time I raced there in these cars I had a good weekend taking pole position and had a fair few podiums. But I\u2019m hoping to go a few spots better this weekend. I\u2019m really excited to get back with the Sieders Racing crew and have some fun!\u201d<\/p>\n

The Sydneysider\u2019s career includes finishing third outright in the Toyota 86 Series in 2018, runner-up honours in the V8 SuperUtes in 2019 and 2021, before springboarding into Super2 with Eggleston Motorsport last year. Just last week Crick also scored a class win in the Mobil 1 Australian Production Car Series at Queensland Raceway in Mitsubishi Lancer RS Evolution X.<\/p>\n
