TGRA Scholarship Series driver Harry Bresnehan will make his GR Cup debut at The Mountain.

Bresnehan was selected for an evaluation day at Sydney Motorsport Park and given the nod to make a guest appearance with Toyota.
Will Brown picked Bresnehan for the Lucky Dogs Top Dog in-season challenge and remains in contention for the $20,000 prize with two rounds remaining.
