Nick Foster has secured the 2015 Porsche Carrera Cup Australia title after finishing third in race two at Gold Coast.
Foster, now untouchable in the standings, was lost for words after achieving the incredible feat.
“Iโm absolutely speechless. I have to thank everybody โ Mick, Maria, Rod, Mike, my family,” said an emotional Foster.
“Iโm stoked. That last race wasnโt easy. I could feel every vibration, every marble and kerb that I hit, I saw every wall; it was the worst race Iโve ever had!
“This means so much to me, I canโt describe it. It is incredible. This is by far the highlight of my career; itโs the most amazing thing Iโve ever experienced.
After scoring no points from the open four races of the season, Foster turned a 298 point deficit into a 70 point lead drivers standing with one race to go.
“Who would have thought that weโd come back from nearly 300 points behind to secure the championship with a race to go. Itโs pretty incredible. As I said at the start of the year, this team is incredible, the car is incredible and has continued to be all year. I let them down in the first couple of races of the year and itโs nice to reward them for all the effort that they put in and get the job done.”
Race two was won by Matt Campbell from David Russell, Foster and Craig Baird.
