Scott Dixon to TKR - Bathurst??
TEAM KIWI RACING INVITE FELLOW KIWI SCOTT DIXON TO JOIN THEM AT BATHURST.
Team Kiwi Racing will be keeping a close eye on the progress of fellow Kiwi Scott Dixon at the 89th Indy 500 race which is to be held at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway this weekend. Dixon, who has past commented on a number of occasions that he would be keen to drive a V8 Supercar at the daunting Mount Panorama Bathurst circuit may just get his chance to do so this year with the All Black team from his native New Zealand. Team Kiwi Racing Boss David John confirmed he has had a number of discussion with Scott's manager Stefan Johansson about Dixon joining TKR for this years Bathurst endurance race in October. "Stefan has confirmed Scott is keen on racing at Bathurst but we have gone no further than that, as Scott needs to focus on the Indy 500 race before further discussions can be finalised" said John. Dixon won the American IRL Championship in 2003 but has had an up and down season this year, while Team Kiwi Racing have proven that the TKR All Black machine is a very competitive race package which currently sits 6th equal in the Australian V8 Supercar Championship. If Dixon does drive with TKR this year at Bathurst he will be assured of a front running car that will have the additional benefit of further car and engine development before the great race at Bathurst, Mount Panorama on the 6th to the 9th of October 2005. How do you think he'll go in a v8 supercar? Has Dixon ever Raced / or driven a v8 Supercar?? Whats Dixon history before Indy cars??? |
