I could see Toyota coming in 2014.Yeah I was extremely surprised not to see Toyota jump on the bandwagon, especially since they are a local manufacturer and they have their finger in nearly every other Motorsport pie - a lot more being a lot lower profile than v8 supercars too!Although with merc only just signing on, perhaps they have something in the pipeline too.

But they were still Fords... Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/78847-2013-v8-supercar-line-up/page/13/#findComment-1299054 Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the motors will weigh the same after ballast has been added. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/78847-2013-v8-supercar-line-up/page/13/#findComment-1299322 Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the motors will weigh the same after ballast has been added.Spot on, every V8 supercar has a minimum weight - regardless of what lightweight bits they add. 1350 something kgs from memory.If they are under they have to add ballast to that weight, if they are over tough titties.

I stopped watching the races except Bathurst cos of boredom. I'll be watching again in 2013 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/78847-2013-v8-supercar-line-up/page/13/#findComment-1301324 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you might be right the Dags. The cream always rises to the top.Although the same was being said about the current F1 season. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/78847-2013-v8-supercar-line-up/page/13/#findComment-1301430 Share on other sites More sharing options...
