It will be double the action for Supercheap Auto TCR Australia Series star Jordan Cox at EVENTelec Race Queensland next month, the Shannons SpeedSeries regular confirmed to make his Trico Trans Am Series debut.
With both series running across three days at Queensland Raceway, Cox will make history as the first driver to compete in both the TCR and Trans Am series’ in a single race weekend.
Cox will debut in the rebuilt second Hollinger Engineering car alongside Trans Am veteran John Holinger, who currently sits 15th in the Trans Am standings after four rounds.

“Excitement would be an understatement, it’s such a great category and especially this year with such a strong depth of drivers. Trans Am has really turned up a notch,” Cox said.
“I’m up for the challenge, I might have some back-to-back races between the categories but they’re both very unique cars and I’ve got enough experience in the Peugeot that I know how to switch on very quickly in that car.
“I’ll take any opportunity to jump in a race car and Trans Am is something that has always excited me, but I’ve never had the chance to race in the category before with the TCR programme.”
No stranger to on-track success in 2024, Cox will be hoping to continue the form that earned him his most recent TCR Australia win in Race 1 at Race Tailem Bend – his second victory this year after the series-opener in Sandown.
“It definitely won’t be easy, the drivers and teams are incredibly strong in Trans Am, but with a consistent weekend and ensuring we maximise ourselves I’m hopeful we will come away with some solid results,” he added.
Fourth in the TCR Australia standings heading into Round 5, Cox will be eager to bag a haul of points as he enters the Trams Am table alongside fellow recent additions, Brett Holdsworth and James Simpson.
