At the Bathurst race meeting this weekend, he has been given the chance to work in the repair centre with Brad Jones Racing (BJR).

While he can't do everything the mechanics in the team can do, Mr Dennis has helped them with prepping the pit while the car is on track, cleaning up and rolling out wheels.

"The experience has been really open, very fun and just really, really great," he said.

"It's one of those things, once you get it, you'll have a taste of it and you love it. BJR has been really great like that."

Mr Dennis grew up watching Supercars on television and said it has been "a dream come true" to be able to work with one of the teams at the Great Race.
