Service Crew (noun):
/ˈsɜː.vɪs kruː/
1. A three‑man mechanical triage unit—featuring Jason Dahler, Karl Schmidt, and Paul Jansen—tasked with poking, prodding, tightening, swearing at, and ultimately reviving George during rally service windows.
2. Experts in rapid‑fire repairs, known for diagnosing problems in under 12 seconds and fixing them in under 12 minutes, usually while George is still steaming, leaking, or having an existential crisis.
3. Informal: The blokes who keep George alive through sheer skill, caffeine, and questionable optimism; also the reason he makes it back into the forest instead of retiring in a dramatic plume of smoke.
4. See also: miracle workers, chaos wranglers, “it’ll be fine” enthusiasts.

Bear Electrical - Gold Coast Jimna Rallysprint results are up and despite some pretty average stage times, we kept it tidy, finished every run, and somehow landed 3rd in the Acworth Recruitment Clubman Series. We’ll take that 🥉
Massive shoutout to our service crew Jason, Karl, Paul — absolute legends as always.
Thank you to the officials and Brisbane Sporting Car Club for running another top‑notch event.
And hats off to Matt Sosimenko on his first QRC Clerk of Course role. Nailed it 🙌
Lastly huge thanks to iCar for their continued support and for the awesome new team shirts! Did you spot them in the service park…💜💜?
