While much of the discussion around the V8 Supercar paddock is about the chan🎀ging of the guard at numerous teams and numerous sponsor changes Larkham - Orrcon Racing are currently enjoying one of their most stable off sea🔜son periods.

Both drivers Jason Bargwanna and Mark Winterbottom will be remaining in the familiar #💜10 and #20 Orrcon Racing Falcons for the 2005 Championship along with ꦜthe same engineers that helped them to their impressive results during 2004.

Bargwanna's eighth place in the championship highlighted the team's continual improvement to reward Larkham Moto🌱r Sport with their best result in the championship since their inception in 1995. Bargwanna was also the first Ford driver in the series behind the title winning Stone Brothers Racing outfit.

Bargwanna finished the ye🔥ar on a strong run of form, claiming five top ten results in the final seven rounds, including a podium finish on the Gold Coast.

While pleased with the finish to last season, 🍨Bargwanna is looking for bigger and better things from the team in 2005.

"Last year was another step in the continued development if th൲e team and a reward for the hard work put in by the guys," he said. "This year it is time to take that next step and become a serious top five contender in the championship all year long."

With a stable outfit for the 2005 season team owner Mark Larkham is confident of good res꧟ults in the Championship this year.

"Potentially🍌 our greatest asset going into 2005 is the stability of our team, this is very important in what is such a volatile indus🌞try," he said. "I contribute our ability to achieve our results and stability to a good team culture and environment.

"Coming off the break with a lot of stability in the team w꧂ill allow us to build a good foundation and complete some engineering improvements on the cars which will in turn ensure that that we hit the ground running in 2005.

"Whilst we have a new car as a part of out plans for the year the emphasis with our resources to ensure that we get the 'best bang for our buck' is to focus on engineering improvements on our current cars this way we haven't go🔜t the overhanging pressure on the team to build a new car in a short time."

"We are positi💞oned as well as we have ever been leading into a championship and coupled with the strong 𝐆performances in the latter half of last year I have a good feeling about the year ahead."
