In front of grandfather Dick and father Steve, Jett Johnson became another third generation driver to win a major touring car title by claiming the TA2 Muscle Car Series – framed by HYTEK at the final round at Winton Raceway.

The series battle came down to the wire, with Johnson’s NAPA Auto Parts Mustang taking the title by 108 points from the Illawarra Engineering Services Camaro of Graham Cheney, with Nicholas Bates Mustang in third overall and winner of the Circo Master Class. Cheney battled all weekend to finish after suffering a lung infection and spending time in ECU in the lead up to the weekend.

Johnson now sits alongside another thirdgeneration racer in Aaron Seton to have won a TA2 title. Cheney finished the season in second overall from Nicholas Bates in third who claimed the Circo Master class series win and the Racetech Rookie of the Year Award.
