“The level of understanding and the quality Eibach Australia produces make this partnership a great asset to our team,” Mineeff emphasised.

“We have already benefitted from their outstanding knowledge and skills. We are excited about what we can do together over the remaining rounds.”

Eibach Australia’s Operations Manager John Kayik explained the company’s 24 years of local market experience in supplying, developing and engineering suspension, springs enabling it to meet a wide range of suspension requirements ranging from street performance to racing applications.

“The Australian market is where we started our Oceania business,” Kayik said.

“We wanted to hone our products and skills in motorsport and provide this know-how to the rest of our customers.

“Working with Lachlan and Purple Sector will allow us to continue to do this, while providing the best products and services to our customers.”

Mineeff will next compete in his Purple Sector Volkswagen Golf GTI TCR at Sydney Motorsport Park for the fourth round of Supercheap Auto TCR Australia on May 27-29.
