V8ST - Te News, 2013
Thought i'd start a new thread seeing as NZ Motorsport and its presence on this forum has changed.
This thread should be used for anything news-wise relating to the SuperTourers 2013 season, rather than the individual round threads I thought this was an interesting article to kick things off... http://www.speedcafe.co.nz/2013/02/2...hter-strategy/ Seems Ray certainly has the expertise and brains to turn this series into a world class championship. Personally i think this is a very wise move to appoint Ray as the top dog, and is similar in concept to what has been done over in Aus. I also wonder if the #2 car will get a driver this year? Also seems that the teams and drivers are really getting a handle on the SuperTourer, with Ants amazing pole lap of 1.03.2 at HD, knocking 1.2 seconds off the existing pole lap by Kayne Scott. Will we see 24 cars this year, and will they all be Holdens and Fords? I hear that Hankook are looking at a car suited for them, which has been suggested by many is a Hyundai (Korean tyre company with a Korean car). If this happens this will add some new spice to the grid, and once again who could be the steerer of this. My source of this information cam from someone working in AV8. Anyway, will be interesting to hear peoples thoughts on this |
