I have about 3 or 4 drivers that I rank as the best in the world at the moment. Shane van Gisbergen is most certainly one of them, so when SVG says things are not rosy it is believed without much reservation.

Supercars have invested a great deal in & are eager to see the new formula succeed - perhaps too eager. It seems then that the rosy picture (pun intended) the series is trying to push & maintain has yet to match up with reality.

During the chassis reveal, Jaguar Racing ran this "Razzle Dazzle" navy inspired camouflage livery on its car, which i found quite cool and reminds me of the test livery that Red Bull Racing ran a couple seasons ago.

The end of an era.

The mainstay Holden nameplate will disappear from the Australian Supercars Championship after the ZB Commodore retires from competition after this weekend's .

I've watched these touring class for years. They offer the best bang-for-buck, exciting, close racing compared to any other top tier racing series I've covered.

Excited for the Chevrolet Camaro era but for now, a salute & farewell to Holden.
