Chaz Mostert’s damaged Walkinshaw TWG Racing Toyota Supra.
Wood was the first of the Walkinshaw TWG Racing drivers to slip up, losing control of the #2 car at Reid Park on Lap 139 of 161.
Wood hit the outside concrete wall squarely, causing significant damage to the left-hand side of the Supra.
Despite the ferocity of the hit, Wood was able to return to the race late and be classified 24th with co-driver Jaxon Evans.
It was the second big hit for the New Zealander, who crashed at Forrest’s Elbow during Practice 3.
“First of all, a big credit to the guys and girls in the team, a massive effort to just get us out there, we knew it was going to be an uphill battle and it sure was today,” said Wood after Sunday’s race.
“Unfortunately, when you start last your odds are stacked against you and we just didn’t have the speed to really make any headways.
“In the end when you are pushing hard, you can get unstuck pretty quickly around here and that’s what happened for me.
“Just a big sorry to the crew and I’m really glad Chazzie is okay cause I know how it feels down there.”
Mostert fell victim to Forrest’s Elbow in similar circumstances to Wood on Lap 156.
The two-time Bathurst 1000 winner clipped the inside wall, which spat the car into the outside tyre barrier.
The violent hit with five laps to go relegated Mostert to watching the final few laps from the elbow.
“Just six laps from home and unfortunately binned the car at the elbow, just locked the rears a little bit, you use that kind of balance of the car to rotate the car in but late in the afternoon and I got a bit too narrow,” said Mostert.
“The hit was pretty big but I was lucky to hit the tyres not the concrete wall. I’m gutted for our whole team, sponsors and fan support.
“As much as I am gutted, we are will regroup and get ready for Round 1 of the finals in a couple of weeks time.”
Mostert and Wood will be back on track soon for the Gold Coast 500 on October 23-25.
With a short turnaround time, Walkinshaw TWG has elected to put Mostert into its spare chassis – WR 029.
