Davison had to work for the fast lap, working his way through traffic in the BMW shared with Tim Leahey and Beric Lynton.<\/p>\n
Red flags affected the first half of Practice 4.<\/p>\n
Anthony Levitt\u2019s Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG ground to a halt on the way up Mountain Straight, citing a fuel pressure issue.<\/p>\n
As the field circulated back into pit lane, the #54 Ford Mustang of Tony Alford developed a fuel leak and a subsequent engine bay fire.<\/p>\n
Stopped in the fast lane, crews worked to quickly extinguish the fire.<\/p>\n
When the green flag once again flew, Davison quickly worked his way to the front of the queue to maximise the clean air.<\/p>\n
The two-time Bathurst 1000 winner set a 2:19.6313s lap, just fractions slower than the existing practice\/qualifying lap record.<\/p>\n
Last-minute substitute Cameron Hill slotted into second position in the BMW M2 shared with Dean Campbell.<\/p>\n
The second red flag was drawn when Aston Davis suffered an ABS issue, pitching the #128 Subaru BRZ into the Forrest\u2019s Elbow wall.<\/p>\n
Davis was ok, and co-driver Luke Vanna was confident that the team would be able to fix the damage ahead of qualifying.<\/p>\n
Vanna and Davis will be joined by production car regular Emily Caccaviello.<\/p>\n
Aaron Seton proved the impressive speed of the class A2 Mustang, setting the fastest middle sector time late in the session to slot into position three.<\/p>\n
Ryan MacMillan\/Tim Brook\/Tyler Cheney slotted into position four to be second in the A2 class.<\/p>\n
Michael Kavich\/Ben Kavich\/Thomas Randle rounded out the top five.<\/p>\n
Drew Russell\/Lachlan Mineeff\/Peter Lawrence topped the B2 class in 13th position outright.<\/p>\n
Class B1 was again topped by Karlie Buccini\/Courtney Prince\/Tabitha Ambrose, just ahead of teammates and A1 class leaders Michael von Rappard\/Paolo Buccini\/Glen Ebert.<\/p>\n
Class C was topped by the VW Scirocco of Richard Barram\/James Hay\/Paul Ansell while Daniel Flanagan\/Dean Chapman\/Caleb Hefren led the way in class D.<\/p>\n
Greg Boyle and Brett Stevens again led the way in class E, sweeping all practice sessions.<\/p>\n
The 69-car field will now be split into the top and bottom 50% runners for qualifying.<\/p>\n
The top 50% will be on track first at 1:45pm AEDT.<\/p>\n
