When preparing a race car Darren Brent really likes to cover all aspects. His late model Mazda MX5 has been carefully modified to ensure it is more than competitive in the Hill climb and race circuit scene. With modified camshaft, exhaust, suspension and brakes it is not surprising that he has stood on the podium at the Noosa Hill climb every year over the past 4 years. Of course having a varied driving experience also contributes with winning his class three years in a row at Leyburn, second in the “rookie” class at Targa Tasmania and third in class at the Mt Buller Sprint driving a Mazda RX2. Seems Mazda is in the blood.
When asked why The Hill Darren said “I certainly rate The Hill as one of THE events to enter, not only as a bucket list essential for any motorsport enthusiast but also as an ongoing challenge and privilege. The events team are down to earth, professional and highly committed having successfully hosted this iconic hill climb since 1998”.
Come along to the Noosa Beach Winter Hill climb 13-15 June and catch up with Darren in the pit area.
