NZ SuperGT
Does anyone know anything about this series?
Simon Wills and the boys at Team Dynamik have built a car for it, which from all reports sounds like a serious monster. He described it as being more anything-goes than Sports Sedans.... which I thought were pretty anything-goes anyway! |

I was in the Chesters pit in the round in December at Pukekohe, and the car is said to owe him well in excess of $300,000-$400,000.While it will definetly be a mean machine, I truly wonder if it will have the goods to outrun the Tuscan.That has had many seasons of development under its hood, top of the line equipment and a pretty handy peddler behind the wheel, but im sure with time Chester will be right on his bumper giving Carl a good run for his money.Chatters do you have any more pics of it?The only pics I have seen are of it in construction which Nick showed me at the meeting

Hi All
Does anyone know the cars origins? Is it a fresh build or an Ex-Supercar? |

What a machine!
Was it constructed from the shell earmarked for the long awaited but never built TD#004 supercar? |

Nick was really rather excited about it and the car will be a weapon. It will be interesting to see how it goes against the TVR and Owen Evans' 900 bhp Porsche. |

I guess that Commodore would not be legal for OZ Sports Sedans due to engine size??

Also has Holinger RD6S, a large part of Motec's range, and a lot of carbon and kevlar. Hopefully will have some test footage uploaded to Youtube soon if you folks are interested. |
