Entering his fourth year as a full-time driver in the V8 Supercars Championship, Tim Slade lines up for his third straight season driving one of three cars operated by Stone Brothers Racing in Queensland.

With the support of long-time backer James Rosenberg, Slade has been able to prove himself as one of the ‘coming men’ of V8 Supercar racing.

Slade entered the V8 Supercars Championship in 2009 after two years in the Development Series and, after a slow start in the second Supercheap Auto Commodore run by paul Morris Motorsports, showed huge improvement to eventually claim top 10 results in the endurance races at Phillip Island and Bathurst.

The former South Australian stamped his mark as a man to watch back in 2006 by finishing runner-up in the Australian Formula Ford Championship.

He debuted in the Development Series in 2007 and his second year in 2008 proved to be one of his best. Slade won his first race and round at Wakefield Park but also rounded out the season with a podium at Oran Park and took victory in the Privateer’s Cup for the best non-Level 1 affiliated team and driver in the Fujitsu Series.

Slade’s long-time backer Rosenberg has been involved in Australian motorsport for over two decades and purchased a Racing Entitlements Contract from Paul Cruickshank to take more control of the duo’s destiny for the duo’s move to SBR from 2010 onwards.

A breakthrough weekend last year at Queensland Raceway – where he scored his first-ever V8 Supercars Championship podium finish and backed it up with two more over the weekend – showed that Slade has the speed and race craft to mix it with the best of the best.
