'We had reasonable pace, but probably not enough to drive to the front and win the event, but definitely enough to finish in the top half dozen cars. 'We left pretty frustrated, so I'm keen to get to the Gold Coast and get the result I think we have the potential to achieve. 'At the Gold Coast last year, we had a really good top-10 car, and now we have the potential to move forward from there. 'I just want to get there and get back up the front. 'Regardless of the end result at Bathurst, it was still a real pleasure to drive the car around that track; we certainly have come a long way with the setup and getting the car to grip up on most of the circuits we visit these days. 'The Gold Coast is a good challenging circuit from a driver's point of view, and I also enjoy the longer races in the endurance format. 'There are two big long 300km races, and I can't wait to get stuck into them.' David Russell - #15 Nissan Altima 'I'm hungrier than ever at the moment to get a result, not only for Rick and myself, but also for Jack Daniel's and Nissan Motorsport,' said David Russell. 'We have all the ingredients together to get a really good result up there. We just have to have a good roll out. Hopefully the car will be in a nice window, which I'm sure it will be. 'It will be great to be back on a soft tire. Both Rick and I had some good pace there last year. Hopefully we qualify reasonably well and push on in the race for a podium. 'To be there in the Porsche Carrera Cup as well means that it's going to be a busy weekend for me. 'It's good to get the extra track time there as well. 'I'm up at the pointy end of the championship for the Carrera Cup. There's a lot at stake in that championship, and a lot at stake in the last round of the endurance cup as well.'
