The toughest battle for points in the history of Supercars and Super2 took place in 2004, when three drivers went into that year’s Mallala final just 15 points apart. Representing the main game teams, Luke Youlden (Steven Ellery Racing), Andrew Jones (Brad Jones Racing) and Owen Kelly (Dick Johnson Racing) were the class of the field in 2004, having won all four races between them to date. . Kelly’s season unraveled in the first race as he finished the round in 24th place, while Youlden and Jones finished third and second respectively. Jones then starred in Race 2 on the reverse grid, moving up from 24th to third and moving within two points of Youlden when Kelly singled out with a comfortable lead. Greg Ritter took Race 3 and lap wins in a short start for Speed ​​FX Racing, while Jones and Youlden completed the podium once again, with both drivers tied with 945 points. Youlden had not claimed a round victory all season, while Jones achieved round honors at both Winton and Sydney, giving him the title on countback.
