Earlier this year, we were able to catch up with American Bret Curits as he competed at the Armor All Bathurst 12 Hours.

Racing with Black Falcon/Erebus Racing in a Mercedes SLS GT3, Curtis was thrown in the deep end with his first visit to the Mountain.  Despite a spin on the first day, he handled the conditions well, finishing second overall with co-drivers, Jereon Bleekemolen, Tim Slade and Peter Hackett.

Since then, he competed with Black Swan in LMP2 at Sebring, TRG in GTC at Long Beach and Laguna Seca.  He is also competing with Black Falcon in the Blancpain Endurance Series
