Yet Supercars currently have more people wanting entries than available (i.e REC is worth good money again) and new rules for the next generation car which will feature a V8 engine with ability to upgrade in future to include a power regeneration unit. New TV deal which pays teams money to race, something no other racing series in Australia achieves. New Sponsors for naming rights of series plus many new sponsors on cars. Things look rosy to me at moment.
Seems to me that Supercars are set for the next 5 years on a clear path. Beyond well that's anyone's guess.

So what cars are going to have the V8 in them for the next five years. Remember the present cars are some years old already and will be irrelevant as far as representing current cars that are available in the local car yard. Any alternative motor is a fantasy at this time and would be a PR disaster if nothing else and I am a fan of BEV racing due to its simplicity and easily controlled power parity.
