2016 Bathurst 12 hour supports.
Do we have any confirmation on which support categories will be featured ?

Sports Sedans will be there, and from memory Improved Production as well.

HQs are moving to the Easter meeting, will the other categories follow them?

HQ's weren't at the 12 Hour this year.The 12 hour supports have never been V8 affiliated series.Will this change in 2016?Will the new organisers follow through on whatever plans James had for this or will they start again?

Apparently Combined Sedans were invited, so we'll see if that works out.

[QUOTE=one five five;3572095]Combined Sedans incorporate the Sports Sedans correct?
I'm unsure, but would make sense. |

Combined Sedans are not 100% confirmed is my understanding. Required entries achieved, deposits paid but awaiting that final green light from the new 12hr organisers.

Combined Sedan confirmation was received today so looks like they are completely locked in.

So radicals, improved production and combined sedans...that's likely to pretty much be it unless they want to try cram another series in. I know the hq's get huge fields and the drivers and teams are great supporters of events like this but I'm glad to see some better and faster classes on the program. |

I like the sounds of the Combined Sedans and Improved Production, i'd have rathered they kept the Formula Fords though over the single-make Radicals, the Formula Ford race on the Saturday morning particularly this year was a cracker.

Still needs to have Production Sports Cars on the bill. They are a perfect fit for the event.
Group O Q & R Sports / M & O Sports / S2000 would be great too. Who wouldnt want to see a 956 going down Conrod? |

Those historic classes are not allowed to run at Bathurst due to circuit homologation.Prodsports run at Easter.A number of 12 Hour competitors use that race as a way to build up track experience.

Allan's point about the easter events/6hr also removes some quality support acts from the equation. Still there are some pretty big acts out there that have a strong association with v8supercars...think Carrera cup, biante touring cars, v8utes. All would put on a great show and be an additional drawcard. |

Happy to have you on our side, brother! Hope your mailbox is big enough when the Central Bank of Nigeria sends your winnings in five dollar bills packed in suitcases, in absolute confidentiality so you don't need to worry about mailman getting to know our plans! Remember, the identity of mr York of London must stay in secrecy.
