\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tTodd Hazelwood drove for TFH Racing in the Trans Am Series.<\/p>\n

The two-time Trans Am title winner has launched a new business, \u2018Todd\u2019s Garage\u2019, focused on racing, restorations, tuning, and projects.<\/p>\n

Having parted ways in the offseason with TFH Racing, Todd\u2019s Garage will run a single Ford Mustang Trans Am for Hazelwood\u2019s push for a championship three-peat.<\/p>\n

The move to establish his own team is somewhat of a return to the South Australian\u2019s roots. Known for doing it his own way, Hazelwood funded much of his junior career via sausage sizzles.<\/p>\n

Todd\u2019s Garage will produce video content covering project car builds, starting the business, and running the race team.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m super excited to launch my new business, Todd\u2019s Garage, and share the journey for everyone to enjoy watching at home,\u201d Hazelwood said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe idea of Todd\u2019s Garage actually started during the Covid pandemic as I was thinking of new ideas and ways to incorporate my love and passion for motorsport, restoration and cars all together and since have been working on ways to bring this all to life.<\/p>\n

\u201cAlthough I\u2019m starting out small with a single car under Todd\u2019s Garage, it\u2019s an exciting step in my career and taking full ownership of the whole program from top to bottom.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m essentially a one-man band with this project, and it\u2019s going to be awesome creating a new business from scratch, going racing, and taking on some of the best teams in the country with my garage operation from home.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe world we live in today is so heavily focused on content and I felt there was a gap in the automotive market to try something different and create a new way to work on some cool cars along with some amazing brands and do some epic projects together.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hazelwood follows in the footsteps of fellow two-time champion Nathan Herne in leaving an established outfit to take the owner\/driver route.<\/p>\n

The livery for Hazelwood\u2019s Mustang will be unveiled on March 29. The Trans Am Cup Series commences on April 3-5 at the Bathurst 6 Hour in a combined event with the TA2 Muscle Car Series.<\/p>\n
