I have been a fan of V8 super cars for a while now. The rule for car entry into these events was it needed to be a production equivalent car with a minimum of 500 cars in the market place. Therefore, there has been a limit to the type of modifications available and the amount of weight loss that can occur. Bathhurst is the famous race for these cars, but there are many street circuits also. They are heavy cars, but have loads of grip. They are not known for quick acceleration and other than Bathhurst rarely have the chance to get to top end speeds. The appear to have a lot of understeer and drift through highspeed corners. Curb hopping used to be the thing for these cars until they added a racing rule to limit this. They have decent enough breaks 350mm to 400mm discs but it's a lot of weight to pull up almost 1500Kg
