Collector medallion with clear acrylic display stand
Penrite Racing pair Matthew Payne and Garth Tander pulled off a remarkable win at the 2025 Repco Bathurst 1000, claiming victory in a race filled with incredible drama, changing weather, and relentless competition which will go down as one of the best ever in the history of The Great Race.
Driving the #100 Penrite backed Ford Mustang, the duo started all the way back in 18th position but steadily climbed the field through smart strategy and consistent pace. The race, held at the iconic Mount Panorama Circuit, was disrupted by rain showers and several safety cars, which tested the nerves and focus of every driver.
As the race entered its chaotic final stages, a late clash between Cooper Murray and James Golding set the stage for Payne to pounce. Golding initially crossed the line first, but a five-second penalty for his part in the incident dropped him down the order, officially handing the win to Payne and Tander. It was a thrilling finish, with Payne showing incredible composure under pressure, while Tander used his vast experience to guide the effort from the garage.
The win marked Payne’s first Bathurst 1000 victory and added a sixth crown to Tander’s legendary career, placing him among the most successful drivers in the event’s history. Their triumph was a mix of youthful hunger and veteran wisdom, proving that determination and resilience can turn a tough start into a historic win. It was a fairytale result for the Grove Racing team and a race that will be remembered as one of Bathurst’s modern classics.
