Karl Reindler joins Kelly Racing

Karl Reindler has moved to Kelly Racing for this third season in the V8 Supercars championship, where he takes over from David Reynolds.

The 26-year-old from Perth, mostly remembered for being involved in a start-line crash at Barbagallo last year where his Britek-run Holden Commodore exploded in a ball of flames just one race after taking his career best result, leaves Britek to drive the No.11 at Kelly Racing.

“I’m very excited about my move to Kelly Racing,” said Reindler.

“To have Fair Dinkum Sheds onboard with me for the third year in a row is great as well and I’m looking forward to building on that relationship even further in 2012.”

“I had some time in the Kelly Racing workshop in January to run through plans for this season and to meet all of the crew and there is a really great atmosphere within the place.”

“The facility is just incredible and the fact that they are building more to bring it all under one roof just adds to that and makes it a great showcase for the sport. It’s the best facility that I’ve seen in the country.”
