THOS Racing's new vehicle

The old Phantom GT is being given a new home.


THOS Racing's vehicle was taken out of a old and tattered fairing which has done its job for close to 4 years now. The former Deakin University vehicle needed a new look for its return to the Australian International Pedal Prix in 2010.

Getting the vehicle out of its old fairing was a task in itself.. and with the help of an Angle-Grinder it came out great. The old fairing was quickly claimed by Geoff of SlipStream Racing and that helped us alot as it would have got in the way, so thank you Geoff for quickly collecting it.


The teams attention has now turned to our new fairing build by Bendigo Youth Racing inc. They have done an extremely great job of producing a Fibre-glass fairing for our team. Thanks go to Bendigo Youth Racing inc for agreeing to build us a fairing at a comfortable price.



We were very relieved to find that the our vehicle fits snug in our new fairing. At the moment the chassis is inside our new fairing as we are marking up where things will sit and where we will either bolt OR bond the two together.


We will keep this site updated every week until our vehicle is finished. This team has a YouTube channel that we will be using to post up our video race reports. The links to these will be posted up after each race. www.youtube.com/user/TheAussieCyclist

Thank you,
THOS Racing
