Outright Championship Driver and SXS Pro Championship Driver.
At the recent NSW Off Road Racing Championship presentation dinner, it was announced that Lachlan Campbell had emerged victorious as the Outright Championship Driver and SXS Pro Championship Driver.
Despite attending university 600kms away from home, Lachlan diligently balances academics with extensive travel, dedicating substantial time to the meticulous preparation of his race vehicle, engaging with sponsors, and actively participating in events with the assistance of his supportive friends.
Observers at race rounds may have noticed Lachlan's hands-on involvement, diagnosing issues with his vehicle between heats and ensuring it's race ready for the next challenge. His car has been race-proven with a 100% finishing rate in the 2023 NSW Off Road Racing Championship with plenty of class wins.
You may not realise that Lachlan does not simply arrive and drive just because his father Greg Campbell runs GRC Motorsport which builds off road racing vehicles, supports his many clients across Australia and is a seasoned national competitor.
Championships are won through consistency, a fact not lost on Lachlan. Amid inevitable challenges, he managed to accumulate crucial points throughout the season, recognising that every point contributes to the final standings.
Lachlan's victories in both the Outright Championship Driver and SXS Pro Championship Driver categories reflect not only his skill but also a mature and fast-paced driving style.
His exceptional progress over the past year positions him as one to watch in the coming years, as he sets his sights on larger events, aiming to establish himself as a formidable national competitor.
Congratulations to Lachlan for achieving the Outright Championship Driver and SXS Pro Championship Driver in the 2023 NSW Off Road Racing Championship.
Lachlan is a valued long term member of the Sydney Off Road Racing Association (SORRA).
