KCK Lubricants, a proudly 100% Australian owned and manufacturer have teamed with Ben Gersekowski, with the Australian driver now an ‘official’ ambassador for the brand.

“Our team has used both the mineral based oil (Competing in Formula Ford) and full synthetic (Competing in Formula 3) over a period of 10 years without one failure, Gilmour Racing stated to KCK. “We have been given opportunities to use other brands of oil, given the success we had over the years with KCK we do not believe this to be an option. “To finish first, first you must finish” and our oil of choice has helped us achieve this over many races.”

Racing throughout Europe has seen Ben race on many famous and historic circuits. Some have left Gersekowski with fond memories and lasting impressions. “I can’t pick one favourite circuit,” He said. However, I do really enjoy all the old school circuits like Zandvoort, Imola, Monza, Lakeside and obviously Bathurst! At these circuits there is no margin for error and they make you really think to try and improve a lap time.”

With KCK Lubricants on board Ben Gersekowski is ready to take KCK Lubricants to the world stage as a KCK brand ambassador.
