The 2025 Repco Bathurst 1000 was a race for the ages, and the build-up to the Great Race was just as thrilling, with the annual Top 10 Shootout once again delivering a spectacular show for motorsport fans.

After topping Friday’s qualifying to secure provisional pole, Shell V-Power Racing Team’s Brodie Kostecki rose to the occasion again on Saturday afternoon when it really counted.

Last out on track in the Shootout, Kostecki and the #38 Shell V-Power Mustang delivered under pressure — setting a blistering 2:04.0413s lap to seal pole position for the 1000km epic around Mount Panorama. His effort narrowly eclipsed Tickford rival Cam Waters’ impressive 2:04.2173s to claim the top spot.

The result marked Kostecki’s third consecutive Bathurst 1000 pole after his 2023 and 2024 successes with Erebus Motorsport — an extraordinary feat that sees him join legends Peter Brock (1977–1979) and Allan Moffat (1970–1972) as only the third driver in history to achieve the hat-trick. It also represented the fourth official Bathurst pole for the iconic Dick Johnson Racing outfit.

This 1:43 scale model is scheduled to be produced in high quality sealed body die-cast with clear windows, detailed racing cockpit and undercarriage details unique to the Gen3 floorpan.

Comprised of roughly 65 individual metal and plastic parts plus anywhere between 50-100 steps in paint and decoration finishing, this is a high quality collectors model for fans of this scale.

It is scheduled to be produced in an exclusive one-off limited edition, presented in a display case with the model attached to a white base plate which features the car details printed on it. An individually numbered backing board featuring the edition number is also included as part of the package and acts as the Certificate of Authenticity for the release.
