The 2025 BFGoodrich Motorsport Australia Off Road Championship (AORC) standings after the Loveday 400 have been confirmed, with Travis Robinson extending his lead at the top of the Outright Driver standings with 1762 points after an impressive win in South Australia.
It’s been an impressive year for the 2023 AORC Champion, doubling up on his Finke Desert Race win in July, with a superb weekend at Loveday to clock up his second win of the season – in addition to a third place finish in Pooncarie alongside outright navigator leader Paul Currie (1762 points).
Extreme 2WD participants Beau Robinson and navigator Shane Hutt have battled their way back with back-to-back second-place finishes at Finke and Loveday to sit comfortably on 1352 points, after a sub-optimal outing at Pooncarie where they placed 25th.
Both pairings lead in their respective Extreme 4WD and Extreme 2WD class standings with Travis sitting on 1515 points apiece and the Beau with 1200 points.
Jared Percival and Matthew Gallasch round out the current outright top three with 1056 points, and maintained their run of top 10 finishes after crossing the finish line fifth at Loveday in their Pro Buggy.
Two class wins in 2025 for Norman Parker, most recently at Loveday, puts him at the top of the Production 4WD class with 1200 points in the class, while Dylan Watson leads in the navigator standings with 828 points.
Another class win for New South Wales pairing John Towers and navigator Bruce Young in the Prolite field, increasing his class lead to more than 300 points, currently sitting on 892. Sam Bentley remains on top of the SportsLite standings with 636 points, despite not driving at Loveday – which was ultimately won by David Adams, who collected 579 points.
Northern Territory representatives Gerry and Tanya Coop added another class win to their 2025 campaign and maintained their lead in the Super 1650 class with a victory last weekend (1006 points).
In the parallel SXS Championship, Glen Ackroyd holds a 106 point lead over Lachlan Bailey to take his second win of the season. The runner-up placing remains tight, with just 32 points separating Bailey and Greg Campbell.
A further 322 class points for Ross Newman puts him further ahead in the SXS Sport standings, taking his total to 886, and 550 points ahead of John White (336 points).
The next round of the BFGoodrich Motorsport Australia Off Road Championship is the St George 399 in Queensland on 22-24 August.
