One of the best touring car championships around returns to Motors TV UK in 2009 as the V8 Supercar brigade gear up for another season of edge-of-your-seat excitement and high-drama. Perennial rivals Holden and Ford will once again be locking horns as reigning champion Jamie Whincup attempts to defend his crown from a swathe of title-hungry antipodeans. With 500bhp, slick tyres and bumper-to-bumper racing guaranteed, this is nip and tuck tin-top action at its finest.
Don’t miss: Bathurst – 7 hours, 1000km and Mount Panorama separate the world’s finest from motorsport nirvana.
FUJITSU V8 SUPERCAR SERIES Formerly known as V8 Lites, the Fujitsu V8 Supercar Series, is the primary support series to the V8 Supercars and the perfect proving ground for the next generation of Australian touring car competitors to hone their skills before moving up in class.
V8 UTES
Identical Ford XR8 V8's and 16 Holden SS Commodores make up the entire field with a stellar cast of drivers that compete in conjunction with Australia’s leading touring car series, the V8 Supercars and V8 lites.
