End Of An Era At GRM
V8X Supercar Magazine|February - March 2019 Issue 109

Garry Rogers Motorsport’s decision to let Garth Tander go to make way for Richie Stanaway suggests further changes are on the way for one of Supercars’ oldest teams.

End Of An Era At GRM

It had been a relatively tame silly season, with Craig Lowndes’ full time retirement and Mark Winterbottom and Lee Holdsworth swapping seats being the only significant changes. Then, early in the new year, Garry Rogers Motorsport (GRM) dropped a bombshell.

The team was dumping Garth Tander to make way for Tickford Racing refugee Richie Stanaway as teammate to James Golding, with Boost Mobile signing on as naming rights sponsor to form the Boost Mobile Racing Team.

Tander made his Supercars debut with GRM in 1998 and took the team’s only Bathurst 1000 win and best championship finish (second) in 2000. After a seven-year stint with GRM, Tander moved to factory Holden teams HSV Dealer Team and the Holden Racing Team before returning to GRM in 2017 with an eye on transitioning from driving to managerial duties. Tander and Garry Rogers’ son Barry had looked set to take over the running of the team before the news of Tander’s departure.

We rank the top 60 with an emphasis on best championship finishes, race-winning percentage and competitive longevity.
