Sharing the #88 CAMM Quarries/Concrete Racing Toyota Supra GT4 EVO 2 with Jessie Dixon, Torti was part of a significant turnaround following a difficult opening race, with the pairing improving from 29th in Race 1 to 14th overall in Race 2.
The result represented a 15-place improvement between the two races, with the Toyota completing the full 35-lap Race 2 distance and showing competitive pace throughout the one-hour contest.
The #88 Supra recorded a best lap of 1:36.6219.
The performance came against one of the strongest GT4 fields in Australian competition.
The Sydney event featured a 30-car field and machinery from seven manufacturers — McLaren, Ford, Audi, Toyota, BMW, Porsche and Mercedes-AMG — underlining the depth and variety of competition Torti is racing against.
With tightly matched GT4 machinery and a combination of experienced professional and amateur competitors throughout the field, small margins can translate into significant changes in position.
Against that background, returning in Race 2 to finish comfortably inside the top half of the field was an encouraging conclusion to the Sydney weekend.
The Sydney meeting, held from 18–20 September, formed the penultimate event of the 2026 Monochrome GT4 Australia season.
Torti will now turn his attention to the LIQUI MOLY GT Festival Sandown, where the final two races of the 2026 championship — Rounds 11 and 12 — will be held at Sandown International Raceway from 30 October to 1 November 2026
