2012 V8 Supercar Championship

V8 Extra's preview of the season, with coverage from testing at Sandown.

Sweet! Nice one Nicky, cheers

No bother. I'm sure this thread will be updated rigourously throughout the season by me and other Aussie V8 loving members!

I'm especially looking forward to seeing Murph in a brand new shiny works Nissan next year!

Is there nissans this year? That'll b different, it's time for change! Need more cars, like DTM, had the Opel, the Audi TT, now the C class merc., Audi A4, a new model from each AND BMW, the V8's need more, and need more ford drivers!!!!!!!!!!!! Im pretty keen to watch lowndes, windup, frosty and giz fight for the title and I'm hoping to go to Bathurst this year for the Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000's 50th anniversary!!!!!!

Nope, Nissan's in 2013. Chrysler looking at it too.

That'll b good bit more variety

The Last time Nissan and more than 2 Manufacturers were in Australia's Premier racing series.

This week's V8 Xtra

I CANT WAIT TILL THIS WEEKEND!!!

While we wait for Clipsal, here is New Zealand's newest racing championship, the NZ V8 Supertourers. A new category designed to be cheaper than the NZ V8 Supercar category, to be more entertaining for the fans and to be safer.

Hampton Downs has been on the cards for a while as a new venue, It may not look it but its not complete yet, there is a longer course yet to be built, but once the Hamilton Street Course runs out on the V8 Supercar deal, THIS HAS to be the next venue.

Yeah, you can see these cars are turning to the left from another bit of road. I heard about this track being built a while ago. Looks really good. Turn 1 looks very Mosport-inspired.

That second video... With Bernie putting pressure on Melbourne about a night race, are Adelaide perhaps putting themselves in a position for a possible Grand Prix?

Top Ten shoot out was awesome ;O)

1st race...wow ;O)

I haven't had the chance to see it yet. I'll post the Youtube'd race on here when it appears... if it appears..

But, all thanks to 'new' media, I've already found out who won

and what a win!!!

ill see it on motors tv next week, shame i have to wait so long as it sounded really good

Hope it gets put up on youtube be guttered if not

While we await full race...


And remember, after that first 2h15 minute race on the Saturday, they do it all again tomorrow!
