Johnsons complete on-track demonstration

Three generations of Johnsons have taken to Queensland Raceway to complete a demonstration run in three Dick Johnson Racing Ford Mustangs.

Dick Johnson joined son Steven Johnson and grandson Jett Johnson on track, with the activation with the three generations of Johnsons a prelude to the team’s test day at Queensland Raceway.

“It’s a once in a lifetime opportunity to be able to drive with Steven and Jett,” said Dick Johnson.

“We pride ourselves on being a family team at DJR and to be able to experience this opportunity with my son and grandson is something I will never forget.”

Steven Johnson said it was a fantastic opportunity to be able to drive alongside his father and son.

“It was a very special morning, to have dad in front of me and Jett behind me driving around Queensland Raceway is a once in a lifetime opportunity,” he said.

“When all three of us were side by side, I was looking around and trying to take in what was happening. I didn’t know what to expect and it made the day so special to have the three of us on track, which will probably not happen again.”

Promising young gun Jett Johnson said he was grateful to be able to drive a current Supercar alongside his father and grandfather.

“It was a surreal moment driving out of the pitlane and having my dad and granddad behind me made this experience so much more special,” he said.

“I think it was a little hard to take it all in at the start, I was looking around and it didn’t quite hit me at first, it was something I will never forget.”
