Porter finishes 2004 season on podium with TKR
5/9/2004 23:08 (Press Release) -
Kiwi Mark Porter has finished the 2004 Konica Minolta V8 Supercar Season on the podium and as the only Holden in the top seven of the 2004 Championship.
In Porters first season with Team Kiwi Racing running the Hydraulink
sponsored Konica Minolta V8 Supercar, a podium finish by Porter and to be the "only Holden home in the top seven of the Championship" is a great achievement by all involved.
"This has been the toughest Konica Minolta V8 Supercar Championship I have been involved with so far and I am sure next season will only be tougher yet again"
"To finish on the podium is a great honour against such strong competition but most of the credit must go to the TKR crew who have given me a very good race package all year". Says Porter
Porter now looks forward to his next assignment with TKR when he co drives with TKR's lead V8 Supercar driver Craig Baird in the teams All Black Machine at the Betta Electrical Sandown 500 and Bob Jane Bathurst 1000 endurance events.
