Quite simply one of the most incredible races in the history of B-Quik Absolute Racing and one the team will remember for many years.
That was last Sunday’s TSS The Super Series by B-Quik 2025 closing race of the third round (08-10.08.2025) held at Sepang International Circuit.
But first a recap of Saturday’s Race 1 which also involved late race drama as an unexpected appearance by the Safety Car during the dying minutes of the 1-hour encounter shook a settled order up.
That left a final mad dash for the line and the #26 Porsche driven by Henk Kiks and Sandy Stuvik was the car on our roster that capitalised the most to move up to finish third in Super Car GT3 and keep their impressive podium run this season going.
They were followed home by Haziq Oh and Aaron Lim in the #786 Audi who didn’t just finish an impressive fourth overall but also won GT3 AM after a clean run from pole, untroubled throughout the race by their closest rival.
There was less luck however for the sister Audi, the #27 shared by Akash Nandy and Adisak Tangphuncharoen, as they retired late race after showing hugely impressive pace.
Meanwhile, in Super Car GT4 the #32 Porsche driven by Iaro Razanakoto and Sathaporn Veerachue moved up the order during the race to finish second in Super Car GT4 AM.
So, we bagged points and podiums from Race 1 which setup Race 2 perfectly.
And what a thriller it turned out to be!
Dark clouds hung over the starting grid to give a nod to what might happen during the one hour ahead and in fact the racing gods waited until the final quarter of an hour of action before unleashing rain.
Lightning-fast work by the B-Quik Absolute Racing mechanics turned the cars around and onto wet tyres just as the Safety Car was deployed.
That left the big pack of two dozen cars trundling towards the flag with the clock rapidly ticking down.
Super Car races are 1 hour plus 1 lap and it would turn out we needed that extra lap!
The clock stopped on 1 hour and the Safety Car went in to leave a just single lap on cold tyres in wet conditions to decide the race.
Come the moment come the man. The #27 car had already been left with a mountain to climb after being hit by a overnight penalty that sent it to the back of the starting grid.
Local hero Akash made a stunning start, picking up places as the pack thundered down to Turn 1 when the lights went green and he drove a tenacious opening stint to hand over to Adisak where he could launch attacks over the closing laps.
The young B-Quik Junior driver faced a huge challenge as the rain came and he was left with just one lap to make up places if he wanted to challenge for the lead. And to make matters more difficult there were lapped cars mixed up into the running order.
An incredible lap from Adisak saw him outfox much more experienced drivers around him as he took advantage to storm into the race lead with just one corner left, scrabbling for grip on the wet track with tyres that weren’t up to temperature. It was the best race of his short career.
He delivered an incredible victory and then just a few cars lengths behind came the #786 Audi as the local crew, Lim and Oh, also gunned their car up the order to not only take the GT3 AM victory for the second consecutive day but to finish in a stunning second overall.
Not only a 1-2 finish but Kiks and Stuvik kept up their consecutive podium run this season to hand us the Teams’ trophy as icing on the cake.
An amazing and unforgettable day, one that will live on in our memories, a day where drivers, cars, technicians, engineers and strategists combined together to demonstrate what we are made of.
In Super Car GT4 there was less luck in Race 2 for Razanakoto and Veerachue. Their race ended early while locked in a battle for the lead.
TSS The Super Series returns to Sepang from 19 to 21 September.
