Trewhella Joins Fuel Burna Motorsport for WA Title Defence
Defending Western Australian Offroad Champion Adam Trewhella has announced he will be joining forces with Mark Cramer at Fuel Burna Motorsport in 2023, sponsored by the Cramer’s owned business Make Tracks WA. Perth based Trewhella is set to launch his title defence this weekend at the Perenjori 360 in the teams Rimco Pro Buggy, where he will proudly display his new teams livery.
On the back of an outstanding 2022 season which saw Trewhella secure back to back outright victories at Perenjori and Bencubbin, plus a second outright at the iconic Gas Dash, the newest member of Fuel Burna Motorsport has reason to be confident heading into the season opener.
“I started out last year really just wanting seat time, to get to know the car and to finish a few races, I picked up outright victory’s in the first two events, with my dad Craig as the navigator at Perenjori which was special for the team and a 2nd overall at the Gascoyne Dash. Which was enough for us to claim the championship,” exclaimed Trewhella.
Makes Tracks WA is regarded as Perth’s leading 4WD accessories supplier and fitter, a brand Trewhella and crew are delighted to be representing throughout this season after their breakout 2022 campaign. “This year is pretty much more of the same, I just love driving the car. We would obviously like to defend the number 1 plate in WA, but at the same time to finish some races and get a few podiums will be a good result for us”.
Trewhella’s success last year and scheduled title defence in 2023 would not be possible without his amazing sponsors who have all contributed immensely to their racing endeavours. Firstly, to the major sponsors Koby and Sandee Grant at KRT Contracting, Shane and Jody Elphinstone at Elphinstone Mechanical Services and Shannon at Tunecorp who has built and tuned Trewhella’s new 402 cube combo engine which is set to unleashed on Saturday. Also to the minor sponsors Racer Imports, Penrite, Jarrahfire Drilling, Luke Erceg at Erceg Custom Engineering and Borneo’s Race Prep for their ongoing support and commitment.
