Courtney tests SBR Falcon.

Stone Brothers Racing has completed its sixth and final test of the V8 Supercar season, with Russell Ingall, Marcos Ambrose and new boy James Courtney all taking to the track at Queensland Raceway.

Courtney did several laps as a passenger with alongside two-time and defending champion Ambrose in the Pirtek Falcon, before having the chance to have a drive himself.

Courtney, who will replace Ambrose at SBR next season, will head to Japan for the final round of the Japanese GT Series before returning to Australia to join SBR at the final two rounds as a spectator at Symmons Plains in Tasmania and Phillip Island in Victoria.

"It really has been a great day," said Courtney. "There really is a difference between the Pirtek Falcon and the HRT car I drove at Sandown and Bathurst. Marcos showed me around with a few laps and what works for him, which was great. I modified that a bit for myself and got on with the test.

"Visually this car is a lot different for the driver with the steering, seat and other things being different. With this car I tend to sit a lot more towards the centre of the car. It really is like a new office where you need to learn where everything is.

"I really felt comfortable with the entire team from the get go and that is always a good sign."

SBR co-owner Ross Stone said he was more than impressed with the way all three drivers had performed during the day.

"James fitted into the team very well, Marcos did a solid job and Russell was certainly very quick at different stages," he said. "We got to try plenty of new things and hopefully a few tricks that might help us in the last couple of rounds.

"I think everyone has come out of the day feeling really positive about the whole deal."
