Sullivan targets GTS alongside Mini drive

-

Liam Sullivan is targeting one-off outings in British GT and the Creventic 24 Hour Series this year, after confirming a deal to race a Mini in Masters Historic Racing Pre-66 Touring Cars.

Sullivan arrived in the UK from Australia in 2015, and won the Mighty Mini Championsh­ip in his first season racing in the UK.

He spent last year testing random machinery in the hope of pulling together a budget for the Porsche Carrera Cup.

“There’s some other stuff in the pipeline, but I’m committed to the whole Masters season,” said Sullivan. “I’m looking to do some endurance races, British GT or the Endurance Series. Just some one-offs.”

Sullivan will race the Mini that won last year’s Pre-66 Touring Car Championsh­ip in the hands of Jonathan Lewis, sharing with Lewis.

“When I first got to England I was in the [Mighty] Mini to start with. I met Jonathan Lewis, I raced for him in 2015. I caught up with him at a kart track recently and we put the deal together.

“He won the championsh­ip last year so the aim is to go and win the title again with him.”
