The second half-hour of running kicked off with Walkinshaw Andretti United leading the way, initially thanks to Mostert, who was then usurped by Ryan Wood after 12 minutes.<\/p>\n

There was some more shuffling at the midway point of the session, full-time debutant Jayden Ojeda enjoying a brief stint on top before Matt Payne lowered the benchmark to a 1m08.987s.<\/p>\n

The session then came alive in the closing minutes as focus switched to pre-qualifying performance runs.<\/p>\n

Initially it was Cam Hill that went fastest, before Mostert jumped to the top on one lap, and he widened his margin at the top on the next.<\/p>\n

He was then pipped by Reynolds at the flag, the veteran capping off a strong day for Team 18 by topping the session by six-hundredths of a second.<\/p>\n

Despite missing out on top spot, Mostert still emerged from Friday as the fastest of the Finals contenders, his closest title rival Broc Feeney fourth fastest behind Anton De Pasquale.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s quite tricky, you don\u2019t know how you feel,\u201d said Mostert. \u201cTrack grip is so low here, you\u2019re kind of dancing around. But everyone is dancing around.<\/p>\n

\u201cGood confidence-building day for us. Reynolds and De Pasquale are really fast this weekend. We\u2019ve got a bit of tuning to do to make the car a bit better. But the car feels like it\u2019s around the window.\u201d<\/p>\n

James Golding was fifth fastest ahead of Cooper Murray, while Will Brown was seventh. The reigning champion missed his opportunity to improve right at the end thanks to a spin at Turn 4 on his final lap.<\/p>\n

Cam Waters was one of just three Mustangs in the Top 10 in eighth with Hill shuffled back to ninth and Ryan Wood 10th.<\/p>\n

Ojeda ended up 12th for the session ahead of Finals contender Thomas Randle, while Matt Payne and Kai Allen were the worst-placed of those in the title race in 15th and 16th respectively.<\/p>\n

Qualifying for Race 1 kicks off at 11:50am local time tomorrow.<\/p>\n
