The Stone Brothers
Ross and Jim Stone, two New Zealand-born brothers, are the team manager and chief engineer of SBR respectively. Ross won the New Zealand Formula Ford Championship twice in the 1970s. Since then, the Stone Brothers have been behind several winning teams, before forming Pack Leader Racing with former world champion, Alan Jones in 1996. The brothers bought out Jones' share in the team after two seasons and the team was renamed Stone Brothers Racing in 1998. Highlight of their pre-SBR career were engineering the winning Falcon with Dick Johnson Racing at Bathurst in 1994 and in the 1995 championship.
