Rick Kelly's dramatic resurgence shows no signs of slowing after dominating practice for the Darwin leg of the Supercars championship.
The Nissan veteran last month took out his first race in almost seven years. But he is gunning for more after impressing in both of Friday's practice sessions at the Northern Territory circuit.
Kelly was pipped in the final minute by championship leader Scott McLaughlin in afternoon practice to finish second but took out the first session with an impressive run.
The 2006 champion sits eighth in the overall standings, 484 points adrift of McLaughlin, but has a car capable of matching it with the Ford and Holden mainstays.
