🏁 **MRT – McKENZIE RACING TEAM | A NEW CHAPTER AHEAD** 🏁

As we head into our last couple of race meetings for the year, we wanted to share some news about the direction of MRT moving forward.

Although the SKA Speedway season is only just getting underway, we have made the tough decision to step away from speedway racing for the remainder of this season.

This hasn't been an easy decision, but with very few genuine home meetings on the calendar and a major project sitting in the shed, we feel it's time to shift our priorities.

**One of our biggest goals is to have our Wingless Sprintcar completed and ready to hit the track before the end of this season.** It's something we've been working towards for some time, and we want to put the time, resources and effort into making that happen rather than spreading ourselves too thin across multiple racing programs.

**SO, WHAT DOES NEXT SEASON LOOK LIKE?**

We have some big plans taking shape for 2027, with our focus firmly on growing our karting program while getting our Wingless Sprintcar project across the finish line.

🏁 **A BIGGER DKOA PROGRAM**

We will be attending the SA Titles and NT Titles, while also considering making the trip to Jena for the WA Titles.

We're also looking to compete at more major race meetings throughout the season, giving Ivan and Danil opportunities to race against different competition, build confidence, develop their skills and continue pushing themselves as drivers.

🏎️ **MORE DRIVERS JOINING THE MRT LINE-UP**

Next season will also see Eva step into karting full-time, taking on the challenge of learning and developing in a senior kart. There will be plenty of learning, seat time and confidence building ahead as she continues her journey in the sport.

Tyrell will also be jumping into his own kart next season, returning to the dirt after a long absence from racing. It's great to have another driver joining the team and getting back behind the wheel!

💪 **THE WINGLESS SPRINTCAR PROJECT**

This is a big focus for us over the coming weeks. We want to get the car finished, sorted and ready to go before the end of the season. Stepping away from speedway now gives us the opportunity to put our full attention into making that happen.

**WE'RE LOOKING FOR NEW PARTNERS!**

With all these plans and an exciting new chapter ahead, now is the time for us to start looking for new businesses and partners who would like to come on board and be part of the MRT journey.

We're not just looking for sponsors; we're looking to build genuine partnerships with businesses who want to grow alongside our team.

There are opportunities to get involved across our karting program, interstate title campaigns and our Wingless Sprintcar project.

Whether you're a small local business or a larger company looking for exposure and involvement in grassroots motorsport, we'd love to have a conversation about what we can build together.

To our existing sponsors, supporters, family and friends, thank you for continuing to back us. Your support never goes unnoticed.

A new direction, new challenges, more drivers and plenty of racing ahead. 2027 is shaping up to be a big year for MRT!

🏁 **RENMARK RACE REPORT – MRT MCKENZIE RACING** 🏁

Another big day of racing for MRT McKenzie Racing at Renmark, with Ivan tackling both Statesman and 125 Medium, while Danil hit the track in KT Medium.

**🏎️ STATESMAN – IVAN**

Ivan continued trialling a few different things with the KT100, using the day to work through some changes and gather more information. Despite still fine-tuning the package, he managed to bring home a 3rd place finish for the night.

**🔥 125 MEDIUM – IVAN**

What a night for Ivan in 125 Medium!

The pace was there from the moment we hit the track, dominating and winning every race except for one unfortunate DNF.

Unfortunately, on the form-up lap for one of the races, the 10-tooth front sprocket snapped, putting an end to that race before it even started.

Despite the setback, Ivan had done enough across the night to secure 2nd overall on points.

**🏎️ KT MEDIUM – DANIL**

It was a bit of an ordinary night for Danil in KT Medium. After clipping the winrow twice throughout the night, he ended up with two DNFs, making it a tough day at the office. Despite the setbacks, Danil managed to finish 3rd for the day.

**🙌 A BIG THANK YOU**

A massive shout-out to Agro, who pushed Ivan throughout the day and also helped us get the 125 back out on track after our mechanical dramas.

A big thanks to Josh, who pushed Danil as the KT classes were all running together. We really appreciate both of you putting in the extra effort and helping us out!

And of course, we can't forget Eva, who officially took on the role of *"trolley bitch"* (in her own words 😂). Every race team needs someone to keep things moving!

A big thank you to all our sponsors and supporters for continuing to get behind MRT McKenzie Racing.

We also want to thank the **Renmark Dirt Kart Club, the track crew and all our fellow competitors** for putting on another great day of racing.

Plenty of positives, a few mechanical dramas and some lessons learnt. That's racing, and we'll take what we can from the weekend and get ready for the next one!
