The 2013 V8SuperTourer season is a motor racing championship for touring cars held in New Zealand. The season will start on 16 February at Hampton Downs Motorsport Park and will end on 8 December at Pukekohe Park Raceway after seven rounds. All cars use a chassis built by Paul Ceprnich of Pace Innovations in Australia, and are powered by a Chevrolet LS7 7-litre engine. While the chassis and engines are the same (to provide a level playing field and hopefully allow the best drivers to succeed due to talent, not equipment), the cars can 'wear' body panels from any suitable model. So far, cars have appeared as either the Ford Falcon or Holden Commodore, but the chassis are a generic enough shape that a manufacturer such as Toyota or BMW could likely fit their bodywork to a Supertourer chassis and race as Lexus or 5-series model. There is set to be 24 cars on the grid in Round 1 at Hampton Downs Motorsport Park with talks that there also may be a Hyundai on the grid as well. It has also been confirmed that New Zealand Business BNT Automotive will be the official sponsor of the V8SuperTourer. Scott McLaughlin will start the season as the defending drivers' champion. ==Calendar== The 2013 V8SuperTourer season will consist of seven rounds, although only six have been confirmed. The date for round 6 has been set for November 9 and 10: Key: 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「2013 V8SuperTourer season」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
