Shay Davis returns to SST Adelaide with CodeFish Racing

WITH Super Trucks Stadium are going to race again in Australia when they support Adelaide 500 in November, Shay Davis will also return on truck #88. CodeFish Studio And Gas station Creative will support his entry as CodeFish racing.

Davis made his SST debut at the 2020 season opener in Adelaide, where he finished fourth and tenth in the first two races before winning the third. This was the only round in Australia that year due to COVID-19.

Formed in late 2019 as the Australian SST Championship, the Boost Mobile Super Trucks team ran its only multi-race season to date the following year. Davis took two wins in Tasmania and Darwin, and finished on the podium in all but two races. He eventually finished second in the championship after losing a tiebreaker to Paul Morris, who had won four times.

Disagreements between series leadership and Supercars have led to trucks being sent back to America and the death of the Australian division after 2021. In 2022, Davis competed in the S5000 Australian Drivers’ Championship, winning once at Melbourne and finishing tenth in points.

After a break in 2023, the 34-year-old returned to action in the 24H 12 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps in April. Sharing a Porsche 911 GT3 with Earl Bamber Motorsport’s Adrian D’Silva and Martin Rump, the team finished fourteenth overall and sixth in the GT3 Pro/Am class in the first race, but retired in the second.

Prior to SST, Davis was a regular in the development of the Supercars Championship. He won the 2013 championship in the current Super3 series before reaching the top level for the first time in 2016. He made fifteen Supercars starts between 2016 and 2017, with his best result being seventeenth at the 2016 Bathurst 1000.

Adelaide was the first Australian circuit to host SST, from 2015 to 2018 and again in 2020. The 2024 race, which will be the Supercars finale, is scheduled for November 14-17; this is the second weekend of the year for SST, following Long Beach in April.
