Luke Youlden joins David Reynolds as co-driver at Kelly Grove Racing

Luke Youlden has been confirmed as co-driver to David Reynolds at Kelly Grove Racing for the 2021 Supercars Championship endurance races.

“I’m really excited to be joining Dave and the team at Penrite Racing for Bathurst this year,” Youlden said.

“It’s an interesting and exciting time to be joining the team, there’s obviously been a lot of change at Kelly Grove Racing which seems to be extremely positive and the team is really ambitious.”

The duo claimed the 2017 Bathurst 1000 victory together for Erebus Motorsport and 2021 will mark the 21st Bathurst race for Youlden.

“Winning Bathurst with Dave in 2017 was one of the highlights of my career, it’s something that I’ll never forget so obviously I’m really looking forward to giving it another crack this year after watching from the sidelines in 2020,” said Youlden.

“Myself and Dave obviously have history, we know how each other work and I’m used to driving the car the way that Dave has it setup so I think we’ll be able to gel together really well and hopefully have a strong result.

“We definitely have experience on our side, together we’ll probably be one of the most experienced combinations that’ll race at Bathurst which is cool.”
